About The Role The Project Manager keeps engineering and cross-functional teams aligned, driving software projects from scoping through launch. This is a hands-on execution role in a fast-moving product environment, coordinating across engineering, design, and go-to-market teams. The role matters because velocity depends on it: clear plans, unblocked teams, and early risk detection. You will own the delivery cadence for multiple concurrent initiatives, translating ambiguity into schedules and tradeoffs leadership can act on.
