Job description

What You'll Do

• Track delivery status: keep an accurate, up-to-date picture of scope, progress, risks, and dependencies across one or more teams

• Run the operating rhythm: support planning, refinement, standups, and reviews so they produce real decisions, not just status updates

• Coordinate across teams: identify and track cross-team dependencies and follow up until they're resolved

• Report clearly: produce concise, honest status updates for team leads and stakeholders, tailored to their level of detail

• Learn the metrics: help gather and maintain delivery metrics such as lead time, cycle time, throughput, and work in progress

• Build technical fluency: develop enough understanding of the systems and architecture involved to ask good questions and spot risk early

• Maintain tooling hygiene: keep Jira and Confluence structures (epics, releases, dependencies) accurate and usable for reporting

What We're Looking For

• 3-5 years of experience in program/project coordination, delivery, or a related technical role

• Exposure to software engineering concepts, the delivery lifecycle, or a technical background you're building on

• Strong organizational skills and comfort managing multiple threads at once

• Clear written and verbal communication

• Working familiarity with Jira, Confluence, or similar tools

• A proactive, detail-oriented mindset with a genuine interest in how software gets built and delivered

What This Role Is Not

• Not a role focused only on scheduling meetings and chasing task status

• Not a decision-maker on product scope or priority

Why Join
