At FanDuel, our principle of “We Are One Team” runs through all our offices across the globe, and you can expect to be a part of an exciting company with many opportunities to grow and be successful.

THE POSITION
Our roster has an opening with your name on it
The purpose of the Senior TPM role is to own the delivery of critical technical programs that improve our product, architecture, and delivery model. This role is more than facilitating - we bring our technical depth to bear, helping to define complex solutions across multiple verticals, including technical trade-off discussions. When not driving complex programs, we are championing Delivery Excellence, using empirical data to help teams identify and implement areas of improvement.

In this role, you will be the owner of multiple technical programs. Your focus will be on successfully delivering improvements to an existing technology platform, working to achieve a defined program’s goals, working across multiple teams within an Engineering vertical, and driving collaboration with other verticals and domains. You will be supported and guided by your peers to achieve successful outcomes. You’ll understand the consequences of technical decisions in the larger business context and will be a subject matter expert for this program, partnering with product, commercial, and engineering to ensure we balance customer experience with speed of delivery. You’ll collaborate with colleagues across engineering to get their input and work diligently to meet timelines, mitigate risks, and use data to drive your decisions.


THE GAME PLAN
Everyone on our team has a part to play

  • Own the delivery of technical programs with impact across the engineering vertical, domain or organisation.
  • Demonstrate ownership for your programs, stepping in to own and resolve risks & issues before they impact the program.
  • Pro-actively identify and highlight dependencies between teams, ensuring that these are either removed or managed.
  • Maintain a plan that reflects reality and aligns teams and stakeholders on the program direction.
  • Use your engineering know-how, working with Sr. Engineers to identify architectural weakness and pressure-test solutions.
  • Serve as a subject matter expert and single point of contact for the program. 
  • Grow into your role and be willing to learn.
  • Balance trade-off decisions between short-term and long-term needs, taking into consideration both customer outcomes and technical strategy.
  • Gather empirical data to identify and implement opportunities to improve how we deliver.
  • Establish valuable delivery insights and metrics which teams can use to drive continuous improvement.
  • Provide input to longer-term planning activities at vertical and domain level.


THE STATS
What we're looking for in our next teammate

  • Previous Technical Program Management experience. Alternatively, Program Manager, Software Engineering Manager or Scrum Master experience working closely with Engineering teams.
  • Good negotiation and communication skills.
  • Experience working with DevOps, Engineering and Developer Platforms.
  • A pragmatic approach that focuses on the customer and program outcomes over rigid process.


PLAYER BENEFITS
