Program Manager

About this role

Bevi is on a mission to transform how beverages are delivered and consumed. Our connected beverage platform eliminates the need for single-use bottles and cans, making it easy, fun, and sustainable to stay hydrated. As the category leader in IoT-enabled beverage technology, we're building a future where Bevi machines are everywhere people live, work, and connect. We've raised over $160M in venture capital, serve thousands of customers across the US, Canada, UK and Ireland, and we've been rapidly growing year over year, saving over 1 billion bottles from waste. In addition to driving hypergrowth with our current product line, Bevi is heavily investing in new product development.

We are seeking a driven and organized Program Manager to join our Central Program Management Office (CPMO). This role owns moderately complex, cross-functional programs spanning New Product Development, Beverage Innovation, and Go-to-Market Launch execution. Operating with meaningful autonomy, the Program Manager leads end-to-end delivery across teams including Hardware, Software, Beverage, Manufacturing, and GTM—ensuring programs stay on track, risks are surfaced early, and stakeholders remain aligned throughout. The ideal candidate is execution-focused, highly organized, and thrives in a fast-paced environment where accountability and clarity drive results.

The Program Manager will drive cross-functional alignment and work autonomously on independent initiatives, while beginning to leverage data and structured recommendations to influence key decisions.

Your Day to Day

• Own independent workstreams tied to the end-to-end execution of NPD, Beverage Innovation, and GTM Launch programs—from kick-off through successful delivery.

• Develop and maintain detailed program plans, schedules, and milestone trackers that integrate dependencies across Hardware, Software, Beverage, and Manufacturing workstreams.

• Drive accountability across cross-functional teams; ensure tasks, timelines, and deliverables are progressing as expected.

• Proactively identify and mitigate program risks and blockers, escalating to leadership with clear context and recommended paths forward.

• Balance short-term execution needs with overall program health and quality outcomes.

• Partner with Engineering, Product, Beverage, Manufacturing, Quality, and GTM teams to align on goals, timelines, and priorities.

• Communicate program status, risks, and dependencies clearly and consistently to diverse stakeholder audiences.

• Begin influencing decisions through data, context, and structured recommendations.

Requirements

Required

• 2–7 years of experience in program or project management, with a track record of successfully delivering cross-functional programs on time and on scope.

• Demonstrated execution discipline: strong organizational skills, reliable follow-through, and comfort driving accountability without direct authority.

• Experience managing programs that span multiple teams or functions, including planning, risk management, and stakeholder alignment.

• Proficiency in project management tools (e.g., Jira, Smartsheet, Microsoft Project, or equivalent).

• Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to convey program status clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

• Ability to break down ambiguous problems independently and apply structured thinking to drive outcomes.

• Hybrid role based in Charlestown (Boston), requiring 2–3 days per week on-site in our office

Preferred

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field (relevant experience may substitute).

• PMP Certification.

• Experience in a startup or high-growth environment.
