As Technical Project Manager, you will own the Technology organization’s commitments into those projects. You will work with Delivery PMs to understand upcoming needs, schedule Technical Field Engineer (TFE) support, coordinate hardware and software dependencies, and ensure technical capabilities are ready when projects need them. Because the same Technology teams also perform R&D, develop new capabilities, and support existing deployments, you will help balance customer-project demand against available capacity and internal priorities. You will also coordinate smaller technical initiatives such as testing and approving new sensors, gateways, and other technologies for production use. This role requires strong project-management fundamentals, technical fluency, and a practical understanding of Agile and Scrum.\nTechnical Requirements\n4+ years of technical project or program management experience, ideally involving hardware, software, IoT, networking, or field-deployed technology.\nExperience coordinating work across engineering, field operations, and project-management teams.\nStrong resource, schedule, dependency, and risk-management skills.\nAbility to manage multiple concurrent projects and competing priorities.\nFamiliarity with Agile principles and Scrum practices, including backlog management, sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives.\nEnough technical fluency to understand hardware, software, networking, and field-deployment dependencies and ask the right questions.\nStrong written and verbal communication skills.\nKey Responsibilities\nTechnology Resource & Schedule Planning\nCoordinate Technology resources required for customer deployments.\nForecast TFE demand and maintain visibility into team capacity and availability.\nWork with Delivery PMs to negotiate realistic schedules for Technology involvement.\nIdentify resource conflicts and technical dependencies early.\nEscalate priority or capacity conflicts when tradeoffs require leadership decisions.\nDeployment Readiness\nIdentify hardware, software, networking, and field-engineering requirements for\nupcoming projects.\nTrack Technology-owned milestones and dependencies against Delivery schedules.\nEnsure required hardware and software capabilities are ready before projects depend on\nthem.\nCoordinate technical changes, releases, and rollouts that affect customer deployments.\nKeep Delivery PMs informed of readiness risks, schedule changes, and constraints.\nR&D & Technology Rollouts\nCoordinate R&D efforts that affect field deployments or future customer projects.\nManage evaluation and validation of new sensors, gateways, and other field\ntechnologies.\nCoordinate testing, acceptance criteria, pilots, and production-readiness reviews.\nHelp transition validated technologies from R&D into standard deployment use.\nBalance R&D work against customer-project and field-support demands.\nTechnology Team Planning\nMaintain visibility into work across customer deployments, field support, R&D, and\ntechnical initiatives.\nSupport backlog prioritization and capacity planning across the Technology organization.\nFacilitate planning and coordination cadences using Agile/Scrum practices where\nappropriate.\nSurface cross-team dependencies and competing priorities.\nImprove planning processes based on project outcomes and recurring bottlenecks.\nNice-to-Haves\nExperience with IoT, sensors, gateways, or connected hardware.\nExperience coordinating both hardware and software development.\nExperience with field engineering or distributed technical teams.\nFamiliarity with data centers, building technology, controls, or operational technology.\nWorking knowledge of networking, cellular, LoRaWAN, or related communications\ninfrastructure.\nExperience with Jira, Linear, or similar planning tools.\nScrum, Agile, or PMP certification.\nThe Profile\nGood at seeing scheduling conflicts and technical dependencies before they become project problems.\nWhen a Delivery PM needs field engineers, new hardware, or an upcoming software capability, the Project Manager Technology wants to understand whether the people and technology will actually be ready-not simply put the requested date on a calendar.\nComfortable negotiating priorities and schedules across teams with different objectives.\nCan work effectively with engineers without needing to be the subject-matter expert and understands enough about hardware and software development to recognize meaningful risks and dependencies.\nAppreciates Agile and Scrum as tools for visibility, prioritization, and continuous improvement, and knows that hardware, field work, and customer deployments do not always fit neatly into a software-development process.\nMost importantly, creates a reliable link between Delivery and Technology: Delivery understands what Technology can commit to, and Technology has enough visibility and planning discipline to meet those commitments.\nWhy Join Motion\nPlay a pivotal role in shaping the strategy, direction, and market presence of a rapidly growing company.\nInfluence the future of data center construction through innovative technology.\nWork with a high-performing executive team committed to impact, transparency, and excellence.\nWhat We Offer\nCompetitive base salary + bonus\nStock option in Motion\nFull health, dental, and vision benefits, 401K, Flex time off policy\nOpportunity to join a fast-growing team with a mission to shape the future of Data\nCenter
