  • Drive sprint execution and ensure consistent delivery quality
  • Identify risks early, manage dependencies, and remove blockers
  • Communicate timelines, decisions, and tradeoffs clearly
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with UX, QA, DevOps, and client stakeholders
  • Champion a delivery culture rooted in clarity, speed, and continuous improvement


What Makes You a Strong Fit

  • 5–10+ years leading custom software development projects
  • Experience in startup or high-growth environments
  • Deep understanding of SDLC, Agile/Scrum, and iterative delivery
  • Ability to translate complexity into clear, actionable direction
  • Skilled at balancing multiple projects and priorities
