Project Manager (Remote)
About the role
FMG's Product Operations team sits at the intersection of Product, Engineering, and the business — and we're growing. We're looking for a Project Manager who thrives in the complexity of software delivery: someone who can hold a complex program together, keep cross-functional teams aligned, and make sure the right things ship at the right time. This isn't a coordinator role. You'll own delivery across multiple product initiatives simultaneously, working alongside Product Managers, Engineering leads, and stakeholders across the organization. You'll be the connective tissue that keeps commitments visible, blockers surfaced, and delivery on track. You'll be embedded in a ProdOps team that operates as a force multiplier across the product org — which means your work will touch every product line we build.
Responsibilities & Expectations
- Own end-to-end project delivery.
- Plan, track, and drive software delivery projects from kickoff through release.
- Manage scope, timelines, dependencies, and risks across multiple concurrent initiatives without losing the thread on any of them.
- Run effective program-level meetings.
- Facilitate cross-functional syncs, steering reviews, and initiative-level working sessions.
- Keep meetings purposeful and decision-ready — not just status updates.
- Maintain delivery visibility.
- Build and maintain clear, up-to-date project plans, roadmaps, and status artifacts that give leadership and stakeholders an accurate picture of what's in flight, what's at risk, and what's done.
- Remove blockers proactively.
- Identify impediments before they become delays. Escalate with context, not just noise, and follow through until the blocker is resolved.
- Drive cross-functional alignment.
- Partner with Product, Engineering, QA, Design, and business stakeholders to keep priorities clear and handoffs clean. You'll regularly facilitate conversations that require aligning people with different incentives and vocabularies.
- Support program-level reporting.
- Contribute to quarterly delivery reports, OKR tracking, and capacity planning. Translate project status into executive-ready communication.
- Document and systematize.
- Build the institutional knowledge that makes the team faster over time — process documentation, retrospective learnings, project templates, and delivery playbooks.
- Llean into AI.
- You use AI tools as a core part of how you work — not occasionally, but daily. You prompt effectively, evaluate output critically, and think about how AI can drive scale and innovation across delivery workflows. You should be able to articulate where AI creates leverage in program management, and you should already be doing it. This is a practitioner bar, not a builder bar — you don't need to write code or configure models, but you need to be ahead of the curve, not catching up to it.
Qualifications
- 4–7 years of project management experience, with meaningful time spent managing software delivery.
- Demonstrated ability to run multiple complex projects simultaneously across cross-functional teams.
- Strong working knowledge of Kanban; experience with other delivery frameworks is a plus.
- Excellent written and verbal communication — you can write a crisp status update and hold a room through a program review equally well.
- Proficiency with modern project management tooling; experience with Notion, ClickUp, or Linear is strongly preferred.
- Comfort operating in ambiguity and iterating your approach as priorities shift.
- Strong judgment about when to flex and when to hold the line on scope and schedule.
- Experience in financial services, fintech, or marketing technology — you understand the landscape our customers operate in.
- A genuine orientation toward innovation: you think about how processes, tools, and delivery models can scale, and you actively look for opportunities to do things better, not just faster.
