About the Company:
The tech space is crowded, but most solutions feel like they are cut from the same cloth - missing the mark on what businesses truly need. Organizations are chasing innovation, but too often, it comes at the expense of flexibility, independence, and real technological depth. At Dawn Technologies is a niche company laser-focused on delivering specialized tech solutions in Gen AI, Data Engineering, and Backend Systems. What sets us apart is our commitment to the technologists - the creators, problem-solvers, and innovators who bring true value to transformation. We believe that teamwork plus talent equals exceptional results. We are looking for teammates who are great problem solvers and enjoy collaborating within a team to achieve big outcomes.
We are looking for a meticulous and results-driven Technical Project Quality Auditor to ensure that project execution aligns with defined scope, timelines, and delivery commitments. This role focuses on evaluating project lifecycle compliance, validating delivery against contractual and internal standards, and identifying areas of deviation or risk to ensure successful project outcomes.
Key Responsibilities:
- Audit project documentation and execution against approved scope, schedules, and deliverables.
- Verify that projects follow defined governance models, stage-gate reviews, and compliance checkpoints.
- Assess alignment of delivered outcomes with project charters, business requirements, and technical specifications.
- Identify deviations in scope, schedule, budget, and quality; report variances with root cause insights.
- Review change request processes to ensure proper justification, approval, and impact analysis.
- Evaluate adherence to delivery methodologies (Agile, Waterfall, Hybrid) and project management best practices.
- Collaborate with PMs, delivery leads, and stakeholders to close non-conformities and ensure corrective actions.
- Maintain audit trails, compliance logs, and dashboards for reporting project health and delivery assurance.
- Participate in risk reviews and contribute to mitigation planning from a delivery compliance perspective.
- Support internal and external project audits, including client-facing reviews where applicable.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Technology, or Project Management.
- 5+ years of experience in project auditing, PMO governance, or delivery assurance in a technical environment.
- Strong understanding of project lifecycle management, scope control, and delivery frameworks.
- Familiarity with project tracking tools (e.g., MS Project, JIRA, Asana, Smartsheet).
- Working knowledge of contractual delivery compliance and SLA adherence.
- Certifications such as PMP, PRINCE2, or CMMI Associate/Auditor preferred.
Key Competencies:
- Analytical mindset with high attention to detail.
- Strong communication and reporting skills.
- Ability to manage cross-functional audits across multiple projects.
