Job description
Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.
We're looking for our first Technical Program Manager to work with our largest enterprise customers and help them adopt Cursor. This is a highly customer-facing role. You'll partner closely with customer engineering teams and internal stakeholders to drive complex deployments across engineering, security, IT, and executive stakeholders. You'll be responsible for ensuring customers achieve measurable outcomes while helping Cursor scale its enterprise motion.
As our first TPM, you'll also help define how we work. You'll build the playbooks, processes, and operating rhythms that allow us to support increasingly large and complex customer deployments.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Own the success of our most strategic customer deployments, from initial planning through organization-wide rollout.
- Act as the quarterback across customer stakeholders and Cursor teams, driving alignment, execution, and decision-making.
- Turn ambiguity into clear plans, identify risks before they become problems, and keep complex programs moving forward.
- Build trusted relationships with engineering leaders, executives, and technical teams at some of the world's most sophisticated companies.
- Create the playbooks, processes, and operating model for how Cursor scales enterprise deployments.
- Bring customer feedback directly into Product and Engineering, helping shape the future of Cursor.
YOU MIGHT BE A FIT IF
- Experience leading large, cross-functional technical projects with significant stakeholder complexity.
- Strong customer-facing skills and a track record of building trust with senior technical and business leaders.
- Ability to understand technical systems and communicate effectively with engineers.
- Exceptional organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills.
- Comfortable operating in ambiguity and taking ownership without waiting for direction.
- Bias toward action and a willingness to dive in wherever needed to help customers succeed.
- Experience with enterprise software deployments, technical consulting, solutions architecture, or program management.
- Background working with developer tools, infrastructure, AI products, or technical platforms.
- Experience partnering with large engineering organizations and executive stakeholders.
- Previous experience at a high-growth startup.
