About the Role
Alarm.com is a rapidly expanding, entrepreneurial technology company. The Management Development Program (MDP) is focused on developing MDP Associates into Alarm.com’s technology leaders. Associates rotate through several areas of the business over two to three years, reporting to different departments and managers. This is a hands-on program where Associates take on real responsibility early and work directly with senior leaders on projects that matter.
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.
Requirements & Tech Stack
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.
- Experience using AI tools and the judgment to use them well on complex, open-ended work.
- Track record of delivering results under real pressure, in school, work, or other commitments.
- 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, including Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.
- Interest in consumer technology and connected devices.
- Willingness to travel as needed.
- Other duties as assigned.
Preferred Qualifications
- Internship or project experience in product, program, or project management.
- Experience in a customer-facing, operational, or support role.
- Leadership of a team, club, or organization where you were accountable for a result.
Additional Information
- Base Salary Range: $80,000—$90,000 USD.
- Sponsorship of new applicants for employment authorization is not available for this position.
- Employees work from the office 4 days a week.
- Alarm.com offers competitive pay and benefits, including subsidized medical plan options, an HSA with company contribution, a 401(k) with employer match, paid holidays, wellness time, vacation, paid maternity and bonding leave, company-paid disability and life insurance, FSAs, and well-being resources.
