• Work with clients to agree scope, priorities, milestones, and acceptance criteria, and manage changes throughout delivery.
• Keep project boards and backlogs current, assign work, track progress, and make sure responsibilities and deadlines are clear.
• Act as Scrum Master, facilitating sprint planning, daily stand-ups, reviews, and retrospectives. Remove blockers and help the team improve how it works.
• Stay involved in architecture and implementation discussions. Review designs and code, challenge estimates where needed, and help resolve technical issues promptly.
• Prepare and present client project updates, status reports, delivery plans, and proposals for resolving risks or changes.
• Coordinate developers, architects, data engineers, QA, and DevOps, managing dependencies and making sure decisions are followed through.
• Maintain clear communication between US clients and India-based teams, including documented decisions and effective handovers.

What we’re looking for

• 10+ years of technology experience , including at least 3 years in technical project or delivery management .
• A background as a developer, technical lead, or solution architect , with current coding ability and a continued interest in building software.
• Experience delivering AI projects into production or operational use. You should be able to explain your contribution, the challenges involved, and the results.
• Experience delivering technology projects in energy, oil and gas, or utilities. Experience in at least one of these sectors is required.
• A Scrum Master certification , such as CSM, PSM I or above, or equivalent, alongside practical experience leading Scrum teams.
• A track record of handling projects independently, making decisions, anticipating problems, and keeping clients and teams aligned.
• Practical experience working with AWS , including an understanding of cloud architecture, deployments, and operational support.
• Working knowledge of Git , branching, pull requests, code reviews, and release processes.
• Experience using project management tools to manage backlogs, sprints, task allocation, and delivery reporting.
• Strong technical understanding across applications, APIs, integrations, and data pipelines, with the ability to propose workable solutions when the team needs assistance.
• Strong presentation and writing skills. You can produce clear client presentations and status reports and discuss technical issues with business stakeholders.
• Confident use of Microsoft 365 , particularly PowerPoint, Excel, Teams, SharePoint, and Word.
• Experience working with distributed engineering teams and directly managing client relationships.

Useful additional experience

• Kiro or similar AI-assisted development tools.
• Generative AI, AI agents, or ML-enabled applications.
• Data platforms, warehouses, data lakes, and ETL/ELT pipelines.
• CI/CD, containers, infrastructure as code, DevOps, or MLOps.
• Project budgeting, resource planning, and delivery forecasting.
