This role requires someone who can run initiatives and drive outcomes, rather than primarily track project status or maintain project documentation.

  • Define and track project delivery metrics and KPIs.
  • Develop dashboards and reports to provide visibility into project health and progress.
  • Monitor milestones, dependencies, risks, and delivery performance.
  • Provide regular status updates and executive-level reporting.
  • Identify trends and potential delivery risks early and recommend corrective actions.
Process Improvement
  • Identify opportunities to improve project delivery processes and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Establish and improve project governance and operating processes.
  • Drive adoption of standardized Jira/Confluence practices.
  • Improve visibility, accountability, and data quality across project teams.
Required Qualifications
  • 5+ years of Project Management experience in a technology/IT environment.
  • Proven experience owning and driving cross-functional initiatives end-to-end.
  • Experience working across Development, Product, and Operations teams.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Jira and Confluence.

  • Experience defining and tracking delivery metrics/KPIs.
  • Strong understanding of Agile/Scrum methodologies.
  • Excellent communication, organization, and stakeholder-management skills.
  • Ability to independently drive initiatives and hold multiple teams accountable for deliverables.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in telecom, technology, SaaS, or other complex enterprise environments.
  • Advanced Jira experience including JQL, workflows, dashboards, filters, and reporting.
  • Experience with Confluence governance and documentation standards.
  • Experience with Jira data quality/hygiene and backlog management.
  • PMP, CSM, SAFe, or similar project/program management certification.
  • Experience working with distributed/onshore-offshore technology teams.
Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Personally owned technology initiatives rather than simply coordinating meetings.
  • Managed dependencies across Engineering/Development, Product, and Operations.
  • Driven projects from initiation through delivery.
  • Used Jira and Confluence as active project-management tools.
  • Managed risks, issues, dependencies, milestones, and delivery metrics.
  • Communicated directly with technical and business stakeholders.
  • Improved project processes, governance, and data quality.
