Staff Technical Program Manager, Mergers & Acquisition

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.

Rooted in Lyft's mission to serve and connect is a belief that growth through acquisition must never come at the cost of the people and teams. When Lyft acquires a company, we make a promise that those employees will have the tools, systems, and support they need easily. Keeping that promise, is this role.

As the M&A TPM, Enterprise Systems, you will be the person who makes deals real. While the ink is still drying on the term sheet, you are already mapping the path from two separate organizations to become one: unified identities, consolidated financial systems, integrated HR and IT infrastructure, and a seamless operational experience for every employee on both sides of the transaction. This is not coordination work. It is ownership of the plan, the timeline, the risks, and ultimately the outcome.

Reporting to the Head of Central TPM, you will lead cross-functional integration programs across Finance, People, IT, Legal, Marketing, Sales and Operations, working at the intersection of strategy and execution. You will support due diligence before deals close, build the integration playbook, and drive every workstream from kickoff through stabilization. At Lyft, that means operating across a modern enterprise stack including Workday, Okta, Google Workspace, Oracle Fusion, and Salesforce and knowing how to bring an acquired company into that environment with speed and precision.

If you are someone who thrives in ambiguity, earns trust quickly across functions and cultures, and takes deep ownership of outcomes that matter to real people's working lives, then this role was built for you.

Responsibilities:

• Acquisition Due Diligence: Lead the back office due diligence assessment for future acquisitions.
• Integration Planning: Develop and execute comprehensive integration roadmaps, strategies, and playbooks for business functions.
• Cross-functional Leadership: Coordinate HR, Finance, IT, Legal, Marketing, Sales and Operations teams to ensure consistent, timely transition and milestone execution.
• Risk & Issue Management: Identify dependencies, mitigate risks, and resolve issues related to system, process, or team integration.
• Synergy Realization: Track financial and operational metrics against targets to ensure value capture and measure ROI.
• Stakeholder Communication: Facilitate governance meetings, provide regular updates to executive leadership, and serve as the main point of contact for the acquired company.
• System and Process Integration: Oversee the migration of data, legal entities, and operational processes (e.g., payroll, IT infrastructure).
• Technical Compliance: Ensure compliance with corporate standards, including SOX controls, identity access management, and securit
