This role requires strong project management fundamentals combined with the ability to operate in ambiguous and rapidly changing environments typical of AI-driven development.

What you will be doing:

Technical & AI Collaboration

• Understand AI/ML development workflows, including iterative model development and deployment considerations

• Support coordination across evolving disciplines where AI is impacting traditional development models

Stakeholder Engagement

• Operate effectively across disciplines where traditional boundaries between engineering, product, UX, and data science are evolving

• Align priorities and timelines across global, cross-functional teams

• Communicate effectively with senior stakeholders across regions, ensuring clarity, context, and strategic framing.

• Build strong relationships and act as a trusted partner for project-related activities

• Influence stakeholders without direct authority and drive accountability

Risk, Dependency & Change Management

• Demonstrate strong ownership by proactively identifying risks, removing blockers, and driving accountability across teams

• Manage scope changes and ensure proper communication and alignment

Process Improvement & Operational Excellence

• Drive continuous improvement within the PMO, including tools, templates, and reporting practices

• Adapt project management practices to support highly collaborative and non-linear workflows

• Support standardization of AI project delivery approaches

• Lead process transformation initiatives, including automation and AI-driven enhancements.

• Leverage data and metrics to improve decision-making and execution outcomes

• Contribute to PMO maturity and best practices

Tool Utilization

• Ensure project documentation and updates are maintained in JIRA and other tools (e.g., Aha!, Teams, Power BI, SharePoint).

• Use project management tools to track progress, manage risks, and communicate effectively.

What you will likely bring:

Required

• 5+ years of experience in project management within software development or technology environments.

• Proven experience managing multiple complex, cross-functional projects

• Strong knowledge of Agile methodologies and SDLC practices

• Experience working in global, cross-functional team environments

Preferred

• Familiarity with AI/ML lifecycle concepts (data pipelines, model training, evaluation, deployment)

• Experience working with engineering and data science teams

• Exposure to cloud platforms and modern software architectures

• Experience with tools such as Jira, Aha!, Azure DevOps, or similar
