You will lead delivery across Data Engineering, Product Engineering, BI/Analytics, System Engineering, and NOC where shared infrastructure, legacy systems, and evolving platforms create complex, interdependent challenges. This is a hands-on execution role focused on planning, coordination, and delivery across teams with distributed ownership and competing priorities.

Education: - B.E. Computer Science / IT or equivalent engineering discipline

Experience: 5+ years

Work Timings: 5 PM to 2 AM

What You'll Do:

Must have a hands-on Data Engineering and/or Data Analytics background, with experience transitioning into Project/Program Management.

Own end-to-end delivery of complex, multi-team projects (scope, timelines, milestones, dependencies, risks, business impact)

Build and manage detailed project plans, ensuring alignment on sequencing, capacity, delivery commitments, and downstream reporting needs

Coordinate with Product Managers to align workstreams to roadmap priorities

Lead large-scale platform, data, and analytics migrations across data, application, reporting, and infrastructure layers

Coordinate across engineering teams (data, platform, application, BI, analytics) to manage dependencies, cutover readiness, and downstream impact

Drive day-to-day execution across concurrent workstreams, ensuring delivery against committed timelines

Facilitate sprint planning, status meetings, and retrospectives with engineering teams

Identify blockers and risks early; escalate with context and a recommended path forward

Partner with BI and analytics stakeholders to define reporting requirements, KPI definitions, dashboard needs, and validation criteria

Identify and remove blockers, manage risks, and escalate as needed to maintain momentum

Ensure continuity of systems, data flows, and business reporting through migrations, upgrades, and platform changes

Communicate progress, risks, mitigation plans, and business impacts clearly to stakeholders and leadership

Support alignment around data definitions, metric governance, and reporting consistency across teams and consumers

Adopt and apply AI tools (Claude, Gemini, or similar) to reduce manual overhead; status drafting, meeting summaries, risk flagging

Learn and use no-code/low-code automation platforms (e.g., Dify) to streamline PMO workflows

Contribute ideas and findings from your own work back to the broader team

Support rollout and training of new AI workflows as they are developed

What You'll Bring:

BS/BA degree required, preferably in computer science or technical disciplines

6+ years of project/program management experience in platform, infrastructure, data, BI, or analytics-intensive environments

Proven track record delivering complex projects across multiple engineering, analytics, and business stakeholder groups

Experience managing large-scale migrations or platform transformations (data, infrastructure, reporting, or application layers)

Strong understanding of distributed systems, modern data architectures (data lakes, warehouses, pipelines, services), and BI/reporting ecosystems

Ability to manage dependencies across shared platforms with multiple downstream consumers, including dashboards and analytical datasets

Strong stakeholder management and ability to drive alignment across competing priorities

Comfortable operating in ambiguous environments with evolving scope and priorities

Experience coordinating validation of data quality, reporting accuracy, and KPI consistency

Nice to Have:

Experience with infrastructure/platform programs (cluster migrations, upgrades, system modernization)

Experience with big data and modern data platforms (Hadoop, Snowflake, Doris, Vertica, etc.)

Experience working with digital publishing platforms (WordPress, Adobe Experience Manager)

3+ years of project management experience in a software development environment, working with geographically distributed teams

3+ years of hands-on Agile/Scrum experience & you have run sprints, not just observed them

Strong understanding of the full SDLC and how PM processes map to engineering execution

Familiarity with workflow orchestration and data pipelines (Airflow, dbt, Informatica, Pentaho)

Experience managing multiple concurrent projects or workstreams with structured prioritization

Experience with project tracking tools and specifically YouTrack and/or JIRA; Airtable or similar strongly preferred

Exposure to both cloud and on-prem platforms

Experience with BI/reporting tools (Tableau, Power BI, Looker)

Experience modernizing BI environments, including dashboard migrations or reporting consolidation

Familiarity with semantic layers, metrics layers, dimensional modeling, or governed reporting models

Familiarity with data governance, lineage, or compliance initiatives

Experience supporting self-service analytics, executive dashboards, or operational reporting
