Technical Project Manager (With Former Developer / DevOps Background)

Were you once the person writing the code… and now you’re the one making sure it makes it to production successfully?

We’re looking for a Technical Project Manager who understands software development from the inside. Someone who can speak the language of engineers, understand the realities of deployments, and bring structure and accountability to complex technical initiatives.

Many of our strongest candidates started their careers as software developers, engineers, or DevOps specialists before moving into project leadership. If that sounds like your path, this role may be a strong fit.

About The Role

As our Technical Project Manager, you’ll lead the planning and execution of initiatives across our SaaS platform, including product enhancements, infrastructure improvements, and customer deployments.

You’ll work closely with Engineering, Product, QA, and Operations to ensure projects move from idea to production with clear priorities, realistic timelines, and disciplined execution.

This role sits at the intersection of technical depth and strong project leadership.

What You’ll Do

• Lead end-to-end delivery of SaaS platform initiatives, feature releases, and infrastructure improvements
• Coordinate cross-functional teams across Engineering, Product, QA, and Operations
• Manage DevOps-related initiatives including CI/CD pipelines, release planning, and environment coordination
• Translate technical requirements into structured project plans with clear milestones and dependencies
• Facilitate Agile ceremonies including sprint planning, stand-ups, retrospectives, and release reviews
• Identify risks early and drive resolution before they impact delivery
• Ensure production readiness and oversee post-deployment validation
• Use SQL and technical insight to validate data and troubleshoot issues when needed
• Maintain clear project visibility and reporting for leadership
  
  
  

What Makes You Successful in This Role

• You started your career in development, engineering, or DevOps and later transitioned into project management
• You’re comfortable reading code and discussing technical trade-offs with engineers
• You know how to bring structure and accountability to technical teams without slowing them down
• You understand SaaS environments, deployments, and production systems
• You communicate clearly, resolve conflicts professionally, and keep teams focused on outcomes
  
  
  

Experience We’re Looking For

• 5 years of combined technical and project management experience
• Background in software development, engineering, or DevOps
• Experience managing SaaS or cloud-based application deployments
• Strong SQL skills (queries, joins, validation, troubleshooting)
• Experience working in Agile environments using tools such as Jira or Azure DevOps
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or related field preferred
• PMP, Scrum Master, or similar certification is a plus
  
  
  

Why This Role Works Well for Former Developers

This isn’t a role for someone who only manages timelines and meetings.

We’re looking for someone who understands the technical work, asks the right questions, and helps teams deliver complex projects successfully.

If you’ve moved from building software to leading delivery, you’ll likely feel right at home here.

This Role Is Likely NOT a Fit If

• Your background is strictly project management with limited technical exposure
• You are not comfortable discussing code, deployments, or system architecture
• You prefer managing timelines rather than engaging in technical problem-solving
