[Hiring] Project Manager @Escalon Services

Role Description

The Project Manager – Technology @ Cross-Functional Delivery is a first dedicated role of its kind for our team. This person will be embedded within the tech org but operating cross-functionally, a bridge between engineering/technical teams and non-technical stakeholders — translating both directions fluently. Owning the structure and visibility of all active workstreams across the organization.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Workstream & Delivery Management
  • Maintain a live view of all workstreams: owners, status, milestones, and blockers
  • Run planning ceremonies (kickoffs, sprint planning, reviews, retros) and keep them efficient
  • Decompose initiatives into well-scoped tasks with clear owners and timelines
  • Identify and resolve cross-functional dependencies before they become blockers
• Technical Translation & Stakeholder Communication
  • Translate technical work, trade-offs, and timelines into language non-technical stakeholders can act on
  • Help the VP of Technology communicate progress, risks, and decisions to leadership and the broader org
  • Prepare and deliver status updates, roadmap summaries, and exec briefings
  • Field incoming requests from non-technical teams and route/scope them appropriately with engineering
• Work Tracking & Best Practices
  • Own the work-tracking system (e.g., Linear, Jira, Asana) and ensure it reflects ground truth
  • Define standards for how tasks are written, estimated, tagged, and updated
  • Build dashboards that give leadership real-time visibility without manual status updates
  • Run retrospectives and continuously improve how the team plans and executes

Qualifications

• 4–7 years of PM or program management experience in a tech company or technical org
• Proven track record working directly with software engineers and technical leads
• Strong ability to communicate technical concepts to non-technical audiences — and vice versa
• Hands-on experience with modern work-tracking tools (Linear, Jira, Asana, etc.)
• Comfortable with ambiguity; able to create structure without waiting for it to exist
• Clear, concise written communicator — your updates reduce questions, not generate them

Requirements

• Experience in a startup or high-growth environment a strong plus
• PMP or agile certifications nice to have, not required

Benefits

• We offer a variety of health benefits, all available on the first day of the month following employment with us, to keep you and your family feeling fit and well.
• Medical, Dental and Vision options
• Life and Disability
• STD/LTD
• 9 Paid holidays each year
