• Act as a trusted advisor to customers and senior stakeholders
• Mentor mid-level project managers and support team development
• Coordinate efforts across engineering, QA, product, and support teams
• Drive process improvement initiatives across the delivery lifecycle
• Ensure compliance with internal processes and industry requirements
• Oversee testing, training, implementation, and post-deployment activities
• Define, estimate, and assess new projects and proposals

• 7+ years of experience in project management, with a focus on software delivery
• Proven ability to manage large-scale or mission-critical software initiatives
• An aptitude for process improvement and change management
• Proficiency with tools like Jira, Microsoft Planner, Azure DevOps, or similar
• Experience engaging with senior internal and external stakeholders
• Strong organizational and leadership skills
• Demonstrated ability to mentor and coach project teams
• Background in regulated industries (e.g., defense, aerospace) is a strong asset
• PMP, Agile, or similar certifications are preferred

• Collaborate with a high-performing, global team
• Influence the evolution of our project delivery practices
• Advance your career in a forward-thinking environment
  
  

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is passionate about creating great software, cares about client engagements, and wants to make an impact both within the software development teams, and across the organization.
