About the Role

Swish Analytics is seeking a Director of Project Management to build the operational backbone for coordinated delivery across the company. This is a build role focused on owning how work is planned, prioritized, tracked, and delivered, leading cross-functional programs essential for company-wide execution. The role involves setting the standard for the PMO and partnering directly with founders and department heads, with success measured by predictable and visible organizational execution against goals.

Responsibilities

  • Direct ownership of cross-functional programs spanning Trading, Engineering, Data Science, and Data Engineering, including dependencies, sequencing, risk, and tradeoff decisions.
  • Own and evolve frameworks for company-wide planning and execution, including intake, prioritization, change management, project lifecycle, definition of done, and release cadence.
  • Establish cadence, instrumentation, and reporting to make work visible from company strategy to individual execution, surfacing risks early and making reprioritization a deliberate decision.
  • Partner with department heads to raise delivery discipline across all teams through influence and demonstrated value.
  • Lead, develop, and grow the PMO, setting behavioral and craft standards, coaching, and building team capacity.

Requirements

  • Experience building or substantially rebuilding a program management function, not just running projects within an existing system.
  • Experience owning large programs that spanned multiple engineering and technical organizations with accountability for delivery across boundaries.
  • Ability to build systems for adoption, thinking like a product person.
  • Experience operating as a peer with department heads and founders, influencing without formal authority.
  • Sound judgment under pressure, ability to escalate cleanly, navigate competing priorities, and make strategic decisions on which battles to fight.
  • Experience in sports, sports betting, fintech, or real-time data environments (preferred).
  • Background scaling a program management team through rapid company change (preferred).
  • Familiarity with the Atlassian stack (Jira, Confluence) and lightweight automation (preferred).
