Job#: 3051922

Job Description:

Growth and Operations Program Manager

Location: REDMOND, Washington (Remote)

Pay: $52.00-$58.00 Hourly

Role Overview

The main function of this role is to plan, direct, or coordinate activities in fields such as engineering, research and development, and product roll-out. The Growth and Operations Program Manager will own the end-to-end execution of region launches and associated pricing actions. This is a hands-on, technical pricing and launch operations role supporting the pricing and monetization team within the Business Planning team of a Cloud Marketing organization.

Key Responsibilities

• Coordinate projects, making detailed plans to accomplish goals and directing the integration of technical activities.
• Pull and analyze underlying data, converting approved pricing and launch decisions into the artifacts required by execution systems.
• Validate system outputs against the original intent and drive each item through to submission.
• Manage a portfolio of active region launches, tracking milestones and dependencies.
• Surface risks early and coordinate with Engineering, Business Planning, Operations, and Commerce teams.
• Present and explain proposals, reports, and findings to stakeholders.
• Confer with management, production, and marketing staff to discuss project specifications and procedures.
• Review and recommend or approve contracts and cost estimates.

Required Qualifications

Education: A bachelor's degree in business administration or a related field is required.

Experience: 5-7 years of relevant experience is required.

Skills:

• Verbal and written communication skills, problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and interpersonal skills.
• Ability to work independently and manage one's time.
• Knowledge of business and management principles involved in strategic planning, resource allocation, and production methods.
• Proficiency with computer software, such as MS Word, MS PowerPoint, MS Project, and Visio.

Preferred Qualifications

• PMI or PMP certification is preferred.
• Exposure to tooling systems such as MLC and MLC 2.0, Partner Center, and Cayman is beneficial.

Additional Information

On a typical day the contractor is working on one of four core activities, usually across several active region launches at the same time. The mix shifts with the launch calendar: heavier on data and analysis early in a cycle, heavier on execution and validation as submission dates approach.

1. Data extraction and analysis

Pull pricing and region information from internal repositories using SQL and KQL, then run ad-hoc analysis in Excel using (VLOOKUP/ XLOOKUP/ Pivots) to surface the insight that enables a pricing or launch action. The contractor is expected to build the analysis themselves rather than wait on engineering support.

2. Pricing execution (LRT creation and MLC triage)

Once a pricing action is decided, the contractor converts it into the required artifacts and drives the item through the process to submission. This is the highest-volume part of the role.

Translate the approved pricing intent into the required analytic format through LRT creation, checking the inputs before they go forward.

Create MLC cards, complete the required fields, and drive each item through the MLC and MLC 2.0 process.

Manage change requests through execution, tracking status and chasing the dependencies that hold an item up.

3. Validation

Validation is where errors get caught before they reach the market, and it carries the most quality risk in the role. The contractor validates the Partner Center change summary, the output of a pricing action, against the original pricing intent and our established pricing principles.

Run the validation tool and reconcile the change summary against the original intent.

Triage the errors Partner Center throws, identify the underlying cause, and correct the input rather than working around the symptom.

Confirm that changes flow through correctly, with no regression to existing prices, offers or regions.

4. Project and launch management

Track progress against milestones and dependencies, follow up on blockers and missing inputs, keep execution artifacts current (MLC records, LRTs, tracking tools, status reports), and coordinate with Engineering, Business Planners and downstream teams to clarify launch intent and confirm readiness for submission. Risks are raised early with a proposed mitigation, not once a date has slipped.

Operating rhythm - The week is shaped by the region launch calendar.

Daily: Attend daily scrums, triage incoming requests and Partner Center errors, progress active LRTs and MLC cards, and work down the validation queue.

Weekly: launch reviews and sync points with Business Planners and Launch Leader teams, plus tracker and status reporting updates.

Milestone-driven: concentrated execution and validation pushes ahead of submission and launch dates.
