Job Description: Technical Program Manager (Hackathons & Innovation Challenges)

Position: Program Manager

Location: Noida, UP, India (On-site)

Type: Full time

The role

You are the single point of ownership for every program you run — end to end, from pre-launch kickoff to the final debrief. Not the coordinator of it: the owner. Scope, the client relationship, and the final call all sit with you.

What makes this role different from a conventional program management role is where the ownership comes from.

You will be the trusted partner for our clients and the central hub for all internal teams, ensuring that every hackathon is delivered flawlessly, on time, and within budget. This role is for a natural leader who thrives on structure, excels at communication, and has a passion for turning ambitious ideas into reality.

What you'll own
- Technical program design. Problem statements, evaluation criteria, judging rubrics, and tech-stack fit. You decide what a good submission looks like and defend that standard to clients and juries.
- End-to-end program ownership.



Multiple concurrent programs from post-sales handover through delivery and debrief. Scope, objectives, timelines, and resourcing are yours to define.
- The client relationship, post-sales. Primary point of contact once sales hands over. You set expectations, manage change, and are the voice on technical scope and feasibility — including on what isn’t deliverable.
- Strategic program architecture. You build the blueprint. Defining objectives, resource allocation, and timelines is your domain. You ensure every component is technically sound and logistically viable before a single line of code is written.
- Internal cross-functional bridge. You lead the charge across Marketing, Operations, and SME teams. You are the glue that keeps diverse internal stakeholders aligned and focused on delivering a cohesive product.
- Risk and quality gatekeeping. Spotting friction before it happens. You own the mitigation s
