We're a growth-stage technology company helping brands optimize content performance and apply AI to modern marketing. Our culture is fast-paced, entrepreneurial, and highly adaptable—we move quickly, test ideas, and evolve with our customers. Through the Knotch platform, brands can measure the impact of their content, identify what drives results, and continuously improve performance across channels.
By combining performance data, strategic insights, and AI-driven capabilities, we help marketing teams make smarter decisions and get more impact from every piece of content they produce.
We're running three parallel tracks: our core analytics platform serving enterprise clients, a next‑generation AI‑powered product in active pilots, and a next‑generation cloud‑native architecture that unifies them. These aren't sequential phases — they're live, simultaneous, and all moving fast. As a Senior Technical Program Manager, you’ll own the execution layer across all three tracks so engineering leadership can stay focused on architecture and strategy.
This isn't a traditional delivery management role; the scope spans day‑to‑day sprint operations, contractor work‑stream coordination, platform stability, and a major cloud‑native migration program running in parallel. If you want to build structure and watch it directly accelerate a company at a pivotal moment, this is that role. Own release planning and sprint coordination across internal engineering squads and external contractor teams.
Manage and track product and architectural milestones as a formal program: what gets supported, what gets ported, what gets rebuilt, and in what order.
Bridge the gap between architecture decisions made at the SVP level and what engineering squads are building day‑to‑day.
Push back on estimates with technical fluency—no rubber‑stamping timelines that don’t hold up.
Manage contractor coordination channels and work‑stream intake so external teams stay unblocked without escalating upward.
You have 6‑10+ years in technical program or delivery management, with meaningful hands‑on experience owning multi‑track engineering programs in production B2B SaaS or data/AI product environments.
Proven ownership of complex, multi‑track product/engineering programs spanning internal teams and external contractors simultaneously.
Technical fluency—you can follow architecture conversations, challenge timeline estimates, and understand trade‑offs without writing the code yourself.
Experience managing platform migrations or maintenance‑mode transition programs in live production environments.
Strong async communicator: crisp executive‑level status updates and detailed dependency maps on the same day.
Multi‑cloud environment experience (AWS, GCP, Azure), especially live platform migrations.
Familiarity with agentic AI systems—LLM orchestration, MCP, or data pipeline architecture.
Background in analytics platforms, data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery), or enterprise content intelligence.
Experience running platform sunset programs or managing engineering teams through a product transition.
You understand how multiple workstreams interact and proactively manage dependencies.
Technical judgment: You bring structure, visibility, and direction to fast‑moving, undefined environments.
This is a rare chance to operate at the core of a company undergoing a major technical and product transformation. You’ll own programs that span three live tracks—the core platform, next‑generation AI systems, and a full cloud‑native evolution. The scope and complexity exceed what most Senior TPMs encounter, and the impact is immediate and measurable.
You’ll work with a modern stack—including GraphQL, GCP, Snowflake, and AI‑native systems—alongside a team already operating at a high level of technical ambition. 130,000–197,000 USD / $120,000–198,000 CAD depending on experience.
