Technical Program Manager

TL;DR: We’re looking for a Technical Program Manager (TPM) to drive Lovable’s most important cross-team initiatives from idea to execution. You’ll connect engineering work with company goals, remove roadblocks, and ensure complex programs ship on time, at quality, the first time, freeing our tech leads and engineers to focus on building.

Why Lovable?

Lovable is the software creation platform that gives people the power to act on the problems closest to them. For decades, turning an idea into software required so much capital, technical fluency, and time that many ideas never came to life. Lovable is the counterargument: a platform for all people with ideas, ambition, and problems worth solving. From solopreneurs to small business owners to teams at companies like Adidas and Zendesk, people have built over 60 million projects on Lovable since its launch in November 2024. And we’re just getting started.

We’re building a generational company from Stockholm, with growing teams in London, Boston, New York, and San Francisco. Our team is small, talent-dense, and moving quickly, with a culture rooted in extreme ownership, high velocity, and low-ego collaboration. We look for people who care deeply, ship fast, and are eager to make a dent in the world.

Lovable is one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential Companies and has been recognized on the Forbes AI 50 and CNBC Disruptor 50, reflecting our momentum as one of Europe’s fastest-growing AI companies and one of the most ambitious places to build in this next era of software.

What we’re looking for

• Proven experience driving complex technical programs across multiple engineering teams, from planning to successful delivery

• Strong technical fluency — able to understand architecture, dependencies, and engineering tradeoffs, and communicate effectively with engineers

• Exceptional execution and coordination skills — able to align stakeholders, manage ambiguity, and maintain momentum across teams

• A highly proactive operator who anticipates problems early, removes blockers, and ensures predictable progress

• Excellent communication and influence skills, with the ability to work effectively with engineers, tech leads, and leadership
  

Preferred:

• Experience as a Senior Technical Program Manager, Staff Engineer, Engineering Manager, or similar role in a high-performing engineering organization

• Founder mindset — comfortable wearing many hats and driving initiatives end-to-end

• Experience working in fast-moving startup environments where structure needs to be created rather than followed

• Ability to speak the language of engineers and collaborate with them as a trusted partner
  

What you’ll do

• Drive delivery of Lovable’s most important programs — cross-team initiatives that require coordination across multiple engineering teams

• Ensure predictable forward progress across complex technical projects

• Connect engineering work with company priorities, ensuring teams are aligned on goals and execution

• Identify technical dependencies, risks, and blockers early, and proactively resolve them

• Facilitate technical discussions and alignment across teams

• Draft and maintain key technical documentation such as RFCs and ADRs

• Build lightweight processes and structures that reduce friction in execution

• Remove coordination overhead from tech leads and engineers, enabling them to focus on technical work

• Step in wherever needed to keep programs moving forward
