We are looking for an organized, articulate, and proactive Technical Project Manager to lead our software development team and serve as the primary bridge between our clients and engineering. You will take ownership of the full project lifecycle, starting by analyzing client briefs, distilling them into structured functional requirements and user stories, keeping development sprints on track using Jira, and maintaining clear project documentation via Google Docs and Sheets.
Key Responsibilities
Requirement Engineering: Take raw client briefs, discovery notes, or proposals, and translate them into comprehensive functional requirements, wireframe notes, and detailed user stories.
Client Relationship Management: Act as the main point of contact for clients, leading status meetings, managing scope discussions, and presenting deliverables.
Agile & Sprint Management (Jira): Own the Jira workspace. Structure epics, plan sprints, write clear acceptance criteria, groom the backlog, track velocity, and remove blockers for the development team.
Documentation & Tracking: Maintain live project trackers, timelines, and scope documents using Google Sheets, and write structured PRDs, specs, and meeting notes using Google Docs.
Cross-Functional Coordination: Collaborate daily with full-stack developers and designers to ensure features are built, tested, and shipped according to specifications.
Quality & Delivery Oversight: Review completed features against the original requirements and manage QA sign-offs before client demos or production deployments.
Key Requirements & Qualifications
Experience: Minimum 2 years of experience managing software development projects, technical products, or digital agency workflows.
Tool Mastery: Advanced proficiency in Jira for agile tracking, combined with strong organizational habits using Google Workspace (Google Docs, Google Sheets) for documentation and planning.
Analytical & Writing Skills: Proven ability to read raw project briefs or client notes and structure them into clear, unambiguous technical requirements that developers can execute immediately.
Technical Literacy: Comfortable discussing web technologies, databases, APIs, and software architecture with engineers to estimate effort accurately and identify risks early.
Client-Facing Acumen: Exceptional communication, negotiation, and presentation skills. Able to explain technical constraints simply to clients and manage expectations professionally.
