Principal Technical Program Manager at Zillow

This is a high-level role for a seasoned technical leader who excels at the intersection of data strategy and executive execution. The ideal candidate has substantial experience as a Principal TPM or Technical Product Manager within a major tech environment, specifically driving large-scale initiatives across data engineering, AI/ML, or experimentation platforms. You should be someone who can speak fluently with engineers while translating complex roadmaps for senior executives. The standout feature of this role is the combination of **high-tier compensation (up to $284k base + equity)** and a **fully remote** lifestyle across the U.S. As part of the DESA (Data, Engineering, Science & Analytics) hub, you will be at the center of the company’s AI transformation. This position offers significant organizational influence, as you will act as a single-threaded owner for programs that define how the business uses data to move the real estate market forward. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have led massive, cross-functional technical programs from "zero-to-one" in a data-heavy environment. * Possess deep domain expertise in either Databricks/modern data stacks or AI/LLM-enabled products. * Are an expert at designing "lightweight" processes that organize chaotic projects without slowing down engineering teams. * Thrive as a "trusted advisor" to VP-level leadership, providing transparency and unblocking high-stakes decisions.
