Job description

Keep multi-team projects honest — scope, timeline, budget, and the client relationship. You will be the US-hours anchor for engagements delivered by our India teams, and clients will know your name. You keep calm when things go sideways and turn ambiguity into a plan.

Delivery Management
  • Run 2–4 concurrent client engagements from kickoff to launch.
  • Own sprint planning, standups, and demos across US and India time zones.
  • Keep scope, timeline, and budget aligned and visible at all times.
Client & Stakeholder Management
  • Be the primary point of contact for clients through the engagement.
  • Report status clients actually read — clear, honest, and short.
  • Manage expectations and scope changes transparently with clients and delivery leads.
Risk & Process
  • Surface risks early and drive them to resolution before they become escalations.
  • Facilitate agile ceremonies without cargo-culting them.
  • Continuously improve our delivery playbook from what each project teaches.
Requirements
  • 4+ years managing software projects, ideally in an agency or services context.
  • Experience coordinating distributed teams across US and India time zones.
  • Fluency in agile ceremonies without cargo-culting them.
  • Enough technical depth to follow architecture and API discussions.
  • Calm, structured communication when things go sideways.
Nice to Have
  • PMP, CSM, or SAFe certification.
  • Experience with AI or data projects and their peculiar uncertainties.
  • Client-side experience — you know what it feels like to be the buyer.
