We're a growing software development agency that builds custom web applications for clients across multiple industries. Due to growth, we need a Technical Project Manager who can own client relationships from discovery through delivery.
What You'll Actually Do:
- Run discovery calls to uncover what clients really need (not just what they ask for)
- Transform business problems into detailed technical requirements developers love
- Plan and manage sprints for several concurrent client projects
- Present solutions and demos that make clients say "that's exactly what we wanted"
- Work directly with our remote development team to ensure quality delivery
- Become the trusted advisor clients text when they have "quick questions"
Your Typical Week:
- Monday: Discovery call with new client, write up requirements
- Tuesday: Sprint planning with devs, client check-in calls
- Wednesday: Review delivered features, update project timelines
- Thursday: Stakeholder presentation, scope next phase
- Friday: QA testing, documentation, planning next week
You're Perfect If You Have:
- 3+ years managing software projects from discovery to delivery
- Experience at a software agency or consultancy (not just in-house)
- Proven ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously without dropping balls
- Strong technical knowledge (can explain APIs, databases, integrations)
- Experience managing remote/offshore developers
- Excellence in client communication and expectation management
Required Skills:
- Requirements gathering and user story creation
- Sprint planning and backlog management
- Basic understanding of web technologies (React, databases, APIs)
- Proficiency with Jira, Slack, and mockup tools
- Ability to say "no" to scope creep diplomatically
- Experience with fixed-bid and retainer project models
Nice to Have:
- Figma or similar design tool experience
- Basic SQL knowledge
- Scrum/Agile certification
- Agency experience with multiple industries
Red Flags (Please Don't Apply If):
- You've only worked on internal projects at large companies
- You think requirements gathering means "asking what they want"
- You've never managed developers directly
- You can't handle context switching between projects

- (60 seconds) Pretend I'm a client who just said: "Our sales team is losing deals because our CRM doesn't talk to our inventory system." What are your first three questions for me, and why?
- (30 seconds) What's the hardest part about managing multiple client projects at once, and how do you handle it?
