About the Role
Titan is seeking a Technical Project / Program Manager to lead the execution of customer and product programs from initial definition through engineering, build, validation, deployment, and customer acceptance. This role sits within the Product organization and acts as the execution bridge between Product, Engineering, Software, Operations, Sales, and the customer. The successful candidate should have an engineering or technical background but does not need to be the senior technical authority on the program. The primary responsibility is to ensure that the right people are working on the right things, dependencies are understood, decisions are made, commitments are tracked, and programs move forward. This person must be highly organized, technically credible, comfortable working with engineers, and capable of bringing structure to a fast-moving environment without creating unnecessary process.
Responsibilities
- Own project and program execution from kickoff through customer deployment and acceptance.
- Develop and maintain integrated project schedules, milestones, deliverables, dependencies, and critical paths.
- Coordinate activities across Hardware Engineering, Software, Algorithms, Product, Operations, Manufacturing, Sales, and Customer Success.
- Translate customer and product commitments into executable internal project plans.
- Establish clear ownership of actions and deliverables.
- Conduct regular program reviews focused on decisions, risks, dependencies, and actions.
- Track engineering and operational resources across multiple customer programs.
- Identify resource conflicts and escalate priority decisions when required.
- Maintain program risk registers and drive mitigation activities.
- Track customer requirements, contractual deliverables, FAT/SAT requirements, installation milestones, and acceptance criteria.
- Coordinate prototype builds, factory acceptance testing, shipment, installation, commissioning, and customer acceptance.
- Work closely with Engineering while allowing engineers to remain focused on technical execution.
- Ensure changes in requirements, schedule, scope, or customer expectations are communicated across the organization.
- Coordinate internal and external meetings and ensure decisions and actions are captured and closed.
- Provide clear program-status reporting to Product leadership and executive management.
- Help establish scalable but lightweight project-management processes as Titan grows.
- Support multiple concurrent customer deployments and development programs.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering or another relevant technical discipline strongly preferred.
- 5–10 years of experience in technical project management, program management, engineering, or related roles.
- Experience managing complex hardware, automation, industrial equipment, robotics, instrumentation, or other multidisciplinary engineering programs.
- Demonstrated ability to coordinate multiple engineering disciplines and stakeholders.
- Strong understanding of product-development and engineering lifecycles.
- Experience managing schedules, dependencies, resources, budgets, risks, and customer deliverables.
- Ability to understand technical discussions without needing to become the technical decision-maker.
- Excellent organizational and follow-through skills.
- Strong written and verbal communication.
- Ability to communicate effectively with engineers, executives, suppliers, and customers.
- Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where priorities can change quickly.
- Strong sense of ownership and accountability.
Preferred Skills
- Experience in one or more of the following is highly desirable:
- Industrial automation
- Battery manufacturing or testing
- Robotics
- Automated manufacturing equipment
- Automotive manufacturing
- Semiconductor or high-volume manufacturing equipment
- Instrumentation and test systems
- Capital equipment
- Factory installations and commissioning
- Hardware/software integrated products
- Customer-facing technical programs
- Experience with common project-management and engineering tools such as Jira, Smartsheet, Microsoft Project, Monday.com, Confluence, ERP/MRP systems, or equivalent platforms is useful but not the primary qualification.
- PMP certification is welcome but not required.

Mid Level Project Program Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a mid level project program manager job?
Position your experience around ownership and outcomes, not just task completion. Highlight projects you led from kickoff to delivery, decisions you made independently, and results you can quantify, such as timelines compressed or budgets maintained. Certifications like PMP or CAPM strengthen your application, and tailoring your resume to each job description's scope and tools will consistently move you past the initial screen.
Which companies hire mid level project program managers?
Companies hiring mid level project program managers right now include aptim, Netflix, and Staples, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Hiring at this level covers large enterprise employers with structured PMO teams and mid-size organizations where project managers carry broader ownership across fewer layers.
Are there remote mid level project program manager jobs?
Yes, remote and hybrid options are widely available at this level. About 60% of mid level project program manager openings are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how common distributed team structures have become across industries that rely on project coordination to ship work on schedule.
How do I move up to a mid level project program manager role?
Growth into mid level comes from accumulating progressively larger ownership in your early roles. Focus on leading distinct project workstreams rather than supporting them, building relationships with stakeholders independently, and documenting measurable impact. Earning a recognized certification, developing proficiency in project management tools, and volunteering to manage scope and risk on real initiatives accelerates the transition from contributor to project owner.
Which industries hire the most mid level project program managers?
Mid Level project program manager roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Retail, and Education, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Those sectors tend to run complex, multi-team initiatives on fixed timelines, which creates consistent demand for project managers who can own delivery without requiring senior-level oversight on every decision.
