Sr. Technical Program Manager

About Philo

At Philo, we’re a group of technology and product people who set out to build the future of television, marrying the best in modern technology with the most compelling medium ever invented — in short, we’re building the TV experience that we’ve always wanted for ourselves. In practice this means leveraging cloud delivery, modern tech stacks, machine learning, and hand-crafted native app experiences on all of our platforms. We aim to deliver a rock solid experience on the streaming basics, while cooking up next generation multi-screen and multi-user playback.

About the Program Management team

Philo's Program Management team is the connective tissue that makes our most complex technical and product initiatives actually land. We're a small, high-leverage function within Business Operations, built to bring structure and execution rigor to cross-functional work that cuts across Product, Engineering, and the business.

The team is led by the Head of Program Management, who reports to our COO and partners closely with our Head of Product and Engineering leadership. We own the portfolio of major programs across the company — things like platform feature rollouts across six distribution surfaces, billing infrastructure changes, and new product launches — and we make sure the right people are coordinating, dependencies are tracked, and delivery doesn't fall through the cracks.

The Program Management team at Philo is in growth mode— we've proven the model works, and now we're adding our first Senior Technical Program Manager to scale what we can take on. You'll be joining a team that has real ownership, direct access to senior leadership, and meaningful impact on how Philo operates.

The Role

We're looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager to own end-to-end execution of multi-platform technical programs at Philo. This is a hands-on execution role — you'll be embedded in the product development process, working daily with Product Managers, engineering domain leads, and QA to coordinate rollouts, enforce process standards, and keep complex cross-team programs on track.

A large part of this role is about bringing structure to work that doesn't have it yet. Philo ships features across a lot of surfaces: web, iOS, Android, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Samsung, Vizio, and more. Getting a feature from its first platform to the rest of the lineup requires careful dependency management, clear communication, and someone who can hold teams accountable without being a bottleneck. That's you!

You'll report to the Head of Program Management and work closely with the Head of Product and Engineering and Business leadership.

Responsibilities

Program Execution

• Own 5–8 active multi-platform rollouts at any given time (e.g., a new feature that was already proven on Roku now being rolled out to web, iOS, and Android; or billing flow changes across all distribution platforms)
• Drive programs end-to-end: scoping, requirements, technical design coordination, implementation tracking, testing, launch, and post-launch retro
• Build and maintain project schedules, milestone tracking, and dependency maps across engineering domains
• Track sprint and marathon commitments across domain teams; surface blockers early and drive resolution
• Document decisions, action items, and outcomes in Notion; track action items through to completion
• Lead program-level meetings including kickoffs and cross-team syncs
• Present program progress in planning meetings and other forums as needed

Cross-Domain Coordination

• Coordinate work across Philo's engineering domain teams on complex multi-domain programs
• Ensure platform-specific requirements are captured and that no surface gets left behind
