This role is ideal for someone who started their career in a technical track (DevOps, Infra, or Security) and later moved into project/delivery management. The PM will manage complex client-facing projects, coordinate cross-functional teams, and ensure on-time, high-quality delivery while maintaining compliance and governance. Key Responsibilities • Project Delivery & Execution • Lead end-to-end delivery of IT automation and security projects. • Create project plans, track milestones, and provide regular client and internal reporting. • Technical Understanding & Oversight • Review architecture diagrams, logs, and error reports to anticipate issues early. • Validate technical estimates and ensure realistic timelines with engineering teams. • Translate client requirements into actionable technical tasks without overloading engineers. • Client Engagement • Serve as the single point of contact for clients. • Explain technical impacts (e.g., infra compatibility, compliance risks) in business-friendly language. • Manage scope, customizations, and change requests effectively. • Cross-Functional Coordination • Align development, QA, DevOps, and infrastructure teams for integrated delivery. • Balance workloads across frontend, backend, infra, and security tracks. • Compliance & Governance • Ensure solutions align with enterprise standards (ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, etc.). • Track security and compliance requirements, including privileged access and audit trails. • Process & Risk Management • Define delivery governance: SLA tracking, dashboards, bug trend analysis. • Proactively identify risks and implement mitigation strategies. Required Skills & Experience • 10–12 years of IT experience, with at least 5 years in project/program management. • Prior hands-on background in DevOps, Infrastructure, or Security (not necessarily current coding, but strong technical grounding). • Proven success managing projects with multi-technology stacks (Frontend, Backend, Infra, Security). • Strong understanding of automation frameworks, privileged access/security concepts, and workflow orchestration. • Experience in client-facing delivery roles, handling escalations and requirement translation. • Proficiency in Agile/Scrum practices and tools (JIRA, Confluence). • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
