How much do software development project manager jobs pay per year?
How does a Software Development Project Manager collaborate with cross-functional teams during a project lifecycle?
What is the difference between Software Development Project Manager vs Software Engineer?
| Aspect | Software Development Project Manager | Software Engineer |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | Bachelor's in CS or related, PMP or Agile certifications | Bachelor's or higher in CS or related field |
| Work Environment | Project teams, client meetings, planning sessions | Coding, debugging, designing software |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Tech companies, software firms, IT departments | Tech companies, startups, software development firms |
The main difference is that a Software Development Project Manager oversees project planning, coordination, and delivery, focusing on managing teams and timelines.

Job description
You will work across multiple workstreams and initiatives simultaneously, bringing structure, clarity, and a focus on outcomes to everything you touch. You are comfortable working in both project-based and iterative environments, adapting your approach to what each team and initiative needs - whether that's a defined project plan, a prioritized set of program objectives, or helping a product team drive toward measurable results. You build strong partnerships, manage complexity with confidence, and keep stakeholders aligned and moving forward.
This role is part of a growing CAG Dx BU PMO with a strong delivery track record and an expanding mission, offering real opportunity to develop and grow alongside the team.
In This Role...
You will drive Delivery Across Projects and Product Team Initiatives
- Lead and manage multiple initiatives or projects, or provide support to multiple cross-functional teams simultaneously - balancing discrete projects with ongoing support for CAG Dx product teams.
- Develop and maintain clear plans, priorities, and outcome definitions across workstreams; keep teams focused on delivering measurable business value, not just completing tasks.
- Manage scope, schedule, risks, dependencies, and change across initiatives; escalate and resolve issues proactively.
- Support CAG Dx product management teams - including software product teams - with the structure, coordination, and execution discipline needed to deliver on their priorities.
- Adapt your approach fluidly - applying formal project management discipline where it adds value, and operating in a more iterative, outcome-focused mode when needed.
You will Engage and Align Stakeholders
- Build strong partnerships across product management, business, IT and R&D delivery teams, and other cross-functional teams; serve as a trusted partner who brings clarity and drives decisions.
- Lead project and program meetings, communications, and reviews - ensuring clear ownership, follow-through, and alignment across stakeholders.
- Anticipate competing priorities and stakeholder needs; manage expectations proactively and navigate ambiguity with confidence.
You will manage Requirements, Scope, and Change
- Coordinate requirements gathering, documentation, and management across the initiative lifecycle.
- Identify, manage, and control scope changes using established change control processes; obtain approvals as required.
- Maintain clear outcome definitions and success metrics across initiatives; track progress against outcomes as well as milestones.
You will contribute to Team and Portfolio Success
- Work across the CAG Dx BU PMO portfolio with flexibility - contributing to reference lab, enterprise, and product team initiatives as capacity and priorities allow.
- Contribute to PMO continuous improvement, sharing insights and identifying opportunities to strengthen how the team delivers.
- Build capability within project teams through coaching, clear communication, and a consistent focus on accountability and outcomes.
What you will need to succeed...
- You have 5-8 years of progressive project and program management experience, with demonstrated ability to manage multiple complex, cross-functional initiatives simultaneously in a matrixed environment.
- Your Location: We are looking for someone driving distance to our Westbrook, ME HQ. We have a flexible hybrid schedule of 8 days per month onsite that we require.
- You have experience supporting or partnering with software product management teams required; demonstrated experience working within Agile delivery environments (e.g. Scrum, Kanban) required.
- You have familiarity with software development lifecycle; direct experience partnering with software engineering or product teams required.
- You have demonstrated ability to balance traditional project management discipline with a flexible, outcome-focused approach across different team environments.
- You have strong proficiency in project management and collaboration tools commonly used in software environments (e.g., JIRA, Confluence, Smartsheet, Microsoft Teams, or similar).
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and experience required.
It would be a plus if you had either of these things...
- You have experience in healthcare, life sciences, or technology product environments.
- PMP or equivalent certification
Your Skills and Competencies:
- Manages multiple priorities and workstreams effectively; connects team-level work to business outcomes and stays focused when priorities shift.
- Focused on outcomes, not just activity; brings urgency and accountability to everything and consistently delivers even under tough circumstances.
- Comfortable with ambiguity and competing demands; quickly identifies what matters most and drives clarity across complex, fast-moving environments.
- Anticipates and manages the needs of multiple stakeholders across product, business, and technology teams; builds trust and finds well-balanced paths forward
- Delivers clear, confident communications adapted to diverse audiences - from product and engineering teams to senior leadership
- Creates clarity on ownership and follow-through; holds self and others accountable for commitments and outcomes
- Inspires alignment and action across cross-functional teams through influence, trust, and strong relationships
- Adjusts approach in real time to match the shifting needs of different teams, initiatives, and delivery environments
Your Personal Attributes
- Energized by working across multiple initiatives and teams simultaneously - brings focus and momentum wherever they engage.
- Outcome-oriented - keeps teams focused on delivering real business value, not just completing tasks.
- Composed and steady under pressure; resourceful and persistent when faced with obstacles.
- Collaborative and relationship-oriented - builds trust quickly and works well across diverse teams and functions.
What you can expect from us:
• Base annual salary target: $120000 - $140000 (yes, we do have flexibility if needed)
• Opportunity for annual cash bonus
• Health / Dental / Vision Benefits Day-One
• 5% matching 401k
