Key Technical Project Manager

Distribusion is looking for a Key Technical Project Manager to lead our most strategic, high‑profile tech integration projects on the Supply side of our business. You'll serve as the main point of contact with clients and collaborate closely with our product, technology, operations, partnerships, and leadership teams.

What you will do:

• Lead the delivery of complex integration projects with major transportation providers, supporting them throughout the full implementation cycle—from onboarding through go‑live.
• Act as the primary point of contact for external partners, facilitating collaboration between their teams and Distribusion's Engineering, Product, and Operations functions.
• Manage the end‑to‑end technical integration, including requirements scoping, timeline planning, testing coordination, stakeholder alignment, and go‑live execution.
• Facilitate technical workshops and documentation, helping partners navigate our real‑time API products with clarity.
• Collaborate internally to remove blockers, align on priorities, and ensure delivery goals are met.
• Bring partner insights back to the team to help improve our documentation, tools, and overall integration experience.

Workplace:

Berlin & Hybrid. We collaborate with teams around the Globe and our HQ office in Berlin, where the Berlin team often meets in the office.

Who you are:

• You bring 5+ years of experience in technical project management or solution delivery, including at least 2 years in a consulting environment leading complex, high‑impact projects-ideally in sectors like transportation, healthcare, or telecom.
• You have strong business acumen and a data‑driven mindset—comfortable breaking down ambiguous problems, interpreting KPIs and technical metrics, and turning them into clear priorities.
• You're confident navigating topics like APIs, sprint cycles, architecture, and system integrations, even if you're not the one coding.
• You're a structured communicator who can translate complexity into clarity for both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• You take ownership, thrive in ambiguity, and are energised by solving cross‑functional coordination challenges.
• You're fluent in English & German, both written and spoken.
• You're open to business travel, as needed.

What you can expect:

• You will join a fast‑paced travel tech company and take on a rapidly growing industry.
• You will take on ownership and responsibility from day one and directly impact the company's success.
• We value agility! We're constantly updating our tech stack and offering the best possible tools to ensure all of our in‑house engineers, partners, and carriers benefit from cutting‑edge, efficient solutions.
• You will work with global companies. Our product attracts the biggest names in travel technology, such as Booking.com and Google Maps, and national carriers like Amtrak, Deutsche Bahn, Renfe, and SNCF.
• You will join an international team of talented and driven people with a clear mission. Expect your colleagues to inspire, support and challenge you every day!
• We offer flexible and remote working conditions, relocation opportunities and career growth in a small and developing company.
