Job description

We are seeking a technically strong Senior Technical ProjectManager to drive delivery of complex, technology-heavy projects for ourretail-focused client portfolio. This role is weighted toward technicalownership and hands-on execution — the ideal candidate is someone who can diginto code, architecture, and infrastructure decisions directly, not just trackstatus. Deep working knowledge of Python, .NET, and cloud platforms(AWS/Azure/GCP) is essential, along with practical experience implementing moderndeployment strategies (CI/CD, blue-green, canary releases) and a solidunderstanding of retail industry systems such as omnichannel commerce, POS,supply chain, and customer engagement platforms.

The Senior Technical Project Manager will be hands-on inreviewing architecture and code-level decisions, troubleshooting technicalblockers, validating deployment pipelines, and ensuring solutions aretechnically sound — using project management skills as a means to keeptechnical delivery on track, rather than as the core focus of the role.

Key Responsibilities

• Ownthe technical delivery of projects end-to-end — from solution designreview through deployment — for retail client engagements.
• Gethands-on with Python and .NET codebases where needed: reviewing codequality, debugging issues, validating designs, and ensuring adherence toengineering best practices.
• Evaluateand make recommendations on cloud architecture across AWS, Azure, and/orGCP — compute, storage, networking, managed services, and costoptimization.
• Design,implement, and troubleshoot deployment strategies and pipelines — CI/CD(Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI), containerization(Docker/Kubernetes), blue-green/canary releases, andinfrastructure-as-code (Terraform/CloudFormation/ARM).
• Performtechnical risk assessments and gap analyses on architecture, integrations,and non-functional requirements (scalability, performance, security).
• Translatebusiness and functional requirements into detailed technicalspecifications and solution designs.
• Set upand maintain project-level technical tracking (sprint boards, technicalbacklogs) using Jira, Azure DevOps, or similar tools, with a focus ontechnical accuracy over administrative reporting.
• Serveas the technical point of contact for client engineering counterparts,resolving technical queries and unblocking implementation issues directly.
• Evaluateand recommend appropriate cloud service offerings (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) basedon technical fit, scalability, and cost — including proof-of-concept workwhere needed.
• EmbedDevSecOps practices into the SDLC — security scanning, compliance checks,and governance gates within CI/CD pipelines.
• Applyretail domain knowledge to solution design for e-commerce platforms, POSintegration, inventory/order management, supply chain systems, andcustomer data platforms.
• Contributetechnical estimations, architecture diagrams, and solution approaches forproposals and pre-sales efforts.
• Evaluateand pilot AI/automation tooling (agentic coding tools, LLM Ops, AIguardrails) to improve engineering efficiency and delivery quality.
• Produceand maintain technical documentation — architecture diagrams, deploymentof runbooks, integration specs, and technical decision logs.
• Coordinatelightweight project logistics (timelines, dependencies, status updates)only to the extent needed to keep technical delivery unblocked — this isnot a resourcing/staff-management role.

Stakeholder management with business process owners (not justengineering counterparts)

ROI/benefits tracking (hours saved, FTE impact) — a standard deliverable in RPA programs

Change management for process changes that break existing bots

Requirements

Required Qualifications

Experience

• 12+years of overall IT/engineering experience, with substantial hands-on timewriting, reviewing, or architecting Python and/or .NET applications.
• Strong,current working knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) — includingcompute (EC2/App Services/Compute Engine), storage, networking, serverless(Lambda/Azure Functions), and managed database services — gained throughdirect implementation, not just oversight.
• Hands-onexperience designing and troubleshooting CI/CD pipelines and deploymentstrategies: Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or GitLab CI;containerization (Docker, Kubernetes); blue-green /canaryreleases; infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, CloudFormation, ARMtemplates).

• Abilityto produce clear technical documentation (architecture diagrams, runbooks,technical specs) independently.
• Workingknowledge of security and compliance considerations relevant toretail/e-commerce (PCI-DSS, data privacy).
• Cleartechnical communication skills for engaging with engineering teams andclient technical counterparts — this role is not focused on executivestakeholder management or team leadership.
