THE ROLE
Everpure’s Executive Sponsorship Program (ESP) is a strategic initiative focused on strengthening executive-to-executive relationships across our World Wide Strategic Accounts. The Executive Sponsorship Program Manager is the end-to-end owner of the ESP operating model. This role is responsible for account selection and prioritization, sponsor matching, engagement planning, executive briefing standards, lifecycle governance, and measurable program outcomes. This is not a coordination role. It requires structured program leadership, executive presence, disciplined execution, and the ability to influence senior stakeholders across Sales and the executive team.
Program Strategy & Operating Model:
- Define and manage the full ESP engagement lifecycle: intake, prioritization, sponsor matching, engagement planning, execution, debrief, follow-up, and outcome capture.
- Build and maintain the account selection and tiering framework (strategic priority, expansion potential, renewal risk, executive relationship gaps).
- Lead quarterly account prioritization reviews with Sales leadership.
- Own sponsor matching and onboarding processes.
- Establish and enforce program standards, cadence structures, and governance practices.
Executive Engagement & Briefing Standards:
- Partner with Everpure executives and account teams to design intentional executive engagement plans.
- Create and standardize executive briefing materials, including account POVs, relationship maps, meeting objectives, talk tracks, risks, and next-best actions.
- Provide preparation support for high-stakes executive meetings as needed.
- Ensure closed-loop follow-up after each executive interaction.
- Drive recurring executive cadence between Everpure leaders and customer executives.
Executive Enablement:
- Provide structured sponsor enablement, including 1:1 coaching, outreach frameworks, first-meeting guidance, and relationship-building best practices.
- Ensure executives are prepared, aligned, and positioned to deliver meaningful strategic value in customer engagements.
Insights & Continuous Improvement:
- Capture and synthesize insights from executive engagements.
- Share themes, blockers, competitive intelligence, and product feedback with Sales Strategy, Product, and Customer Success teams.
- Identify patterns and recommend program improvements based on data and field feedback.
Systems, Reporting & Governance:
- Own Salesforce as the system of record for sponsor assignments, engagement plans, meeting notes, outcomes, and influenced opportunity tracking.
- Define required data fields and hygiene standards to ensure transparency and accountability.
- Publish dashboards and executive-level readouts, including QBR summaries and program health metrics.
Strategic Program Leadership:
- Proven ability to design and operationalize structured engagement models.
- Strong prioritization skills across strategic enterprise accounts.
- Demonstrated ownership mindset with clear accountability for outcomes.
Executive Presence:
- Experience working directly with senior executives and navigating C-level environments with confidence and discretion.
- Exceptional communicator with a polished, professional presence — able to articulate ideas clearly, concisely, and with executive-level tone (both written and verbal).
- Comfortable leading structured discussions, setting expectations, and maintaining focus in executive forums.
- Demonstrated ability to influence, advise, and guide senior stakeholders with credibility and professionalism.
- Maintains a composed, disciplined, and business-focused approach in all communications and interactions.
Operational Discipline:
- Strong lifecycle management and follow-through.
- Experience maintaining CRM hygiene, dashboards, and reporting frameworks.
- Data-driven mindset with a focus on measurable outcomes.
- Ability to balance structure, scalability, and adaptability in a fast-paced environment.
Collaboration & Communication:
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills.
- Strong cross-functional partnership skills across global teams and time zones.
- High professionalism, discretion, and integrity when handling sensitive information.
We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara, CA office in compliance with Everpure's policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.
What You Bring
- 7+ years of experience in executive engagement, strategic programs, enterprise account leadership, or executive briefing environments.
- Experience partnering with C-level stakeholders.
- Proven program management experience in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
- Salesforce proficiency required; reporting and dashboard experience preferred.
- Bachelor’s degree preferred, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
- Willingness and ability to travel as needed (estimated 15–25%) to support executive engagement and strategic account initiatives.
The Annual Base Salary Range Is $114,000—$171,000 USD

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Program Manager Jobs at Pure Storage Jobs
Frame your PM credentials around hardware cycles
Pure Storage's Program Manager roles often touch product launch timelines for storage hardware. Tailor your resume to show experience managing cross-functional programs with engineering, supply chain, or firmware dependencies rather than pure software delivery cycles.
Target roles aligned with your visa status window
If you're on F-1 OPT, focus on Program Manager openings that list immediate or near-term start dates. Pure Storage's recruiting moves quickly once a role is filled, so applying during your full authorization window prevents cap-gap complications at offer stage.
Confirm LCA filing timing before accepting an offer
Your employer must file a certified Labor Condition Application with DOL before submitting an H-1B petition to USCIS. Ask your Pure Storage recruiter which legal counsel handles this so you can track the LCA certification step and set realistic start date expectations.
Use Migrate Mate to surface active Pure Storage PM openings
Program Manager roles at Pure Storage span storage, cloud, and go-to-market functions and turn over at different times. Use Migrate Mate to filter specifically for Pure Storage Program Manager positions that confirm sponsorship eligibility before you invest time in applications.
Prepare documentation showing specialty occupation alignment
USCIS scrutinizes Program Manager petitions because the role title is broad. Gather evidence that your specific position requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a directly related field, such as engineering, computer science, or information systems, not business administration alone.
Understand how PERM affects your long-term timeline
Pure Storage sponsors EB-2 and EB-3 Green Cards, which require PERM labor certification through DOL before an immigrant petition can be filed. Raise this pathway during your offer negotiation so you understand when that process can realistically begin.

Find Program Manager at Pure Storage JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Pure Storage sponsor H-1B visas for Program Managers?
Yes. Pure Storage sponsors H-1B visas for Program Manager roles and has a consistent track record of doing so across its technology and go-to-market functions. Because H-1B sponsorship requires a certified Labor Condition Application from DOL before USCIS filing, you should confirm the expected start date and internal legal process timelines with your recruiter early in the offer stage.
How do I apply for Program Manager jobs at Pure Storage?
You can apply directly through Pure Storage's careers site, where Program Manager openings are listed by function and location. If you need visa sponsorship, Migrate Mate is a faster way to browse Pure Storage Program Manager roles that have confirmed sponsorship eligibility, so you are not spending time on listings that exclude international candidates.
Which visa types does Pure Storage commonly use for Program Manager roles?
Pure Storage sponsors H-1B, TN, and J-1 visas for Program Managers at the nonimmigrant level, and supports F-1 OPT and CPT for candidates in authorized practical training. For permanent residence, the company uses EB-2 and EB-3 pathways, which involve PERM labor certification through DOL followed by an immigrant petition filed with USCIS.
What qualifications does Pure Storage expect for sponsored Program Manager roles?
Pure Storage typically looks for Program Managers with a bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, or a closely related technical field, combined with experience driving complex cross-functional programs. For H-1B purposes, your degree must align specifically with the job duties, not just management generically. Relevant certifications such as PMP can strengthen both your application and your sponsorship petition.
How do I plan my timeline if I am on F-1 OPT and targeting a Pure Storage Program Manager role?
If your OPT expires before October 1 and your employer files an H-1B cap-subject petition, your employment can continue under cap-gap protection while the petition is pending. Apply at least four to five months before your OPT end date to give Pure Storage enough time to prepare your H-1B filing before the April 1 USCIS submission window opens.
