About the role

We are looking for a Technical Project Manager with a strong software engineering background to help drive our ongoing software modernization journey.

Our environment consists of multiple mid\-sized software solutions with complex interdependencies. As we replace legacy systems, reduce technical debt, and introduce modern technologies and new products, we need someone who can maintain technical and organizational overview across initiatives.

This role combines project leadership, technical understanding, and solution thinking. You will operate at the intersection of engineering, architecture, and business \- ensuring that projects deliver sustainable technical solutions rather than isolated implementations.

This is not a traditional administrative PM role. We are looking for someone who understands software systems deeply and can actively guide technical decisions while ensuring structured delivery. Your focus will be on building sustainable systems, not just project completion.

Solid understanding of software architecture, system integration, and distributed systems

Ability to understand codebases and technical trade\-offs without necessarily coding daily

Experience working with modern software development practices (Agile, DevOps, CI/CD) are a strong plus

Desired Skills

Background as Technical Lead, Solution Architect, or Engineering Lead
