Full Job Description
We’re not just building better tech. We’re rewriting how data moves and what the world can do with it. With Confluent, data doesn’t sit still. Our platform puts information in motion, streaming in near real-time so companies can react faster, build smarter, and deliver experiences as dynamic as the world around them.
It takes a certain kind of person to join this team. Those who ask hard questions, give honest feedback, and show up for each other. No egos, no solo acts. Just smart, curious humans pushing toward something bigger, together.
One Confluent. One Team. One Data Streaming Platform.
About the Role:
We are hiring an Executive Engagement Program Manager to lead executive briefing programs that deepen relationships with strategic customers and accelerate our largest opportunities.
You will own an executive briefing program area end to end (for example, the Mountain View EBC, an “EBC-on-the-road” series, or a defined 1:1 / 1:few / 1:many motion). You’ll partner closely with Sales, Field Marketing, Customer Success, Product & Engineering, Strategic Experts and Executives to plan and run briefings that align to account strategy and Confluent’s Data Streaming Platform (DSP) vision.
You’ll report to a Staff Program Manager of Executive Engagements and collaborate with Associate/Coordinator roles and peer Program Managers.
What You Will Do:
Own and deliver briefing programs
Serve as end-to-end owner for a defined executive engagement domain (e.g., Mountain View EBC, regional roadshows, or a specific executive motion).
Manage the full lifecycle: intake, scoping, planning, execution, and post-briefing follow-up.
Ensure each briefing or series has clear objectives tied to pipeline, expansion, adoption, or strategic alignment.
Run projects with strong program management
Build and manage project plans, timelines, milestones, and dependencies.
Provide concise status reporting, track issues and risks, and drive decisions to keep work on track.
Facilitate prep calls and internal alignment meetings; document outcomes and action items.
Drive cross-functional alignment and accountability
Partner with Sales, Customer Success, Product, Field & Partner Marketing, and Executive Admins to align on goals, roles, and success metrics.
What You Will Bring:
2-3 years in program or project management, inside sales, customer success management, executive event coordination, or similar roles in B2B enterprise software or high-growth SaaS.
Proven track record of end-to-end ownership of programs or projects with cross-functional stakeholders and clear business impact.
Experience in executive briefing centers
Solid project management skills: planning, timeline estimation, status reporting, issue/risk tracking, and process documentation.
Ability to juggle and prioritize multiple concurrent projects in a dynamic environment with minimal supervision.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills, including comfort working with senior sales leaders and executives..
What Gives You an Edge
Direct experience with Executive Briefing Centers, CxO roundtables, or global executive roadshows.
Background in Sales programs, ABM, or Strategic Accounts support.
Familiarity with Confluent, Apache Kafka, data streaming, or AI/GenAI use cases.
Experience defining program metrics and dashboards for executive engagement.
