About the Role
Alarm.com is a rapidly expanding, entrepreneurial technology company. The Management Development Program (MDP) is focused on developing MDPs into Alarm.com’s technology leaders.
MDP Associates rotate through several areas of the business over two to three years, reporting to different departments and managers. The program emphasizes breadth and hands-on experience, with Associates taking on real responsibility early and working directly with senior leaders on projects.
Key Responsibilities
- Rotate through multiple areas of the business as a working member of each team, not an observer
- Own projects end to end and answer to a real manager for real outcomes
- Support senior leaders on strategic work, and do the detailed, operational work those projects depend on
- Learn a new function and a new set of stakeholders at each rotation
- Ask for more responsibility before it is offered, and handle it when you get it
- Leave every rotation with the team better off than when you arrived
- Willingness to travel as needed
- Other duties as assigned

- Strong analytical, quantitative, and critical-thinking skills
- Clear and professional communication, with the judgment to pitch a message to the person receiving it
- Drive to learn quickly in unfamiliar territory with limited instruction, and the resourcefulness to find the answer rather than wait for it
- Ability to carry several projects at once in a fast-paced environment and stay accountable for all of them
- Comfort with ambiguity, shifting priorities, and changing managers
- Strong computer skills
- Interest in consumer technology and connected devices
