This position is based in Munich, Germany.

We’re entering a multi-year transformation with two major migration programs: C loud migration towards AWS, and internal product & tech migration (moving customers from legacy integrations to the new platform).

These initiatives involve complex cross-functional alignment across Product, Technology, Commercial, Customer Success, and Legal. They also carry significant commercial risk, making structured program leadership essential.

Key Responsibilities

The Program Manager will orchestrate at the intersection of product, commercial, legal, and tech to ensure migrations run smoothly. The role is about customer journey, contracts, pricing, and cross-functional execution — not product development or engineering leadership.

• Structure and lead customer migration programs: AWS, different projects in the Tech & Product department.
• Build and maintain a master overview: customers, migration track, contract status, pricing implications.
• Align stakeholders across Product, Tech, Commercial, Customer Support, and Legal.
• Develop migration playbooks, scripts, and templates to guide execution.
• Coordinate customer communication and support, working with Customer Success and Account Management.
• Track risks like churn or delivery gaps, and escalate proactively.
• Introduce program management tools/processes: RACI, Jira dashboards, reporting.

Preferred Experience

• Experienced program manager with migration experience (SaaS / cloud / legacy-to-new product context).
• Consulting-style background would be ideal.
• SaaS & Tech industry experience.
• Comfortable with Jira and other project management tools.
• Strong cross-functional operator; able to translate between product, technical, commercial, and legal contexts.
• Tech-savvy: you understand migration dependencies, but not an engineering manager.
• Structured, analytical, and stakeholder-driven.
• Service-oriented, collaborative mindset — not "command and control".
• Fluent English required. Additional German and/or French is a strong plus.

Perks & Benefits

• Health & Wellbeing: Use your full access to the mental health platform nilo, including 1on1 sessions.
• We value personal and professional development: make full use of Udemy, our training platform with 24/7 access and unlimited content/course consumption incl. certification.
• We make your remote work comfy: we provide support on equipment and offer flexible working hours.
• We value collaboration & love to come together: regular onsite gatherings, internal initiatives and summer parties to connect outside of work.
• May your family require your attention or other reasons apply: use the benefit of our paid special leave days.
• Enjoy the possibility to combine work with a longer stay at your holiday destination or extend a weekend with our Workcation possibilities.
• In addition to the perks & benefits above, we offer specific benefits that differ between our locations
