About Truveta 

Truveta is the world's first health provider-led data platform with a vision of Saving Lives with Data. Our mission is to enable researchers to find cures faster, empower every clinician to be an expert, and help families make the most informed decisions about their care. Achieving Truveta's ambitious vision requires an incredible team of talented and inspired people with a unique combination of health, software, and big data expertise who share our company values. 

This opportunity 

Join the founding team of the Truveta India Development Center and play a pivotal role in shaping its future. As one of the early employees, you will help build and scale a high-impact organization while contributing to the products and platforms that advance healthcare through data and AI. This is an unusual chance to influence both the technical direction and the culture of a growing global engineering hub. 

You will be the program owner for the Data Platform work carried out in India. That means the data-source onboarding, the processing and quality programs, the governance and access work, and the release and adoption of what the team builds. It is a single, senior, hands-off-the-keyboard role with real accountability and no direct reports. 

Who we need 

We are looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager to lead complex, cross-functional programs across data acquisition, data processing, data quality, governance, platform delivery, and data-product adoption. You will work closely with engineering, data engineering, product, data science, operations, security, compliance, and business stakeholders to convert ambiguous data challenges into clear programs, measurable outcomes, and reliable production capabilities. 

You will have built systems and we expect you to read an architecture diagram without help, to follow a design review closely enough to ask the question everyone else missed, and to know from experience which risks are worth a week of the team's time and which are not. You will not have formal authority over the teams you depend on, so the job is done through clarity, technical credibility, and follow-through. 

What you will do 

In this role you will: 

• Own programs from problem definition and planning through delivery, adoption, and post-launch measurement. 
• Build and maintain roadmaps, milestones, dependency maps, risk registers, decision logs, and the delivery mechanisms that keep them useful. 
• Partner with engineering and data teams on architecture, technical constraints, sequencing, and delivery risk, at a depth that lets you challenge the plan rather than only record it. 
• Coordinate data-source onboarding, ingestion, transformation, normalization, enrichment, and validation programs. 
• Drive resolution of data-quality issues, operational defects, and recurring pipeline failures, including the root-cause work that stops them recurring. 
• Coordinate data governance, access control, privacy, security, metadata, lineage, and compliance initiatives. 
• Identify cross-team blockers and drive them to resolution without relying on formal authority. 
• Facilitate technical reviews and ensure major decisions, trade-offs, assumptions, and risks are written down where people will find them. 
• Coordinate launch readiness, release management, operational support, and post-launch reviews. 
• Prepare clear written updates and recommendations for engineering and business leadership across India and Seattle. 
• Improve program management practice, reporting automation, delivery predictability, and operational maturity at the site. </sp
