About the Company
Our client is a financial technology services provider dedicated to expanding global access to digital assets by building innovative solutions in the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Their products provide exchanges, liquidity solutions, and enterprise-grade integrations for clients worldwide. Specialized in building trading solutions, we are looking for a proactive, structured Middle Project Manager to join our engineering and delivery team.

In this role, you will coordinate across cross-functional engineering teams, facilitating end-to-end delivery of complex technical initiatives in a fast-paced, rapidly evolving environment.

What You'll Do
You will drive delivery discipline, alignment, and execution across engineering, product, and client-facing streams:
End-to-End Delivery: Manage the full delivery lifecycle for software features, infrastructure upgrades, and system integrations from initial planning to release.
Sprint & Agile Facilitation: Organize and lead Scrum/Kanban rituals—sprint planning, daily stand-ups, backlog grooming, and retrospectives.
Cross-Team Alignment: Coordinate dependencies and maintain close communication between backend, frontend, DevOps, QA, and product stakeholders.
Scope & Risk Management: Track project milestones, identify delivery risks early, resolve blockers, and communicate project status transparently to leadership.
Requirements & Task Breakdown: Work with engineering leads and product owners to translate broad technical tasks and functional requests into clear user stories, acceptance criteria, and actionable work items.
Process Optimization: Continuously refine team workflows and documentation to enhance development velocity and visibility.

Your AI & Automation Advantage
We believe AI is a powerful co-pilot for modern project management and development. We are looking for someone eager to use AI tools (such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and automated workflows) to supercharge daily productivity, streamline documentation, automate status tracking, and eliminate administrative friction.

Who You Are

A Clear Communicator: Able to articulate complex technical dependencies, timelines, and risks clearly to both engineers and business stakeholders.
A Problem-Solver: Self-motivated, resilient, and focused on unblocking bottlenecks quickly and pragmatically.
A Tech-Savvy Organizer: Possess a sound understanding of modern software development life cycles (SDLC) and feel comfortable speaking the same language as developers and DevOps engineers.
A Team Player: Foster high engagement, transparency, and a positive, collaborative engineering culture across distributed teams.
