Technical Program Manager, Infrastructure at Sierra · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

As Sierra’s founding Infrastructure Technical Program Manager, you’ll help define how we bring our AI platform into the cloud environments of some of the world’s largest and most regulated enterprises. Working alongside Agent Engineers, Deployed Infrastructure Engineers, and Agent Strategists, you’ll own the programs & strategy that takes customers from deployment planning to agents live in production, and continue to support the upgrades and expansion that follow. You’ll bring your technical program management expertise to enterprise AI while establishing the playbooks and ways of working that help this new function scale.
Own the end-to-end program plan for a customer's in-VPC (Bring Your Own Cloud, BYOC) deployment. Translate customer requirements into a clear deployment plan, with clear workstreams, owners, milestones, and dependencies across Sierra and customer teams.
Drive execution across many customer teams (platform engineering, cloud provisioning, security, networking, model access, observability) and build alignment across customer teams, establish clear commitments, and find creative ways to resolve blockers and keep deployments moving.
Be the translation layer between our engineers and the customer's: define requirements such as model access, observability, and upgrade cadence, and turn technical discussions into actionable next steps.
Run the operating cadence for the deployment (standups, weekly status, escalations) so leadership on both sides always knows what's blocked, who owns it, and what it means for the launch date.
Partner with Sierra's Platform and Deployed Infrastructure teams to feed customer-specific learnings back into our standard deployment offering, runbooks, and tooling, making each subsequent launch more predictable and repeatable.
Define the TPM function at Sierra as we scale & establish the playbooks, operating rhythms, and standards that future TPMs and customer teams will build on.
What you'll bring
4+ years in technical program management, infrastructure or platform program management, deployment or solutions engineering, or a similar role where you were accountable for delivering complex technical projects across multiple teams.
A track record of bringing structure to complex technical programs, with strong attention to detail and the follow-through to turn plans into results.A strong technical foundation from infrastructure, platform, or complex backend programs. You can work through technical dependencies with engineers, understand how requirements such as networking, permissions, and provisioning affect delivery, and translate those discussions into a clear plan. You’ll deepen your knowledge of Sierra’s architecture and customer deployment environments as you ramp.
Technical curiosity and slope: You demonstrate the ability to learn new systems quickly, you ask thoughtful questions, build context, and apply what you learn to move programs forward.
Comfort operating inside large, complex enterprise organizations (change management, security reviews, ownership spread across many teams) with the persistence and resourcefulness to keep teams aligned and deployments moving .
