  • Maintain a risk and issue log, and flag risks, blockers, and slipping dates early with a proposed path forward.
  • Run client meetings and internal project check-ins, ensuring clear owners, due dates, and next steps.
  • Coordinate project rollout and user adoption, including the handoff to production support after launch.

  • Ability to work independently and drive projects forward with minimal supervision.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • A very keen eye for detail.
  • Urgency and accountability in project execution.
  • Consistent follow-through: track every open item until it is closed.

  • SaaS, AI, or ML projects or technical implementations
