Overview

We are seeking a highly organized and proactive Technical Project Manager to lead strategic cloud technology initiatives from concept through completion, while also contributing to select on-premise software growth initiatives. This role is responsible for managing project scope, timeline, budget, and deliverables while ensuring alignment with strategic organizational objectives. The Project Manager will work cross-functionally with product development, engineering, operations, finance, and executive leadership to deliver solutions on time and within budget.

This role requires experience using AI tools to accelerate the management, tracking, and delivery of technical development, as well as the commercialization of new software initiatives, not just familiarity with AI in the abstract.

This is a full-time position reporting directly to the President of the company.

Key Responsibilities

Project Planning and Execution

• Develop, implement, and maintain detailed project plans including timelines, milestones, resource allocations, and risk mitigation strategies.

• Define project scope and objectives, ensuring alignment with business goals and stakeholder expectations.

• Lead project kickoffs, regular status meetings, post-project reviews, and the swift execution of action items.

• Track project progress and deliverables through established project management tools and reporting systems.

Strategic Planning and Performance Execution

• Partner with the President on strategic planning for our cloud growth initiatives and select on-premise innovation initiatives, translating strategic priorities into executable plans with clear ownership and timelines, assisting with on-time delivery within targeted budgets.

• Track execution against strategic milestones, not just project tasks, surfacing where performance is falling behind intent and driving corrective action.

• Contribute to the commercial and business planning view of key initiatives, partnering with Product, Engineering, and Sales to connect technical delivery to business outcomes.

Budget and Financial Oversight

• Establish and manage project budgets, including forecasting, tracking, and reporting variances.

• Ensure all project expenditures align with approved budgets and company financial policies.

• Provide quarterly budget summaries and variance analyses to leadership.

• Identify and operationalize opportunities for enhanced financial performance.

Communication and Reporting

• Serve as the central point of contact for project related communication across departments.

• Prepare and present regular progress reports, dashboards, and executive summaries for leadership review.

• Facilitate quarterly strategic reviews, providing updates on project status, key milestones, risks, and opportunities.

• Proactively engage with customers and prospects to solicit feedback on offerings and stimulate demand.

Risk and Issue Management

• Proactively identify project risks, issues, and dependencies, developing mitigation and contingency plans.

• Escalate critical issues promptly and facilitate resolution with appropriate stakeholders.

Continuous Improvement

• Contribute to the refinement of project management processes, tools, and best practices.

• Analyze project outcomes to identify lessons learned and opportunities for future improvement.

Qualifications

Education and Experience

• Bachelor's degree required, in Engineering, Business Administration, Project Management, or a related field. An MBA, or equivalent business experience translating technical execution into strategic and business outcomes, is considered a strong advantage.

• 5+ years of experience managing cloud, software product development, or technical projects preferred.

• Experience working in a cross-functional team environment with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Prior experience working in healthcare foodservice operations or bedside nutrition management is an advantage.

Skills and Competencies

• Experience using AI tools and workflows to accelerate the planning, tracking, and delivery of technical development initiatives, and to support the commercialization of new technologies from early development through go-to-market execution, is required for this role.

• Strong understanding of cloud and software product development life cycles.

• Proven ability to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously.

• Excellent communication, organization, and presentation skills.

• Proficiency in project management software such as MS Project, Smartsheet, Asana, or similar tools.

• Fluency in technical software development terminology and tasks at a high level.

• PMP or similar certification preferred.

Performance Metrics

• Timely delivery of project milestones.

• Budget adherence within approved tolerances.

• Scope management and change control effectiveness.

• Strategic milestone achievement and alignment between technical delivery and business outcomes.

• Stakeholder satisfaction and cross-functional collaboration.

This is a full-time position, ideal for someone self-motivated, dependable, and stable.
