TA builds and operates mission-critical space and defense systems for DoD and federal customers, spanning on-orbit and ground segment infrastructure. Our government/industrial security program operates in a regulated, federal-authorization-first environment where ATO timelines, federal authorization requirements, and industrial security obligations directly gate our ability to deliver to customers.

We're hiring a Senior Technical Program Manager to drive the GOVSEC/INDSEC portfolio: the programs, authorization efforts, and cross-functional execution that keep TA's regulated workloads compliant and mission-ready. This is a senior, hands-on execution role for someone who can operate independently across a broad portfolio and hold operationally busy teams to realistic commitments.

It's also a matrixed role. It reports into the CISO organization's technical program management function, which sets your program methodology and portfolio standards, and is embedded within the GOVSEC/INDSEC team, which drives your day-to-day work intake and priorities. Within GOVSEC/INDSEC, you'll partner primarily with its Director for program priorities and execution, coordinate day-to-day with the team's Manager and personnel, and interface directly with the VP on portfolio status, risk, and key trade-off decisions.

You'll also partner closely with cybersecurity engineering, GRC, IT program leadership as well as cross-functionally across program delivery teams. Comfort operating credibly across all levels, driving detail with managers and engineers, and communicating crisply with executive leadership is essential.

• End-to-end program management for GOVSEC/INDSEC initiatives, from intake through delivery, using Jira and Confluence for tracking and documentation.
• Driving schedule and delivery for ATO/RMF efforts owned by the responsible security officers (ISSM/ISSOs). You track artifact production (SSPs, POA&Ms, SARs), surface blockers, and keep control implementation and remediation on timeline. You keep the effort moving; the security officers own the technical authorization content.
• Cross-functional coordination across security engineering, GRC, IT, and program/mission teams to unblock compliance-gating work.
• Execution rigor across GOVSEC/INDSEC’s operational security disciplines (OPSEC, PERSEC, and COMSEC programs), bringing cadence, tracking, and accountability to recurring and milestone-driven work these teams own and execute.
• Cadence and reporting: status, risk, and milestone communication calibrated for both engineering teams and executive/customer stakeholders.
• Capacity and roadmap planning for the GOVSEC portfolio, making trade-offs explicit and distinguishing committed work from aspirational.
• Capacity stewardship across the portfolio: maintaining a clear picture of team capacity against both planned project work and ongoing operational efforts, surfacing contention early, and enforcing the discipline that keeps commitments realistic. When planned and operational demands collide, you make the trade-off visible and drive it to an explicit decision by leadership rather than letting capacity be silently over-committed.

• 8+ years of technical program or project management, with a meaningful portion in a federal, defense, or otherwise regulated environment, and a demonstrated track record of owning complex programs end-to-end at a senior level.
• Core TPM craft, demonstrated at scale: structured intake and prioritization, dependency and…
