Job Details

OUR VISION: THE WORLD. SUBSCRIBED.

Customers have changed. They’re looking for new ways to engage with businesses. Consumers today have a new set of expectations. They want outcomes, not ownership. Customization, not generalization. Constant improvement, not planned obsolescence.

In the old world (let’s call it the Product Economy) it was all about things. Acquiring new customers, shipping commodities, billing for one-time transactions. But in today’s new era, it’s all about relationships. More and more customers are becoming subscribers because subscription experiences built around services meet consumers’ needs better than the static offerings or a single product.

Our vision is “The World Subscribed” where one day every company will be a part of the Subscription Economy® (a phrase coined by our CEO, Tien Tzuo and author of the best selling book Subscribed).

THE TEAM

Technical Program Managers (TPMs) at Zuora play a critical role in driving execution across large-scale, cross-functional initiatives within the Product & Technology organization. As a TPM, you will partner closely with product managers, engineering teams, and cross-functional stakeholders to plan and deliver high-impact programs.

Your Experience

  • 5–8 years of relevant program or project management experience in SaaS, cloud platforms, or enterprise software.
  • Proven success delivering complex, cross-functional technical programs.
  • Working knowledge of system design concepts and modern software architectures.
  • Strong expertise in Agile delivery (Scrum, Kanban, SAFe) and program tracking metrics.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills — effective with both technical and non-technical teams.
  • Anticipate risks and manage dependencies across teams, ensuring timely resolution and minimizing delivery impact
  • Strong organizational, analytical, and problem-solving abilities.
  • Hands-on experience with program management tools (JIRA, Confluence, dashboards).
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).

About The Company

15 years ago, Zuora was born out of a vision that we could evangelize a fundamentally new way of doing business by shifting the focus of companies to deliver recurring, people-centric services instead of a one-time sale of products. This is how we coined the term, the Subscription Economy®.


Today, we see others evangelizing this term, and building entire communities around it. The Subscription Economy isn’t (and never was) just about subscription business models but, direct, recurring relationships with customers through any business model. Subscriptions were only just scratching the surface and now, the market recognizes the Subscription Economy for what it truly is-a relationship-centric economy. Companies have realized that the path to growth going forward is to establish direct, digital relationships with their customers, and to nurture and monetize these relationships through an ever growing set of digital services.


Alongside this evolution, Zuora has been there every step of the way. We started with Zuora Billing, and have expanded our award-winning multi-product portfolio to include Zuora Revenue, Zuora Payments and Zuora Central Platform. More recently, we’ve added subscription experience platform Zephr to our family, further expanding our capabilities to serve as an intelligent hub that monetizes the complete quote to cash and revenue recognition process at scale. We call this Monetization.
