Senior UX Program Manager job at Outreach

Our success is dependent on building teams that include people from different backgrounds and experiences who can challenge each other’s assumptions with fresh perspectives. To that end, we look for a diverse pool of applicants including those from historically marginalized groups — women, people with disabilities, people of color, people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and/or gender nonconforming, first and second generation immigrants, veterans, and people from different socioeconomic backgrounds.

The Role

Design and Product Operations is having its moment at Outreach. The company is the leader in the “Sales Engagement" industry and its mission is to modernize and scale the sales process. As an integral part of this mission, we’re building a Design and Product Operations team from the ground up to help ensure our platform remains consistent, compelling, and unique.

As a Senior UX Program Manager, you’ll help us build powerful, scalable, and human tools to improve the workflows of sales teams and professionals. You’ll be a highly sought-after thought leader who raises the bar for design operations, program mechanisms and cross-functional collaboration. Working closely with Product Design, User Research, Product Management, Engineering, Go To Market, and other partners, you’ll ultimately be creating a platform that allows businesses to focus more of their energy and time on their customers.

At Outreach You Will...

Work collaboratively and create strong relationships with designers, engineers, and product management, leading projects through the planning, design, and development lifecycle.
Own the operational excellence of the UX team (roadmap planning, resource management, project intake, scheduling and tracking, communications, planning and prioritizing design deliverables, risk mitigation.)
Anticipate bottlenecks, provide escalation management, and balance customer and business needs against technical constraints.
Create mechanisms that increase visibility and alignment, and scale the team’s influence and impact.
Act as a primary point of contact for design, working closely with Design leads and Product Managers to proactively clarify requirements, use cases, and seek clarification when there is ambiguity.
Develop repeatable and scalable processes that help us plan, manage and deliver best-in-class experiences.
Evaluate and implement new tools with researchers, designers, and cross-functional partners to refine mechanisms for collaboration.

Preferred Qualifications:

5+ years of experience as a Program, Project Manager, UX producer, or similar role leading project delivery for large, cross-functional projects
Bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience
Background working in a collaborative multi-disciplinary UX team
Excellent understanding of UX design and software development
Experience building/delivering enterprise and SaaS products
Experience with program management for UX research
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Understanding of technical best practices and limitations
Able to identify and mitigate risk
Ability to translate UX decisions into clear requirements
Proven ability to work cross-team and influence direction
