Project Manager
We are looking for an experienced Project Manager to coordinate the migration of our legacy Remote Game Server (RGS) platform to a new, modern backend that powers our online slot games. You’ll oversee a small, agile software team (around 10 members across Development and QA) and manage day-to-day planning, scheduling, and delivery activities. This is not a hands-on technical role, but it does require a solid understanding of how software projects run—especially in backend or platform environments. You will ensure milestones are met, risks are managed, and all stakeholders remain aligned throughout the migration.
Essential Duties
- Create and manage detailed project plans, timelines, and deliverables for the migration effort.
- Define milestones, track dependencies, and monitor progress against the schedule.
- Coordinate multiple workstreams (backend, QA, deployment) to keep delivery on track.
- Drive Agile ceremonies (sprint planning, daily stand-ups, reviews/retros) using Jira.
- Maintain clear, up-to-date tracking of all tasks, issues, and risks with owners and due dates.
- Manage a cross-functional team of up to 10 members across development and QA.
- Ensure team members have clear priorities and fully understand sprint goals.
- Support collaboration between technical teams and business stakeholders.
- Provide regular status updates and reports to leadership and stakeholders.
- Communicate risks, issues, and changes in scope clearly and early, with mitigation plans.
- Align with Product, Compliance, and Operations teams to ensure overall readiness.
- Facilitate discussions between non-technical and technical contributors to remove blockers.
- Work with QA to plan test cycles and ensure quality gates are met before releases.
- Coordinate release schedules and drive post-release follow-up on any incidents.
- Continuously refine project workflows for greater transparency and efficiency.
Qualifications & Requirements
Required
- 4+ years of experience as a Project Manager or Delivery Manager in a software or digital product environment.
- Experience managing cross-functional software teams (5–15 people).
- Strong knowledge of Agile/Scrum methodologies and hands-on experience managing projects in Jira.
- Excellent communication, organisation, and coordination skills.
- Comfortable working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Proven ability to manage scope, risk, and dependencies in complex projects.
Preferred
- Experience in gaming/iGaming or digital platform migration projects.
- Familiarity with backend systems, APIs, or cloud-based platforms (conceptual understanding).
- Experience working with remote or distributed teams.
