Junior Project Manager
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Nov 4, 2026. First seen by Alion on Oct 30, 2026.
We're hiring a Junior Project Manager to join our delivery team in Tashkent and help run software and mobile app projects for US-based clients at Bolder Apps. This is an early-career role. You'll work next to experienced project managers, keep projects organized day to day, and talk with clients and engineers directly. You'll take notes on client calls, track tasks and deadlines, write clear status updates and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. Our engineering teams use AI tools every day, so projects move fast and we need someone who keeps the details in order. This is a full-time, hybrid contract role based in Tashkent, paid monthly, with at least 3 days a week in our Tashkent office. It is open to candidates in Uzbekistan only. Fluent English is a must, because you'll speak and write to US clients every day. Strong recent graduates and early-career PMs are very welcome, including graduates of leading Tashkent universities. If you're organized, curious about how software gets built and you like being the person who keeps a team on track, we want to talk.
About Us

We specialize in AI-powered development, full-cycle product creation, and engineering team augmentation. Our mission is simple: build bolder, faster, and smarter.
Our Culture & Values (read before applying)
We move fast. We take ownership. We work with AI, not against it. And we expect everyone to bring ideas, not wait for instructions.
There are no daily checklists, no micromanagement, and no corporate politics. Instead, you'll have autonomy, trust, and a team that's always ready to help you grow. At Bolder Apps, impact matters more than titles, and curiosity matters more than seniority.
If you want a place where you can level up fast and actually see your work making a difference - welcome aboard.
