The Technical Project Manager will ensure all technical deliverables, dependencies, and milestones are proactively managed, documented, and communicated.

• Facilitate technical meetings, drive follow-ups, and ensure transparent communication across teams.
• Validate technical feasibility of requirements, timelines, and resource estimates.
• Collaborate with architects and SMEs to ensure compliance with technical standards and best practices.
• Escalate technical blockers promptly and assist in resolution.
• Coordinate with vendors on technical deliverables and SLA oversight when needed.

Requirements

• 3–7+ years of experience in technical project management or coordination roles.
• Hands-on understanding of infrastructure domains (servers, networking, storage, cloud platforms, OS-level concepts).
• Experience working with software application teams (development lifecycle, APIs, integrations, DevOps pipelines).
• Strong understanding of SDLC, Agile/Scrum, and ITIL processes.
• Ability to interpret technical documentation, architecture diagrams, and workflows.
• Excellent communication skills for translating technical details to non-technical stakeholders.
• Proficiency with project tracking tools (Jira, Azure DevOps, ServiceNow, MS Project, or similar).
• Experience managing multiple concurrent workstreams or subprojects.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills.
• Ability to work with distributed teams across time zones.

Preferred Certifications

• PMP
• Certified Scrum Master
