Technical Project Manager / Scrum Master
We’re supporting a client in defining and structuring a new technical initiative centered around financial systems and workflows. This includes collaborating directly with a fintech subject matter expert (SME) to capture requirements, prioritize features, and develop a roadmap for execution. The goal is to move from ambiguity to a clear, documented build plan.
What You’ll Do
* As a Technical Project Manager / Scrum Master, you’ll lead Agile ceremonies, ensuring alignment across business and technical stakeholders.
* You’ll serve as the central point of coordination, driving clarity on requirements, risks, dependencies, and delivery timelines.
* Facilitate sprint planning, daily standups, retrospectives, and backlog refinement sessions.
* Translate business objectives into structured user stories, acceptance criteria, and delivery milestones.
* Track project progress, surfacing blockers early and ensuring accountability across teams.
* Build and maintain detailed project documentation, including technical workflows, integration points, and success metrics.
* Act as a liaison between product owners, engineers, QA, and leadership to ensure priorities are aligned and transparent.
* Support continuous improvement by implementing Agile best practices and coaching team members on process adoption.
* Deliver structured status updates and reporting to stakeholders, highlighting risks, dependencies, and mitigation strategies.
What We’re Looking For
* 5+ years of experience as a Technical Project Manager or Scrum Master, ideally in software or data-driven projects.
* Strong knowledge of Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and experience adapting frameworks to team and organizational needs.
* Proven track record leading cross-functional teams and delivering complex technical initiatives on time.
* Ability to create and maintain technical documentation (user stories, workflows, integration maps, risk logs).
* Experience managing dependencies across multiple systems, teams, or vendors.
* Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to translate technical detail into business value.
* Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in fast-moving environments.
* Proficiency with project management and collaboration tools such as Jira, Confluence, Trello, Notion, or Asana.
