Senior Technical Program Manager (M&A Integration)
Freenow · Berlin, Germany
About The Role
Join Lyft as a Senior Technical Program Manager (M&A Integration) to lead the technical workstreams for the integration of Freenow, following its acquisition. This high-stakes role requires technical credibility, strong communication skills, and the ability to influence without authority. You will be responsible for Day 1 readiness, IT and workplace cutover, security and compliance posture, integration stream kickoff, cross-functional orchestration, executive communication, and future M&A integration. Enjoy benefits such as sabbatical leave, employee assistance program, mobility benefits card, flexible work options, talent development, birthday off, and remote work within the EU.
- Assurer la préparation technique pour le jour J, en définissant ce que signifie "prêt" et en suivant chaque flux de travail.
- Coordonner la transition des systèmes informatiques et des bureaux, y compris l'accès aux systèmes, la fourniture de matériel et la configuration des bureaux.
- Lancer les flux de travail d'intégration technique entre Freenow et Lyft, en établissant le rythme de fonctionnement, les dépendances et les voies d'escalade.
- Calm under pressure. M&A timelines move, regulators ask questions, and things break. You stay structured and keep others structured
- Working knowledge of enterprise IT and corporate engineering: identity providers and SSO, MDM, endpoint management, networking and VPN, SaaS provisioning, source control and CI/CD tooling, cloud account structures
- Significant TPM, engineering management, or M&A integration experience, with a clear track record of delivering on M&A separation, integration, or carve-out programmes — ideally including a Day 1 cutover under a new owner
- Comfort operating in extreme ambiguity with only high-level direction, across multiple jurisdictions, time zones, and corporate cultures
- Excellent written and verbal communication in English. You can brief a C-level audience in three slides and an engineer in a Slack thread, and adjust the register without losing precision
- A strong technical foundation — software engineering or infrastructure background. You can sit in an architecture review and push back credibly, and you understand what it takes to operate large-scale, 24x7 production systems
- Influence without authority. You get senior people to commit, deliver, and stay aligned in a matrixed environment — without needing a reporting line to do it
- Familiarity with the German labour and works council context
- Exposure to both acquirer-side and target-side integration work
- Previous experience inside a regulated business (mobility, fintech, payments) or working through a change-of-control event
