HybridInformation TechnologyFull-time
What You'll Do
- Own delivery across engineering projects: scoping, sequencing, tracking, and shipping, end to end
- Translate priorities from Product and Executive leadership into clear, sequenced project plans that Engineering can actually execute against
- Run the day-to-day cadence: standups, sprint planning, retros, and whatever rituals actually keep the team moving instead of slowing it down
- Identify and clear blockers before they become excuses, whether that's a dependency, a vendor, or a resourcing gap
- Manage cross-functional coordination between Engineering, Product, and other teams so nothing falls through the cracks
- Track project health and communicate status clearly to leadership, including the risks nobody wants to say out loud
- Own technical documentation and process rigor without burying the team in overhead
- Balance multiple concurrent projects across our trading platform, prop firm, and brokerage lines without losing the thread on any of them
What You Bring
- A track record of managing technical/engineering projects in a fast-moving environment, ideally in fintech, trading, or SaaS
- Much enough technical fluency to have real conversations with Engineering about architecture, tradeoffs, and dependencies, not just deadlines
- Strong instincts for prioritization: you know what actually needs to ship now versus what can wait
- Comfort holding people accountable, including engineers and leadership, without becoming a bottleneck yourself
- Genuine interest in trading, markets, or prop firm culture. You don't need to be a trader, but you should get why this space is exciting
- Speed without sacrificing rigor. We operate in a fast-moving, high-volume environment
- Comfort with ambiguity and shifting priorities across a small, fast-scaling company
- A thrive-in-chaos mindset: you're energized by a small, fast-paced team where the best idea wins, not the loudest title
Bonus Points
- Experience managing projects for a trading platform, prop firm, or brokerage
- Familiarity with agile/scrum tooling (Jira, Linear, or similar) and running the process without letting it run you
- A background as a former engineer or technically-adjacent role
- A track record of turning a chaotic backlog into a shipped roadmap
