About Kandji
Kandji is the Apple device management and security platform that empowers secure and productive global work. With Kandji, Apple devices transform themselves into enterprise-ready endpoints, with all the right apps, settings, and security systems in place. Through advanced automation and thoughtful experiences, we’re bringing much-needed harmony to the way IT, InfoSec, and Apple device users work today and tomorrow.
Some of the smartest money in tech has partnered with Kandji to realize our vision, including Tiger Global, Felicis, Greycroft, First Round Capital, and Okta Ventures. In July 2024, Kandji raised $100 million in capital from General Catalyst, bringing Kandji’s valuation to $850 Million.
Since Kandji’s Series C in 2021, the company has seen a 600%+ increase in annual recurring revenue, and its customer base has grown nearly 4X across 40+ industries. Notable customers include Allbirds, Canva, and Notion, and the company has partnerships with such industry giants as ServiceNow, AWS, and Okta.
Kandji was also named to Forbes’ Next Billion Dollar Startup List 2023 and recognized as a top venture-backed startup with the potential to reach unicorn status.
The Opportunity
As our first Senior TPM, you will help build the TPM function for Kandji from the ground up. You’ll create systems, processes, and dashboards that accelerate velocity without introducing overhead. Your work will accelerate decision-making, streamline delivery, and amplify engineering impact.
How You Will Make a Difference Day to Day:
- Bootstrap the TPM function: Define the foundation—processes, cadences, and tooling that match Kandji’s pace and culture
- Architect scalable frameworks: Standardize cross-product planning, risk management, and roadmap alignment.
- Drive cross-functional programs: Lead end-to-end execution of complex, technical initiatives including AI-integrated features and backend systems.
- Hands-on data & tooling: Extract data from Datadog, Jira, GitHub, internal systems; build and manage dashboards (using Hex, Omni, Looker, Tableau, or custom scripts).
- Technical collaboration: Engage with Engineering and Product for scoping, architecture, and technical tradeoffs with credibility. Spot blockers early and unblock progress.
- Accelerate AI adoption: Partner with engineering and product teams to scope and deliver ML/AI-powered capabilities, including model evaluation pipelines, RAG systems, and intelligent automation.
- Strategic program leadership: Report progress, surface risks, and inform roadmap decisions at exec-level; tie programs to OKRs and business outcomes.
- Enable Executive decision-making: Provide crisp updates to executives, surfacing risks and program health; drive strategic prioritization across the product portfolio.
- Bring clarity to ambiguity: Cut through noise, provide structured recommendations, and support go/no-go decisions.
We’d love to hear from you if you have:
- 5+ years in Technical Program Management at high-growth SaaS or infrastructure-first companies.
- Experience building tooling and dashboards from backend data sources (e.g., Jira APIs, SQL, Python).
- Track record of balancing velocity and predictability in program delivery.
- Proven ability to manage complex, cross-functional programs with a high degree of autonomy.
- Strong technical fluency. You can speak technical architecture, understand tradeoffs, and collaborate effectively with engineers.
- Exceptional communication and organizational skills. Ambiguity doesn’t faze you - you simplify complexity and keep stakeholders aligned.
- A bias for action and a pragmatic, delivery-focused mindset.
- Required to work on-site 5x a week in our Miami office (Coral Gables).
Nice to haves, but NOT required:
- Degree in Engineering or Computer Science.
- Experience in hypergrowth environments (Series C–D or beyond).
- Experience delivering ML/AI features into production or partnering closely with applied AI teams.
- Familiarity with responsible AI practices, SOC2/GDPR compliance, or privacy-related initiatives.
Why It Matters:
You’re laying the foundation - you’ll define how we operate as an R&D org. From day one, your work will shape how we plan, prioritize, and deliver as we scale Kandji’s platform and impact.
