This role requires strong ownership, accountability, and the ability to manage developers, designers, testers, and stakeholders to ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

Key Responsibilities

  • Verify deliverables meet requirements before closing tasks or milestones.
  • Conduct regular sprint reviews, stand-ups, and project alignment meetings with stakeholders.
  • Work closely with developers, UI/UX teams, QA testers, and external vendors.
  • Use Jira (or similar tools) efficiently for backlog management, sprint execution, and reporting.
  • Identify project risks early and proactively resolve bottlenecks to avoid delays.
  • Maintain precise accuracy, organization, and documentation standards across all work.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in IT, Computer Science, Business, or a related field (preferred).
  • 2–3 years of experience in software project management or technical coordination.
  • Strong proficiency in Jira (boards, workflows, reporting, sprint planning).
  • Solid understanding of software development processes (Agile/Scrum).
  • Excellent communication skills — written and verbal.
  • Strong organizational and multi-tasking skills.
  • Ability to independently follow up and ensure closure of tasks and communication loops.
  • Detail-oriented with analytical and problem-solving abilities.
  • Comfortable working in fast-paced environments with multiple parallel priorities.
