Job Title: Program Manager IV
Job Type: Contract (12+ months)
Location: Remote
We’re partnering with a major financial technology company to hire a Program Manager IV to drive execution of a state-by-state regulatory integration program for one of their flagship products.
What You’ll Do
- Own and drive execution of a multi-state regulatory integration program, personally progressing roughly 25 remaining state integrations through to production launch.
- Initiate and manage operational conversations directly with state tax authorities, identifying the right contacts, obtaining required documentation and access, and building the relationship needed to keep each state moving.
- Coordinate each state’s testing and certification process, from initial engagement through production credentials and a live customer filing.
- Track outstanding actions, resolve blockers, and escalate appropriately when a state’s progress stalls.
- Work closely with Product, Engineering, Government/Corporate Affairs, and other internal partners so each state has a clear, resourced path to launch.
- Support customer-facing activities as needed, such as enabling specific customers for state testing.
- Build a repeatable playbook for engaging a state end-to-end, turning ad hoc, point-by-point work into a standardized process the team can run across every remaining (and future) state.
- Continuously improve the program’s processes, artifacts, and operating cadence to reduce cycle time.
Required Qualifications
- Strong program/delivery management experience, with a demonstrated track record of personally driving multiple complex workstreams to completion, not just tracking or reporting on them.
- Highly action-oriented, organized, and persistent, with the ability to create momentum on dependencies outside your direct control.
- Comfortable working directly with external organizations, navigating ambiguous or inconsistent requirements, managing competing timelines, and escalating when progress stalls.
- Strong cross-functional communication and stakeholder management skills.
- Enough technical fluency to participate meaningfully in integration discussions and know when to pull in a Product or Engineering specialist.
- Comfortable adapting to a new team’s tracking/workflow tooling; no specific tool is mandatory.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience engaging with government or state government organizations, pushing work through multiple states or agencies, adapting to both responsive and slow-moving counterparts.
- Experience developing repeatable processes and reducing execution cycle times.
- Background in tax, fintech, regulated industries, or government integrations.
- A non-traditional path into program management is fine; the track record of driving complex work to completion matters more than the title.
What We’re Looking For
Success in this role is about hands-on execution more than seniority or title. We’re looking for someone who has personally tracked down external stakeholders, kept a multi-party process moving, and closed workstreams out, not someone who has managed a team of program managers or lived primarily in status updates.
