Job requirements

We use an agile methodology so being familiar with agile methods such as scrum, burn-down charts, kanban charts, iterations and sprints, backlogs and continuous integration are important. As a project manager it will be your responsibility to turn a project's requirements into a backlog, work with the team to separate the backlog into sprints or iterations, and work with the team to monitor the team's progress throughout the iterations and the project's life cycle. While working on that, you will also be working with the client to ensure that the client sees constant progress in their project, understands where the project is in the overall time-line and schedule, and negotiate customer expectations and ensure that the customer approves the deliverables. You will be working with the sales and marketing teams to assist with estimating costs and time-lines. Finally, you will be working with internal stakeholders to report the progress of your projects and communicate any needs, delays, or expectations for your projects.

  • Reviewing the requirements for the projects you are working on.
  • Review the current team backlogs
  • Meeting the team members for the projects you will manage.
  • Get introduced to the clients and internal stakeholders.
  • Be able to monitor a project's issue list and overall status of the project.

  • Manage the team's iteration backlog
  • Fully review the project's requirements and backlog
  • Communicate status updates to the client
  • Communicate issues from the client to the team and adjust schedules and backlogs as needed.

What you will be doing in 6-12 months:

  • Work with the sales team to evaluate potential projects
  • Estimate development hours for project work
  • Follow up with former projects to ensure customer success
  • Suggest process improvements

What you will be doing after 1 year:
