You will apply the software development lifecycle (SDLC) to boost sprint velocity and code quality, while simultaneously overseeing the delivery of applications that embed these models directly into our enterprise products.
The perfect candidate has a solid technical foundation (preferably a background in software engineering or systems architecture) and holds the strategic mindset needed to navigate complex stakeholder landscapes, oversee multi-million dollar budgets, and advocate for modern Agile methodologies.
Responsibilities
- Orchestrate end-to-end software delivery for complex, enterprise-level Java/.NET applications using Agile (Scrum or Kanban) methodologies
- Adapt traditional Agile metrics (team velocity, sprint burn-down, cycle time) to analyze and optimize productivity gains achieved through GenAI tools
- Coordinate sprint planning, daily stand-ups, backlog grooming, and retrospectives, ensuring development workflows seamlessly integrate AI code generation, automated unit testing, and code review
- Manage project scopes, timelines, resource allocation, and multi-million dollar budgets
- Act as a highly technical liaison between developers, architects, product owners, and business leaders
- Guide the team through complex project milestones involving Java/Spring Boot and/or .NET Core/C# ecosystems, microservices architectures, RESTful APIs, and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
- Facilitate discussions around technical debt, code quality, automated testing (unit/integration/E2E), and CI/CD pipeline bottlenecks
- Oversee dependencies and risks associated with hybrid architectures (e.g., migrating legacy .NET Framework or Java EE monolithic systems to modern, containerized cloud environments)
- Serve as the primary point of contact for senior leadership and business stakeholders, providing transparent reporting on project health, roadmap progress, and technical risks
- Identify, track, and proactively mitigate risks, technical dependencies, and blockers before they impact delivery timelines
- Collaborate with Product Management to align the technical roadmap with business priorities and product backlogs
Requirements
- 10-14 years of professional experience in IT project management
- Expertise in Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and scaled agile frameworks (SAFe)
- Advanced proficiency in project management and collaboration tools, specifically Jira, Confluence, and MS Project
- Familiarity with Azure DevOps (ADO)
- Capability to perform capacity planning, estimating, and resource allocation in a fast-paced environment
- Understanding of Java/Spring Boot and/or .NET Core/C# ecosystems, microservices architectures, and RESTful APIs
- Knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and CI/CD pipelines
- Background in integrating AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Co-Pilot) into enterprise applications
- Showcase of outstanding communication, presentation, and facilitation skills, with an ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business value
- Skills in strong negotiation and conflict resolution
- Capability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-change environment
Nice to have
- Qualifications in project management: PMP (Project Management Professional) or PRINCE2 Practitioner
- Qualifications in Agile: Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) or PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)
- Qualifications as a Certified SAFe® Agilist or Certified SAFe® Product Owner
