Program Manager, CS Tools & Technology

AI summary of the role

Flex is hiring a Technical Program Manager for its CS Tools & Technology team to own the systems, programs, and integrations powering customer support operations.

What you’ll do

  • Own and manage the team's backlog, sprint planning, and prioritization across all active workstreams, driving end-to-end delivery of large-scale initiatives such as tool migrations, live chat, telephony, and internal tooling
  • Translate business needs and operational pain points into clear functional specifications, user stories, and acceptance criteria — then personally configure, integrate, or guide development of those solutions hands-on
  • Configure and administer CS platforms — primarily Zendesk — including triggers, automations, routing logic, SLA management, and agent workspace design
  • Design and implement integrations using APIs, webhooks, and automation tools such as Zapier, scoping technical feasibility and maintaining scalable pipelines

What you’ll bring

  • 4–7 years of experience in technical program management, business systems, or support technology with a track record of increasing ownership and end-to-end delivery
  • Deep hands-on experience with Zendesk administration, including workflow design, routing logic, SLA management, and troubleshooting
  • Practical experience with APIs, webhooks, and automation tools (Zapier or equivalent) for system integration and workflow automation
  • Demonstrated use of AI-assisted development tools to build or guide custom solutions — this is an expectation of the role, not a nice-to-have

This is not a traditional TPM role. While you'll own program delivery, backlog prioritization, and roadmap execution, this role requires deep, hands-on involvement in designing, building, and operating solutions across our CS Tools & Technology stack. You'll operate as a builder-operator: someone equally comfortable presenting a strategic roadmap to senior leadership and then personally diving into Zendesk workflows, APIs, or automation logic to bring that roadmap to life.
