Technical Project Manager

DXG Program Management Office – Technology Platforms & Enablement

The Technical Project Manager delivers technology initiatives and workstreams (e.g., AI tooling assessment, pilots and enablement, DevOps/CI-CD improvements, operational excellence enhancements), focused on roll-out, adoption and operationalization.

This role requires a practical working understanding of technical delivery and operations to coordinate across engineering, Architecture, QE, Security, DevOps and other technical stakeholders. The focus is execution, coordination, and operational outcomes—not product feature delivery.

The role operates with moderate autonomy, applying established delivery practices and escalating more complex decisions as needed.

  • Integrated plans and dependency management are established early; milestones are met with clear accountability.
  • Risks (stability/performance/security/readiness) are identified, tracked, mitigated, and escalated with clear options.
  • Rollouts land with operational readiness, documentation, and measurable adoption of agreed tools/processes.

  • Apply working knowledge of PDLC, DevOps, CI/CD, QA, and change management to support delivery execution.
  • Use tooling such as Jira, Confluence, SharePoint, ServiceNow, and PowerBI dashboards as systems of record; support adoption and consistent usage.

Risk, Stability & Operational Outcomes

  • Identify and manage risks related to tools stability, performance, security, and operational readiness.
  • Support initiatives focused on improving usage, adoption, reliability, and cost optimization.
  • Escalate issues appropriately and support resolution in partnership with senior technical leaders.

Communication & Reporting

  • You will be responsible for running ceremonies, dependency management, governance, change & comms planning, data-driven reporting
  • Provide clear, concise delivery updates to stakeholders, translating technical progress into understandable outcomes.
  • Maintain project documentation to support transparency and auditability.

Experience & Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience. PMP/CSM/cloud certs are a plus.
  • Experience delivering technology initiatives (GenAI, cloud. Tooling, DevOps, infrastructure) and managing dependencies across teams.
  • Solid understanding of software delivery lifecycles (GenAI, DevOps, CI-CD and Developer tooling) and ability to work effectively with technical specialists.
  • Exposure to AI-enabled systems is a plus.
  • Strong execution, organization, written/verbal communication; comfort with delivery and operations tools (Jira, Confluence, ServiceNow, monitoring, logging).
