We are hiring a Senior Project Manager to own delivery execution across our client’s Canadian engagements. You will sit between their customers and their Brazil based engineering team, and you will make sure every engagement reaches production on time, within scope, and within budget.

This is a high ownership role in a small company.

Manage multiple projects from kickoff to handoff with minimal supervision

Build project plans covering scope, milestones, resources, and budget, aligned to SOW deliverables

Coordinate delivery across time zones between customers and their engineering team in Brazil and Canada

Own project governance, including status reporting, sprint reviews, and risk and issue management. Know the difference between a risk and an issue, and when to escalation

Facilitate backlog creation with clear definitions, acceptance criteria, and estimates, and manage work in Jira

Track milestones and documentation for AWS funded engagements

Build customer trust through reliable delivery and consistent communication, including the difficult conversations

Deliver against the customer’s business outcome, not just the letter of the SOW, and bring follow on opportunities to the commercial team
