Responsibilities
- Strategic Project Governance: Lead the planning and execution of multiple product workstreams, ensuring alignment with the overall product roadmap and departmental strategic goals.
- Agile Transformation: Champion and refine Agile/Scrum methodologies within the department, facilitating sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives to optimize team velocity.
- Stakeholder Management: Act as the primary point of contact for senior leadership and business units, providing transparent reporting on project health, risks, and milestones.
- Resource & Capacity Planning: Manage cross-functional team allocations (Design, Dev, QA) to prevent bottlenecks and ensure optimal utilization of technical talent.
- Risk Mitigation: Proactively identify technical and operational risks; develop and execute contingency plans to keep delivery on track.
- Product Lifecycle Documentation: Maintain rigorous project documentation, including functional requirement summaries, project charters, and post-launch impact reports.
- Change Management: Manage the intake process for new feature requests and scope changes, assessing their impact on timelines and resource budgets.
- Process Optimization: Continuously evaluate product development workflows to reduce technical debt and improve the time-to-market for new features.
Job Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Business Administration, Project Management, Computer Science, or a related field.
- Certification: PMP, PRINCE2, or Agile certifications (PMI-ACP) are highly preferred.
- 8+ years of experience in project management, specifically within a software or product development environment.
- Technical Literacy: Strong understanding of the Full Stack development lifecycle (Java, Spring Boot, Angular) and API-led architectures to effectively communicate with engineering teams.
- Tooling Expertise: Mastery of project management software such as Jira, Confluence, Microsoft Project, or Azure DevOps.
- Product Familiarity: Experience working alongside Product Managers to translate user stories into executable technical tasks.
- Business Delivery: Proven track record of managing large-scale digital transformation projects or platform launches.
- Leadership: Demonstrated ability to influence and lead cross-functional teams without direct hierarchical authority.
- Conflict Resolution: Expert at navigating competing priorities between business desires and technical constraints.
