You understand AI and LLM-enabled software development beyond personal productivity.

You can reason about agent workflows, governance, evals, telemetry, code quality, review burden, cost controls, and operational risk.

You are highly data-driven, but skeptical of shallow metrics.

drive the operating model

At Reddit, Technical Program Managers use technical judgment to define and drive large programs across multiple teams. They partner closely with engineering and product leaders to develop strategies and solutions, drive project impact, execute on planning, and gain alignment with cross-functional stakeholders. They engage with teams to determine root causes, identify and select alternative solutions, and use their technical expertise to understand the effects, impacts, and risks of a solution. Above and beyond program-level impact, they build execution processes and reduce inefficiencies to build overall scale.

This role reports into the TPM team within Reddit's Engineering Operations organization. As a Principal TPM, you will operate at executive and company scope, shaping strategy across multiple organizations, creating alignment where ownership is ambiguous, and setting the bar for how Reddit executes complex technical programs. High-quality technical program management is a distinct and high-value skill set, and while this role does not involve direct people management, it is part of Reddit's organizational leadership. At this level, success means delivering programs while also changing how teams think, collaborate, and make decisions so that new systems, standards, and behaviors can take root across the company.
