That only works if someone owns the delivery - scope, timeline, budget, and sprint execution and treats a slipping date as their problem, not a status-report line item. That someone is you.\nAs our Technical Project Manager, you'll run distributed engineering teams across India and three US time zones on customer engagements where the date is committed. You'll run the daily, sprint, and client cadences, translate fluently between engineering and business stakeholders, and push back on scope creep with data. Agents compress the repetitive engineering work, which makes delivery faster and makes your job sharper: shorter timelines leave no room for blockers that sit in a log for days. We're looking for the PM who gets things done who personally removes blockers, drives escalations to closure, and makes sure no risk reaches the client as a surprise.\nThis role is not for you if:\nYour default is to forward messages between the client and engineering.\nYour role has primarily been reporting and coordination without delivery ownership.\nYou've only facilitated agile ceremonies without driving delivery outcomes.\nSprint ownership and execution were largely driven by a Business Analyst or Product Owner in your previous roles.\nWhat you will do\nBuild the project plan in Smartsheet from the Solutions Architect's scope of work, real dependencies, a defensible critical path, sprint boundaries overlaid on the timeline.\nTrack scope, hours, and budget in real time. Flag burn-rate risk early and push back on scope creep with numbers, not gut feel.\nMaintain a live risk register. Spot risks before they become issues, surface the right ones to the client at the right time, and drive mitigation actively.\nMaintain a live RAID log (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies) and an action tracker with clear ownership, accountability, and timely closure.\nRun crisp daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and retrospectives that produce decisions, not discussions.\nRemove sprint blockers personally. Chase the client-side data dependency, escalate the stuck cloud permission, redirect pulled resources don't let \"waiting on\" sit in a log for days.\nHandle sprint-level risks in real time: reprioritize, descope, swap stories, or escalate before commitments slip.\nKeep trackers honest. Action items have owners and dates; delays are visible and followed up on time.\nTranslate technical progress into business language for the customer, and business priorities into clear, estimable requirements for engineers.\nFacilitate internal and external architecture reviews across India and three US time zones; document decisions and circulate them the same day.\nProduce weekly customer status updates a senior business leader can absorb in 90 seconds - RAG colors backed by evidence, not sentiment.\nOwn customer escalations and drive them to resolution. Communicate status, risks, and decisions needed - proactively, not reactively.\nOnboard engineers on customer systems, scope, process, deliverables, and documentation standards.\nCreate kick-off presentations, project charters, and tracking mechanisms in collaboration with the customer.\nMaintain meeting notes, recorded calls, and a clean project documentation library.\nReview and approve timesheets and leaves; keep capacity planning and team calendar management accurate.\nNegotiate scope changes with data. Produce formal change requests with impact analysis hours, timeline, trade-offs, options before anyone commits the team to additional work.\nDrive sprint predictability with velocity planning and burndown tracking; commitments are realistic and consistently met.\nRun backlog refinement with Principal Consultants or Technical Leads so stories are clear, prioritized, and estimable.\nWhat are we looking for\n3+ years of delivery experience on cloud engineering or data engineering projects.\n3+ years as a Project Manager working with customers in US time zones.\nHands-on fluency with Smartsheet, Jira / Confluence, and Clockify - you can stand up the tooling on day one.\nExcellent written and spoken communication, facilitation, negotiation, and coaching skills - you can hold your ground with a skeptical client engineering director and coach a junior engineer in the same afternoon.\nStrong prioritization and problem-solving instincts. You make trade-offs explicit rather than quietly absorbing them.\nA demonstrable track record of driving outcomes, not just reporting on them.\nDemonstrated experience managing at least one fixed-bid project from kickoff through closure, including scope change negotiation with clients.\nA strong grasp of Agile delivery metrics - velocity, burndown, sprint predictability - and the ability to use them to drive execution.\nComfort operating in ambiguous, fast-changing environments where requirements evolve; you bring structure proactively.\nYou will be preferred if you posses\nExperience managing Data Lake projects on AWS.\nProfessional Scrum Master™ (PSM) certification.\nManaging Jira Projects certification.\nSmartsheet certification.\nHow we work?\nAedeon absorbs scale. Engineers absorb judgment. The contract absorbs risk fixed-date delivery, with Mactores covering overage cost for delays inside our control. You're the person who keeps those three honest on a live engagement: the plan defensible, the burn visible, the risks surfaced before they cost anything. Our engineers embed with the customer's team and carry the delivery commitment personally. You carry the date.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5528,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Cloud Consulting & Migration","Data Engineering & Migration Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2021-12-17T18:40:46Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":3,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.115,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":1771,"expected_fill_days":87,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-24T06:02:35Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/mactores-technical-project-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/mactores-technical-project-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-24T20:17:47Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":29631,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-25T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":6938},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6938"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmactores-technical-project-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmactores-technical-project-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmactores-technical-project-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/mactores-technical-project-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmactores-technical-project-manager"}]}
