Sr. Technical Project Manager - Agentic AI & ML Platform - Enterprise Delivery
- Location: South Brampton: 5 days on-site
- Start Date: ASAP
- Contract Term: Until end of April 2027. High change of renewal.
Our client, one of Canada's largest retailers, is seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to support the delivery of enterprise AI, Data, and ML initiatives within their Data & Engineering organization.
This is a highly visible, fast-paced role working closely with senior engineering and data science leadership. The right candidate will be equally comfortable translating complex technical concepts into executive-ready communications and rolling up their sleeves to drive day-to-day delivery across multiple concurrent workstreams.
This is not a traditional PM role. You will be embedded with technical teams working on agentic AI, data platforms, and ML initiatives, and will need the credibility and fluency to operate effectively in that environment.

- Translate complex technical programs and project updates into clear, concise executive presentations and communications for Sr. Directors and above
- Drive program delivery across AI, Data, and ML workstreams including timeline management, dependency tracking, and stakeholder coordination
- Lead cross-functional coordination across engineering, data science, product, and business teams to keep programs on track
- Facilitate technical discussions, capture decisions, and ensure clear accountability and follow-through
- Prepare and present program status updates, risks, and recommendations to senior leadership
- Identify and proactively manage risks, blockers, and escalations across active workstreams
- Support planning and roadmap activities for the Data and ML Engineering portfolio
Must Haves
- 8-10+ years of experience in Technical Program Management or related roles
- Strong technical fluency - ability to understand and communicate AI, data, and ML concepts credibly with engineering teams and executive stakeholders
- Experience supporting AI, GenAI, or ML platform programs
- Proven experience preparing and delivering executive-level presentations and communications
- Experience managing complex, multi-workstream programs in fast-paced enterprise environments
- Strong stakeholder management and cross-functional coordination skills
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Ability to operate with minimal oversight and drive clarity in ambiguous situations
Nice to Haves

- Background in retail or large enterprise environments
- Experience supporting platform build-out or 0 to 1 initiatives
- Familiarity with agile delivery methodologies
