The Program Manager (Intelligent Optimization), Student Experience Tools (SET) is a newly created role, reporting to Dylan Morris, focused on developing a coaching tools strategy that allows for rapid growth while also building new products that allow our coaches to deliver an improved student experience. Your goal will be to drive positive coaching outcomes consistent with our mission to unlock opportunity for the 88 million American workers in need of upskilling and reskilling, with a double-bottom line business model that does well by doing good. 

As the Program Manager (Intelligent Optimization) of SET, you will:

  • Partner with the Measures, Operations Strategy, and Tooling (MOST) team, Student Experience (SE), and Tuition Reimbursement (TR) to document AI, RPA, and ML capabilities, limitations, and needs to form a prioritized roadmap of tools solutions
  • Partner with the Guild Salesforce team, Business Systems, and Product to deliver tools solutions, as well as identifying the need for new vendors, as applicable
  • Identify when needs, vision, and/or proposed solutions are in conflict between teams or with the broader goals of the AI, RPA, and ML tools strategy and find methods to resolve
  • Support AI, RPA, and ML through collection of requirements, identification and highlighting of risks, and recommending mitigation strategies across SE as needed for changes and/or launches
  • Multi-task and practice excellent time management while managing up to 10 projects concurrently
  • Manage AI, RPA, and ML projects from discovery to completion
    • Monitor and manage the scope, schedule, and timeline of projects ranging in size and duration 
    • Provide technical expertise and/or input on high-level solutions 
    • Assist in QA/reviewing deliverables prepared by the team before sharing with the end-users
  • Create or compile and maintain documentation through a business-centric lens (i.e., highly detailed but intended audience is a lay person within the business) including:
    • AI, RPA, and ML overviews (e.g., integrations, data flows, triggers, etc)
    • AI, RPA, and ML roadmaps
  • Play a supporting role in planning/prioritization of Salesforce and Business Systems team's work 

In this role you will collaborate closely with: Shannon Corocran, Dave Wiseman, Sean McKeever, John Romer, Mark Seifert, Jamie Douglas, as well as other various Guild teams. 

You are a strong fit for this role if you have:

  • 3+ years of experience in a project, program, or technical product manager role 
  • Experience working directly with AI, RPA, and ML providers within an operation at scale - helping a team evolve to operation at scale a plus

  • Exceptional problem solving, analytical, process implementation, project management, and logical reasoning skills

  • Self-starter with a high degree of motivation to learn and go above and beyond
  • Ability to execute quickly with high attention to detail in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
  • Comfort presenting to and interacting with internal senior leaders with the ability to win over strong personalities and reconcile competing points of view through data-driven storytelling
  • Experience working for both startups and established organizations a plus
  • Strong communication, interpersonal, presentation, and analytical skills
  • A drive to work hard and plan for how you can refresh/recharge while working in a startup
