Technical Project Manager (Local to Mexico only)
Quick Overview
Job Description
Role : Senior Technical Program Manager.
Location: Mexico
Summary
Senior Technical Project Manager to support the Cybersecurity Program Office''s growing
portfolio of security initiatives. This is a senior, hands-on role responsible for scoping and
driving execution of complex, cross-functional security initiatives -- taking direction from
ambiguity to an actionable, resourced plan. The initial assignment is a cross-functional security
infrastructure initiative, with additional initiatives added to this person''s portfolio over time.
Responsibilities
● Lead scoping of assigned security initiatives from directional strategy into an executable
plan -- sequencing, dependencies, resourcing, and concrete milestones.
● For the initial assignment: lead scoping of a multi-workstream security infrastructure
initiative, including defining transition criteria for retiring legacy systems and executing
planned decommissioning once those criteria are met.
● Own ongoing coordination, scheduling, and cross-team communication across security,
network engineering, end-user computing, and cloud operations.
● Serve as a primary point of contact for external technical partners and vendors supporting
initiative delivery, managing communications and holding delivery accountable to agreed
scope, timelines, and SLAs.
● Maintain real-time visibility into initiative health -- tracking milestones, budget/resourcing
burn, and risk logs -- and provide executive-level status updates to the CPO Leader and
key stakeholders.
● Track dependencies, risks, and open decisions; keep documentation current as initiatives
evolve.
● Partner with technical leads, who remain focused on technical design and build, rather
than day-to-day coordination and tracking.
Working Style
● Pragmatic, reliable, and action-oriented -- moves initiatives forward rather than just
tracking them.
● Ability to navigate ambiguity and evolving dynamics with a structured approach.
● Comfortable working in autonomous, self-directed environments with a high degree of
ownership.
● Proactive and independent; able to initiate and drive full initiatives without close direction.
● Strong cross-functional collaborator who builds working relationships inside and outside
the organization.
● Able to quickly distill a situation and recommend a course of action to keep delivery
moving.
Qualifications
● Demonstrated experience scoping an initiative from directional strategy into an executable
plan -- this is not a pure execution/tracking role, or equivalent experience.
● 8+ years of technical project management experience, including senior or lead-level
ownership of complex, cross-functional initiatives, or equivalent experience.
● PMP, PMI-ACP, CSM, or similar certification demonstrating mastery of both Agile and
traditional project management methodologies, or equivalent experience.
● Strong technical fluency -- able to genuinely understand the engineering constructs of the
initiatives they lead, even without a hands-on engineering background themselves.
● Strong cross-functional collaboration skills; able to work across technical and business
stakeholders without close oversight.
● Executive-ready communication skills -- comfortable presenting status and options to
senior stakeholders, not just peers, and translating technical progress into clear,
value-based narratives for non-technical audiences.
● High level of comfort with project management and collaboration tools such as
Smartsheet, Google Workspace, Jira, Confluence, and AWS.
● Pragmatic, reliable, and action-oriented working style
