Who We Are

At Realtor.com, we are building products that empower millions of home buyers, renters, dreamers, and real estate professionals. We aim to radically simplify the home buying/selling process, and to help more people achieve the dream of home ownership. To help us achieve this mission, we are looking for an innovative and customer-obsessed Senior Technical Program Manager to drive operational excellence on our RDC Next team. The charter for this team is to build and deliver innovative solutions across the real-estate ecosystem that deepen relationships with industry players, consumers, and brokers/agents. We are in the starting phase of the first product that will change the experience of agents and consumers through the home buying journey.

This role requires a leader who thrives in ambiguity, can quickly assemble and coordinate cross-functional teams, and is adept at driving clarity and accountability in high-pressure situations. You should have a strong perspective on how to foster effective collaboration, manage changing priorities based on customer feedback, and deliver results in a dynamic environment. You should be comfortable with tracking and leveraging metrics to support team health and performance, and advocating for on-time and high quality feature delivery.

What you’ll do:

  • Work on projects that are fast-paced, challenging, and varied
  • Drive cross-functional alignment across multiple teams and business units, coordinating planning efforts to ensure RMN initiatives are appropriately resourced, sequenced, and integrated into broader company roadmaps
  • Participate in technical discussions, discuss trade-offs, and partner with the engineering managers and product managers to come up with a delivery plan
  • Own and deliver high-visibility programs, bring visibility to stakeholders including executive leadership, send timely updates, and deliver results to consumers and agents
  • Create mechanisms to track programs, report progress, escalate, unblock software development teams, and execute on goals
  • Operate in a startup-like environment, working very closely across product, engineering, analytics, and industry relations, to launch and scale products that have the potential to be game changers
  • Facilitate effective communication and alignment among technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Drive continuous improvement in program management processes, tools, and methodologies
  • Provide guidance and leadership in ambiguous situations, clarifying ownership and driving accountability across teams

What you’ll bring:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Management, or a related field
  • 5+ years of experience in technical program management, with skills in program management, project management, technical deep dive, and operational excellence
  • 5+ years of experience working directly with engineering and product teams
  • 2+ years of software development experience
  • Demonstrated ability to lead and coordinate design and implementation efforts collaborating with engineers, product managers, and UX designers, coordinating across multiple teams to develop optimal solutions in an agile environment
  • Demonstrated ability to make appropriate tradeoffs to optimize time-to-market, clearly communicate goals, roles, responsibilities, and desired outcomes to internal cross-functional teams
  • Demonstrated ability to drive clarity and accountability in ambiguous and high-pressure situations
  • Demonstrated ability to deep dive and resolve issues independently, and exercise judgment to escalate when needed
  • Comfortable operating at different depths – deep diving with full stack engineering team as well as summarizing high-level progress and escalations for leadership
  • Experience with Agile and Scrum methodologies
  • Experience with project management tools (e.g., JIRA, Asana)
  • Experience with agentic AI is a plus

  • Knowledge of cloud platforms (e.g., AWS) and their data services is a plus

  • Certification in project management (e.g., PMP, PMI-ACP, CSM) is a plus
