About this role

We are looking for a hands-on, execution-driven Technical Project Manager to join the Project Management Office, with strong experience in mobile app development. This is not a traditional PMO role. You will take full ownership of the project and move fast to ship a great consumer mobile product.

You will own the backlog, coordinate daily with the client and development team, run Agile/Scrum ceremonies, and ensure consistent delivery. Ideally you have shipped consumer-facing mobile apps in food, delivery, loyalty or similar domains and thrive in fast-paced autonomous environments.

You bring deep practical knowledge of how mobile apps are built, a product mindset, and the energy to lead execution from day one with high autonomy and full ownership of outcomes. Work side by side with the technical team and client to drive results.

Balance competing priorities from multiple stakeholders while making data-driven decisions on feature prioritization. Facilitate backlog refinement sessions and collaborate with teams to ensure stories are well-understood and properly estimated in a collaborative environment.

Requirements

Strong experience in mobile app development and shipping consumer-facing mobile apps.
Deep practical knowledge of how mobile apps are built with a product mindset.
Experience running Agile/Scrum ceremonies and managing product backlogs.
Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business language.
Proven track record operating proactively in fast-paced, autonomous environments.

Responsibilities

Lead proposal preparation and budgeting, ensuring accurate financial forecasts and resource allocation.
Oversee end-to-end project execution, managing timelines, budgets, and scope to ensure successful delivery.
Develop and maintain detailed project plans, schedules, milestones, and status reports.
Identify, assess, and mitigate project risks while realigning schedules and expectations as needed.
Act as the main client-facing contact, building and maintaining strong client relationships.
Create, prioritize, and manage day-to-day tickets and tasks in the product backlog.
Define clear user stories, acceptance criteria, and deliverables for development teams.
Facilitate Agile ceremonies including daily stand-ups, sprint planning, retrospectives, and demos.
