Responsibilities

As a Technical Program Manager embedded within the Open Money Stack initiative, you will play a critical role in enabling Polygon Labs to deliver scalable, reliable, and compliant fintech and payments infrastructure. Reporting to the Director of Technical Program Management, you will partner closely with engineering teams to bring complex, cross-functional programs from concept to launch.
This is a hands-on, execution-focused role where delivery predictability, clear technical coordination, and strong collaboration across internal and external stakeholders are essential. If you thrive in highly technical environments, enjoy working at the intersection of distributed systems and fintech, and want to help shape how open financial infrastructure is built and delivered, this role offers a unique opportunity to have a meaningful impact.
You will own program execution for a major Open Money Stack initiative, supporting up to three engineering teams and coordinating across internal and external contributors. Your responsibilities will include:
Driving end-to-end program execution for Open Money Stack projects, ensuring delivery against agreed timelines, scope, and quality expectations
Planning and managing complex technical programs involving fintech and payment processing systems, infrastructure engineering, and third-party integrations
Coordinating dependencies and execution across multiple engineering teams, reducing delivery risk, and minimizing escalations
Partnering with internal engineering, product, and infrastructure stakeholders to align technical execution with strategic objectives
Supporting integration efforts with external infrastructure and fintech service providers, ensuring clear communication, sequencing, and accountability
Establishing and maintaining program plans, milestones, and reporting using existing TPM frameworks, tools, and methodologies
Identifying risks early and driving mitigation strategies to maintain delivery predictability across initiatives
Supporting successful launches by ensuring operational readiness, cross-team alignment, and clear ownership throughout execution
