Remote Project Engineer Jobs in Connecticut (NOW HIRING)

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Lead the end-to-end delivery of complex technical initiatives across engineering domains

• Drive alignment on business outcomes, scope, sequencing, risks, dependencies, ownership, and success measures across multiple teams

• Translate ambiguous goals into clear execution plans, operating rhythms, decision points, and accountability structures that enable teams to move faster

• Operate as a strategic delivery leader by asking the next question, surfacing gaps, and pushing for the rigor needed to execute well

• Challenge weak assumptions, plans, timelines, and inputs when needed to improve decision quality and reduce delivery risk

• Identifyrisks early, assess impact, drive mitigation planning, and escalate with recommendations rather than simply reporting problems

• Partner closely with engineering leaders and teams to understand technical context, architecture implications, dependencies, and delivery constraints well enough to guide execution credibly

• Provide concise, leadership-ready updates focused on progress, risks, changes, decisions needed, and recommended actions

• Facilitate discussions that drive teams to closure on priorities, tradeoffs, commitments, and next steps

• Improve execution quality byidentifyingpatterns, friction points, and systemic gaps across teams and helping implement better ways of working

• Explore, adopt, and help scale AI-enabled tools and practices that improve project management, including planning support, technical synthesis, status reporting, dependency analysis, risk detection, and decision support

• Lead or support initiatives tied to AI-enabled product capabilities, AI experimentation, and AI-related engineering investments as priorities evolve

• Partner effectively with engineering and product leaders as the organization increasingly incorporates AI into its product strategy, development approach, and internal tooling

• Travel as needed for team and company meetings

Preferred

• Experience working in Azure, AWS, or GCP-based environments

• Experience working with distributed engineering teams across regions, including the ability to drive alignment, accountability, and execution across time zones and differing team norms

• Experience supporting engineering efficiency, platform automation, cost optimization, or operational improvement initiatives in technical environments

• Experience building or improving TPM operating models, governance, reporting, or portfolio-level execution practices

• Experience using AI tools to support planning, communication, meeting synthesis, reporting, risk identification, dependency analysis, or workflow automation

• Exposure to AI or machine learning initiatives through direct project support or self-driven learning and experimentation

• Experiencemanagingcross-team planning, andoperatingeffectively even when data quality is imperfect
