Job Description
A leading, rapidly modernizing third-party logistics firm in Southern California is seeking a highly experienced Senior IT Program Manager to drive program, project, and systems delivery across their enterprise applications and serve as the trusted customer-facing point of contact for onboarding and implementation. This is a full-time, permanent position based at the company’s City of Industry headquarters (onsite and hybrid; not remote) and reporting directly to the executive team.
In this visible, autonomous role, you will coordinate intake, prioritization, and delivery of complex projects across packaged software—spanning WMS, ERP, EDI, billing, IT service management, and a data platform—working with both internal teams and external vendors. You’ll directly manage the end-to-end customer onboarding process for enterprise applications, transforming ad-hoc implementations into scalable, repeatable processes. This position is perfect for a program leader who thrives on owning outcomes, protecting technical talent, and shaping standardized onboarding in a fast-paced, delivery-driven environment.

-

Adept at gathering requirements, sequencing dependencies, writing specs, and translating between business and technology teams (no coding required)
-
Proven ability to handle intake/triage, allocate resources, and prioritize a portfolio—deciding what gets worked on next and holding the line on priorities
-
Comfortable as the top program manager—reporting directly to executives, autonomously driving initiatives to completion
-
Working, practical fluency with AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, or similar): you use them in your daily workflow and are diligent in verifying outputs
-
Based in Southern California, able to be onsite/hybrid at the City of Industry headquarters
Desired Skills & Experience
-
Familiarity with Blue Yonder (WMS) or hands-on ERP (NetSuite or similar) implementations
