# Agile Project Manager (Bridge-it)
- Location:** Remote (US/EU/India time-zone overlap)
- Type:** Full-time
- Start:** ASAP
## About Bridge-it
Bridge-it is a K-12 career-readiness SaaS platform. Were shipping fast across web (Next.js) and APIs (Django/Ninja), with AI/LLM features (LangGraph, RAG, pgvector/Supabase), and a multi-tenant architecture on Google Cloud.
## The Role
You will be the coordination hub between **Product/Design** and **Engineering**, running day-to-day agile ceremonies, unblocking teams, aligning priorities, and keeping delivery on track. This is a hands-on role for someone with a **technical + product mindset** who can translate vision into clean execution.
## What You will Do
- **Run daily ceremonies:** standups, backlog grooming, sprint planning, demos, and retrosown the agenda, notes, and follow-ups.
- **Backlog & roadmap flow:** translate PRDs into epics/stories with clear acceptance criteria; maintain sprint boards and definitions of done.
- **Cross-team coordination:** sync Product/Design (Figma, specs) with Engineering (tickets, estimates, dependencies) and AI team (data/RAG pipelines).
- **Delivery tracking:** define milestones, manage risks, escalate blockers, and drive decisions to closure.
- **Quality loop:** ensure specs dev QA release flows are tight; coordinate test plans and release checklists.
- **Stakeholder comms:** publish concise weekly status, burndown/burnup snapshots, and decision logs.
- **Process improvement:** evolve our agile playbook (working agreements, estimation hygiene, change control, release cadence).
- **Light tech/product work:** story mapping, wireframe reviews, API contract checks, or triage of Sentry/monitoring issues.
## Youll Thrive Here If You Have
- **Technical literacy:** comfortable reading tickets, basic API/DB concepts, and modern web stacks (Next.js/React, Node, Python/Django, REST/JSON).
- **Product mindset:** user-centric thinking, ability to challenge requirements, and sharpen acceptance criteria.
- **Agile discipline:** experience with Scrum/Kanban, writing user stories, and prioritization trade-offs.* **Operational rigor:** strong note-taking, follow-through, and crisp written updates.
- **Influence without authority:** empathetic, structured, and great at driving alignment.
## Nice to Have
- Experience with **multi-tenant SaaS**, SOC-2 style hygiene, or K-12/edtech.* Basic analytics/QA chops (Postman, pytest, Playwright/Cypress familiarity).
## Tools We Use
Jira (or Linear), GitHub Projects, Figma, Notion/Confluence, Slack, Google Meet, Sentry, Postman, GCP, Vercel/Netlify.
## What Success Looks Like (first 90 days)
**On-time sprints** with visible burndown and <10% rollover.* **Shippable increments** every sprint with clear demo notes and release checklists.* **Zero mystery work:** all work ticketed, sized, and linked to roadmap outcomes.* **Friction down:** at least two process improvements adopted by the team (e.g., better story templates, risk register, release calendar).
