ABOUT THIS ROLE

Senior Technical Program Managers are Audible’s relay sprinters, taking projects over the finish line like a champion from concept to launch.

ABOUT YOU

You thrive at the heart of the action. At work, change is the only constant – and you wouldn’t have it any other way. Transparency and consistency define your communication skills.
