If you thrive in environments where ambition meets purpose, you'll feel right at home.
The Role
As a Project Manager at Board Intelligence, you’ll use your expertise to steer the team and drive complex projects from start to finish. You’ll work with engineers, leaders and other stakeholders to scope and refine objectives, manage project schedules, identify risks and enable clear communication. You're equally comfortable discussing the technical tradeoffs in product development with engineers as you are to explaining your team's analyses and recommendations to executives.
This role is to work with both of our Foundations Engineering team - who focus will be on common application capabilities and the dev experience - and our Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team - who focus on infrastructure platform capabilities and overall site reliability. The goals of these two teams are closely aligned.
Main Responsibilities
- Provide visibility for all stakeholders on priorities, progress, dependencies and blockers and work through the implications with your team(s) and the wider Engineering leadership team
- Take responsibility for delivery of the team(s)' work, identifying opportunities or issues in active and planned projects and working through the implications with the wider Engineering leadership team.
- Help prioritise key milestones or projects needed to deliver your team's objectives and ensure all stakeholders are aligned around these.
- Push continuous improvement with a focus on enhancing the delivery and flow of value.
- Ensures accurate and well thought technical documents are produced as part of a project by either reviewing engineers writing or helping to write up where necessary.
Requirements
Required Skills and Experience
- Excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non‐technical individuals and a wide range of stakeholders.

However, some experience and skills that would help you in this role include:
- Experience leading projects as a Technical Project/Product/Program Manager or Infrastructure/Software Engineer.
- Experience delivering mid/large-scale initiatives, possibly across multiple teams.
- Strong solid understanding/experience of Agile practices including Scrum, Kanban.
