We’re looking for a hands-on Lead Technical Project Manager to help guide the delivery of a large-scale custom software suite that includes native mobile apps, an employee web portal, and a participant-facing web application. This is a dynamic, detail-oriented role for someone who enjoys bringing structure to complex work, aligning teams, and driving software initiatives from concept through rollout in a regulated environment.

Responsibilities

• Lead technical project management efforts across multiple digital products and delivery workstreams.
• Build and maintain detailed project plans, timelines, dependency trackers, and resource coordination tools to keep work moving forward.
• Partner with product, design, engineering, and operations teams to align priorities and remove blockers.
• Communicate project status, risks, and decisions clearly to stakeholders and leadership.
• Support end-to-end delivery of new software initiatives, including mobile and web-based solutions.
• Help coordinate software rollout, adoption planning, and scaling efforts across internal and external user groups.
• Create or improve implementation documentation, SOPs, and training materials to support successful adoption.
• Work proactively to keep timelines, scope, and execution aligned in a fast-moving, cross-functional environment.

Skills

• 5–10 years of experience delivering custom software projects.
• Background managing multiple products or platforms in a regulated environment.
• Direct experience launching new software products from the ground up.
• Strong understanding of software development processes, architecture, APIs, and design principles.
• Advanced project management skills, including creating Gantt charts, multi-workstream plans, and resource tracking tools.
• Ability to work hands-on, stay organized, and manage details without losing sight of the bigger picture.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams.
• Problem-solving mindset with the ability to navigate ambiguity and resolve blockers effectively.

Preferred Skills

• Experience supporting healthcare software or patient-facing digital products.
• Familiarity with product launch metrics and post-launch KPI tracking.
• Experience building implementation frameworks, SOPs, or training guides for software adoption.
• Ability to support organizational change and help teams scale new tools or processes successfully.
