Program Manager

Blockdaemon is looking for a Program Manager to own the end-to-end delivery of our most strategic customer engagements. This role sits at the center of our highest-value relationships: large, complex, multi-stakeholder implementations with Tier 1 institutional customers, including banks, financial infrastructure providers, and other major enterprises adopting digital asset infrastructure.

This is not a roadmap or backlog-prioritization role. You won't be running sprint ceremonies for an internal product team. Instead, you'll be the connective tissue between Blockdaemon and our most important customers: structuring their engagements, driving execution against a plan, and ensuring flawless communication at every level - including with senior executives on both sides of the table.

The ideal candidate has run high-stakes, high-visibility programs before (ideally involving enterprise or institutional clients) and is equally comfortable in a detailed project plan and in a room with a customer's C-suite.

Your Impact

• Own program management for a portfolio of Tier 1 customer engagements from kickoff through go-live and into steady state, acting as the primary point of accountability for structure, timeline, and execution — continuously improving the playbooks, templates, and best practices that raise the bar across the team.

• Build and maintain detailed project plans, tracking scope, milestones, dependencies, RAID logs, and owners; proactively drive execution, unblock work, and escalate appropriately when engagement health is at risk.

• Serve as the primary program-level point of contact for customers, building trusted relationships with stakeholders up to and including executive sponsors.

• Design and run a consistent cadence of engagement communication: status updates, steering committee meetings, executive business reviews, and ad hoc escalations.

• Produce clear, executive-ready reporting for both internal leadership and customer executives, translating technical and operational detail into business-relevant narratives.

• Coordinate cross-functionally with Sales, Account Management, Solutions Architecture, Product, Engineering, Support, Operations, and Legal/Compliance — managing multiple concurrent high-touch engagements while prioritizing effectively across competing timelines and stakeholder needs.

• Own internal reporting on portfolio health, surfacing patterns, risks, and resourcing needs to leadership.

Role Requirements

• 6+ years of program or project management experience, with a track record of managing large, complex, external-facing engagements (ideally with enterprise, institutional, or financial services customers).

• Exceptional executive communication skills, written and verbal; comfortable presenting to senior stakeholders, including C-level executives, and producing polished reporting such as status decks, executive summaries, and steering committee materials.

• Proven ability to build and drive detailed project plans and hold cross-functional teams accountable to them, without formal authority over those teams.

• Strong track record of structuring ambiguous, complex engagements into clear plans, workstreams, and reporting cadences.

• Strong risk and issue management discipline combined with comfort operating in fast-moving environments: able to spot problems early, drive resolution, and know when to escalate, all while managing multiple high-stakes engagements concurrently.

• A calm, organized, detail-oriented operator who instills confidence in both customers and internal teams under pressure.

• Based in the US (East Coast), with flexibility to work customer hours across time zones and travel as needed for key milestones and executive meetings.
