We are looking for a Technical Project Manager with at least five years of experience in managing local and/or international software IT projects to lead our largest local software development project. As an experienced Technical Project Manager with a background in Agile Scrum methodologies, you will be responsible for leading cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality technical solutions. Your role encompasses project planning, execution, and continuous improvement, ensuring alignment with organizational goals and client expectations. You will be based on-site at our customer’s premises in Riyadh, KSA. We also appreciate your technical skills, especially if you are familiar with Golang, Node.js or .NET, microservices and deployment.

What You'll Do

We offer you the unique opportunity to work and improve your skills with a diverse and geographically distributed team of technology and business experts around the world. You will get to work on various products/projects and execute the following responsibilities as a technical project manager:

• Collaborate with customers (and internal stakeholders) to define project scope, goals, and deliverables.
• Develop detailed project plans, timelines, and resource requirements.
• Conduct project kickoff meetings to align team members and stakeholders.

What You Have

As a technical project manager we prefer that you have:

• 5+ years of technical project management experience in the software development industry, IT service management or something similar. We encourage you to apply if you have less “years” of experience; the number of years is to give an average benchmark.
• Demonstrate the ability and willingness to continuously acquire new competencies and find creative solutions in response to changing priorities and needs.
• We want you to be organized in leading a project and within a professional setting to deliver high-quality customer experience.
• Strong command in Arabic and English in writing and speaking.
