Job description

Kunai builds full-stack technology solutions for banks, credit and payment networks, infrastructure providers, and their customers. Together, we are changing the world’s relationship with financial services. At Kunai, we help our clients modernize, capitalize on emerging trends, and evolve their business for the coming decades by remaining tech-agnostic and human-centered.

As a Technical Project Manager, your first engagement will include ownership of a workstream inside a larger, mid-stream program, picking up a Fee Management System that already has an MVP in flight and driving it through rollout and V2 definition.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own the day-to-day management of the ARP Remediation workstream within the broader program
• Coordinate across teams to keep the MVP rollout on track and moving toward production
• Drive definition and scoping for V2, working with stakeholders to nail down requirements
• Apply tactical analysis to understand the technical details of the work, not just the schedule
• Manage the day-to-day tracking of a workstream inside a larger program
• Surface risks and blockers early and work with technical leads to resolve them
• Keep stakeholders aligned on status, decisions, and tradeoffs throughout rollout and V2 planning
• Report progress clearly to program leadership and the client

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Experience managing a workstream or project within a larger, multi-team program
• Background in tactical or technical analysis a plus
• Comfort working in environments where an MVP is live and the focus is shifting to rollout and next‑phase definition
• Experience scaling a team, including planning for and onboarding new engineers
• A hands‑on background in Cyber Security or current experience leading Cyber Security related projects is a very strong plus
• Familiarity with AWS is a plus
• Strong stakeholder management skills, including the ability to translate technical detail for non-technical audiences
• Comfortable working on fixed-timeline engagements with a defined integration deadline
• A clear communicator who can coordinate across technical and business teams without losing precision

Our success over the past 20 years is rooted in our exceptional team, which thrives in a culture of collaboration, creativity, and continuous learning. We are proud to offer our employees a range of benefits, including competitive compensation, professional development opportunities, and flexible work arrangements, all designed to help them thrive. As we continue to expand, we remain committed to cultivating an environment where people feel valued, have a voice, and are given the tools to grow—both personally and professionally—while pushing the boundaries of innovation in the fintech industry.

Minimum Degree Required
