Role
Who you are
- If you thrive in high-ownership environments and get energized by driving clarity in complex situations, this role was built for you
- A self-starter who doesn’t wait to be told what to do; you see what needs to happen and make it happen
- Obsessively organized: you track every thread, know the details cold, and never let things fall through the cracks
- Comfortable moving fluidly between a technical architecture conversation and a business strategy discussion without losing the thread in either
- Pragmatic about process: you use it as a tool to get outcomes, not as a crutch or a constraint
- Direct and clear in how you communicate; no jargon, no fluff
- Someone who builds real relationships, earns trust fast, and navigates friction without drama
- 7+ years of experience in technical program or project management, with a track record of delivering complex initiatives on time
- Hands-on experience working directly with software engineering teams; you understand how software gets built
- Deep fluency with agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban, SAFe) and the judgment to know when to apply which
- Experience navigating cross-functional programs spanning engineering, product, and business stakeholders
- Strong proficiency with program management and engineering tools (JIRA, GitHub, GSuite, and equivalent)
- Experience working across distributed, international teams is a strong plus
- Background in B2B SaaS, e-commerce, or platforms is a plus
What the job involves
- The Principal TPM at Global-e is the connective tissue between engineering, product, and the business; someone who can operate at 30,000 feet and dive into the technical weeds in the same afternoon
- You will own the delivery of our most complex cross-functional initiatives, cut through ambiguity, and make things happen
- Global-e operates at the intersection of payments, logistics, tax, compliance, and localization across 200+ markets
- Our engineering teams span the US, Dublin, and Israel, running a sophisticated distributed platform: Scala services, Kubernetes, high-throughput event streaming, multi-tenant architecture serving thousands of global brands
- The work is technically interesting, commercially consequential, and genuinely hard
- If that sounds like the kind of environment you want to run programs in, read on
- Define and drive the execution strategy for our most complex, high-impact cross-functional programs—bringing clarity to ambiguous goals, aligning teams around a shared plan, and making sure that plan actually lands
- Identify the systems, teams, and dependencies involved in delivering new capabilities; build the overall plan others rally around; track it with precision and adapt it without drama when reality changes
- Develop a deep understanding of Global-e’s technical architecture and business model—well enough to ask sharp questions, challenge assumptions, and translate trade-offs between engineering, product, and commercial stakeholders without losing signal
- Own risk—actively uncover unknowns before they become problems, make the call on when to escalate, and drive issues through to resolution rather than just flagging them
- Build trusted relationships across levels and functions—from engineers to executives, from Dublin to Tel Aviv—so you can drive alignment and move fast without relying on authority
- Balance strategic and tactical: be the person who can help define where we’re going in one conversation and debug why a critical path is slipping in the next
- Shape how we work - not by imposing process, but by observing where friction lives, proposing lightweight interventions, and knowing when to get out of the way of teams that are already working well
- Keep senior leadership informed with crisp, well-framed updates - make the complex digestible without losing accuracy
Our take
Global-e pictures a world where international eCommerce growth is simple and profitable for retailers. To achieve this, the Israel-founded company - now with a footprint in United States, Europe and Asia - offers a platform with solutions to accelerate global, direct-to-consumer cross-border eCommerce.
Global-e is currently working to support the global expansion of brands of all sizes, recently partnering with Pitney Bowes, who will provide its logistics services, strengthening Global-e’s solutions for large organisations.
This, among many other partnerships and acquisitions in recent years, including Flow Commerce for $500M, contributes towards the company’s goal of being the leading end-to-end solution of choice for any size merchant. As an ambitious company with a reputable history and pedigree, continued growth for both its clients and itself seems inevitable.
