Operations Program Manager

RESPONSIBILITIES

Kforce has an enterprise client seeking a Operations Program Manager in Seattle, WA.

A Day in the Life

You will start the morning reviewing open partner tickets, checking which onboarding milestones are at risk, and prepping for a partner call where you will walk a new content provider through their feed integration setup in Creator Studio. Mid-morning, you will join a standup with engineering to escalate a metadata ingestion bug affecting three partners across two marketplaces, providing reproduction steps and a proposed fix.

Responsibilities

• Manage end-to-end partner onboarding projects, stepping in when non-standard situations arise or escalations are needed
• Serve as first line of operational support for partners experiencing content pipeline, metadata, feed, or payment issues
• Join external partner calls to walk through technical integration requirements (MRSS/JSON feeds, metadata schemas, content ingestion workflows) and Creator Studio capabilities
• Interface with BDs and partners across international marketplaces to ensure onboarding processes scale across new locales
• Define and propose tooling feature requirements based on patterns observed in partner issues and feedback
• Track engineering tickets on behalf of partners, provide clear context to dev teams, and drive resolution timelines
• Build mechanisms to report onboarding progress, partner health, and issue trends to leadership
• Drive international expansion readiness including per-region payment setup, metadata localization, rights verification, and QA
• Identify and implement process improvements that reduce partner time-to-live and decrease repeat issues
• Manage a recurring cadence of partner syncs, tracking open issues and coordinating resolution
• Communicate program status, risks, and trade-offs to Directors and VPs through written narratives

REQUIREMENTS

• 5+ years of program or project management experience
• Experience managing cross-functional projects with technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Experience with content operations, partner onboarding, or platform enablement at scale
• Strong written and verbal communication skills

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with content delivery pipelines, feed management, or streaming media operations
• Experience working with international partners across multiple time zones and locales
• Familiarity with self-service tooling platforms and product feedback loops
• Comfort operating across BD, Product, and Engineering in a fast-moving environment
• Track record of building operational mechanisms from scratch
