Avalara is transforming tax compliance into a seamless, automated digital experience. Within our Micro & Emerging Business unit, we are building a unified self-serve compliance platform for small merchants and lodging operators by bringing DAVO and MyLodgeTax together.
As a Senior Program Manager, you will lead the cross-functional operations of this flagship initiative. You will drive alignment, accountability, and execution across dedicated engineering teams, central platform groups, business development, billing systems, and shared services. Reporting to Evan Wright (VP & GM, SMB Business), this role gives you startup-style agility and scope backed by the data, customers, and infrastructure of an established global SaaS leader.
Lead program delivery. Own the integrated plan, milestones, and critical path for the DAVO and MyLodgeTax consolidation, including the platform rebuild, customer migration, and security and compliance deadlines.
Run the cross-team operating model. Set up operating rhythms, dependency maps, and clear service agreements with engineering, central platform, business development, filing operations, and corporate systems teams.
Drive billing and systems work. Coordinate roadmaps and delivery for card and ACH checkout, self-serve pricing and quoting, HubSpot, ERP integrations, and the APIs underneath them.
Align partner integrations. Coordinate timelines across POS and property-management integrations, marketplace apps, and integration partners so customers can sign up and onboard without talking to sales.
Give executives clear visibility. Build dashboards tracking self-serve conversion, support volume, and acquisition economics, and write decision memos that make trade-offs easy to act on.
Modernize how programs run. Use AI tools for status updates, risk detection, and documentation, and help CPMO turn what works here into playbooks for the rest of Avalara.

Senior Level Production Operations Specialist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a senior level production operations specialist job?
Employers hiring at the senior level look for candidates who have owned production outcomes, not just supported them. Demonstrating that you have led process improvements, managed cross-functional projects, and mentored junior staff gives you a clear edge. Tailor your resume to show measurable results, such as cycle time reductions or throughput gains, and be ready to speak to how you have influenced operational decisions at a strategic level.
Which companies hire senior level production operations specialists?
Companies hiring senior level production operations specialists right now include Amazon, TAS Energy, and Stripe, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring tends to come from mid-size to large manufacturers, logistics firms, and industrial companies that need experienced professionals to lead complex, high-stakes production environments.
Are there remote senior level production operations specialist jobs?
Yes, though many roles at this level still require an on-site or hybrid presence given the hands-on nature of production oversight. About 28% of senior level production operations specialist openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with fully remote positions more common in roles focused on systems, analytics, or multi-site coordination rather than floor-level operations.
What makes a production operations specialist role senior level?
Senior level roles are defined by scope and ownership. Where mid-level specialists execute within defined processes, senior specialists are expected to design those processes, identify systemic inefficiencies, and lead the initiatives that fix them. These roles typically involve mentoring less experienced staff, coordinating across departments, and presenting operational recommendations directly to leadership.
Which industries hire the most senior level production operations specialists?
Senior level production operations specialist roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Manufacturing, and Automotive, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at this level because they operate complex, high-volume production environments where experienced specialists with strong process and leadership skills directly affect output quality and cost efficiency.
