Program Manager III

Day to Day

In this role, you will manage multiple complex, cross‑functional AI programs that turn strategy into tangible outcomes for Indeedians and their teams with minimal oversight. You will partner with business owners, product and platform leaders, and executive sponsors to clarify problem spaces, define success metrics, and shape roadmaps and milestones that drive sustainable adoption, measurable ROI, and a better day‑to‑day experience with AI‑enabled work.

You will keep teams oriented around outcomes rather than output, surfacing strategic trade‑offs and focusing leadership attention on the highest‑leverage blockers and decisions.

You will drive the operating rhythm around these programs, including planning, documentation, and communication strategies that help Indeedians understand where we are going with AI and how their work fits into that story. You will maintain clear, accessible program artifacts; proactively identify and mitigate risks and cross‑program dependencies; and provide concise, timely reporting that gives leaders and partners the insight they need to adjust course.
