Job description

Empat delivers full-cycle software development grounded in research, empathy, and technical excellence— from system architecture and engineering to UI/UX and go-to-market. We carefully analyze our clients’ business needs and assist in developing efficient, optimized, and user-friendly solutions that bring profit.

Technical Program Manager (NYC, on-site)

Project is an AI company in the Healthcare space. It is delivering an enterprise deployment of its AI platform for a major US healthcare insurance company, with a delivery deadline of mid-September. In the client’s own words, this role is “less Program Manager, more Solution Delivery Manager”— a hands‑on delivery leader, not a classic PM.

Engagement: Contractor, full-time, initial 3 months with possible extension Location: New York City, on-site — the company works office‑first (ideally 5 days per week in the office, minimum 3)

Your responsibilities will include:

• Owning the end-to-end delivery of an enterprise implementation project;
• Working day-to-day with the engineering team and driving task execution;
• Keeping delivery on track and controlling progress against the mid-September deadline;
• Ensuring visibility into progress for all stakeholders;
• Coordinating the implementation of enterprise functionality;
• Managing the delivery workflow in Linear.

What we expect from you:

• Strong experience working directly with engineering teams;
• Enterprise delivery experience and a track record of leading complex enterprise implementations;
• Strong organisational skills;
• Hands‑on experience with Linear (specifically emphasised by the client— it’s the team’s core tool);
• Readiness to work on‑site in NYC in an office‑first culture;
• Advanced English.

We offer:

• A key leadership role in a high‑visibility enterprise project with a leading Healthcare AI company;
• Full-time contractor engagement— initial 3 months with a strong possibility of extension;
• A fast, simple hiring process— just two steps: an intro call and a practical case (you’ll explain how you would organise the delivery of a specific feature).

Please note: this is a contractor position; vacation and sick leave are not covered.
