Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. The client is an AWS Premier Tier Software Partner delivering cloud and AI projects for enterprise customers across North America and EMEA. The Project Manager will own end-to-end delivery of AWS cloud and AI projects, manage client and technical stakeholders, coordinate distributed teams, and control project scope, budget, timelines, and risks.
Responsibilities
- Own the full project lifecycle: planning, resourcing, execution, and delivery
- Manage stakeholders on the client side, including up to C-level when needed
- Choose the right methodology for each project (Agile or Waterfall) instead of forcing one framework onto everything
- Coordinate distributed technical teams across time zones, including regular alignment with the European team
- Keep scope, budget, and timeline honest, and flag risks before they become problems
Skills
- You'll need your own registered business entity (LLC, S-corp, sole proprietorship, or similar) to sign the contract
- Due to the end client's contractual and security requirements, this role requires US citizenship
- You must also be physically based in the United States with the legal right to operate a business there
- 5+ years running IT projects, with real hands-on experience on AWS cloud projects
- Have managed IT projects for external clients as a consultant or contractor, not just internal company projects
- Fluent English, remote-work discipline, and a track record of finishing what you start
- Must be a US citizen, based in the United States, with an active registered business entity to contract through
- Remote, with regular calls in US business hours and periodic overlap with the European team
- Exposure to AI/ML projects (MLOps, LLM-based systems, data pipelines) is a strong plus. You don't need to code, but you need to understand what your engineers are talking about
- Some Product Owner experience or skills are a plus, since you'll often be the one shaping scope, not just tracking it
Benefits
- Remote
