About the Role

We are hiring a strategic and detail-oriented Program Manager to lead and support two major cross-functional initiatives at Commerce:

Systems Transformation Program (75%)

  • A multi-phase program focused on the migration to a new Salesforce Lightning instance and the re-architecture of associated business applications.

Feedonomics Delivery Operations Automation (25%)

What You’ll Do:

Program Leadership & Execution

  • Lead integrated program planning across the Salesforce migration and automation initiatives, ensuring workstreams are aligned, dependencies mapped, and risks mitigated

  • Drive detailed program schedules and project plans, tracking milestones, deliverables, and change requests. Manage daily activities of scope management, project, and resource planning, progress tracking, proactive risks and issues management, cross-functional/stakeholder and leadership communication

  • Coordinate across internal project managers (Business Applications, Data, RevOps, Services, Product, and Engineering) and external vendors where applicable

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Partner with the Transformation Program Leader to ensure Systems Transformation risks, blockers, and decisions are surfaced and communicated with urgency and clarity

  • Work closely with Feedonomics Product, Engineering, and Ops teams to ensure project alignment and progress tracking for automation efforts

Reporting & Communication

  • Drive weekly program updates and executive reporting for both initiatives, including materials for the CFO, transformation leads, and steering committees

  • Facilitate key forums such as cross-functional syncs, risk reviews, and planning retrospectives

Execution Management

  • Maintain project health dashboards, risk logs, dependency trackers, and mitigation strategies

  • Ensure accountability across project contributors and follow up on action items with urgency and tact

Who Are You:

  • 5+ years of experience in technology project and program management, as a technical project manager leading medium to large software development projects/programs

  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Engineering or equivalent with a minimum of 5 years relevant work experience or equivalent combination of experience

  • Strong understanding of enterprise systems transformation—ideally including Salesforce or CRM migrations

  • Proven ability to coordinate workstreams across business, technical, and operational teams. Excellent organizational, communication, and stakeholder management skills

  • Highly detail-oriented, process-driven, and effective under ambiguity and time pressure

Bonus Points

  • Experience in SaaS or enterprise software, especially in operations, business systems, or delivery services

  • Background working with automation initiatives or AI/ML-powered delivery tools

  • Familiarity with tools like Smartsheet, Asana, Jira, Confluence, or Salesforce.

  • PMP or Agile certification is preferred but not required
