Senior Project Manager
Join us and work with Google
Aliz is conquering the world by building big data, machine learning and AI solutions as a certified Google Cloud partner. Given that we are growing, we need a Senior IT Project Manager who can lead our cloud migration/development projects. Your focus will be to ensure that both our customers and engineering teams are happy (🙂).
This role will suit you if you
- have an engineering background (worked as an engineer, your husband/wife is an engineer, read/code a lot - anything will fit, just be on top of what we are doing).
- can get to understand what our customer wants, and feel the thrill to get the most out of a relationship with them.
- understand what a software engineer can (and is willing) to do, and especially how to motivate them to do it.
- are OK with the fact that we have our revenue from our customers and understand how you can influence this (we are OK if you just pretend to like all of them - but do pretend at least 🙂).
- like to make things (code, tools, ways of doing things, relationships, etc..) better.
You will be responsible for
- managing international accounts, focusing mainly on the European region.
- gathering, analyzing, and documenting project requirements with our Sales Team.
- planning the project tasks and schedules with one of our architects.
- being the main point of contact for our customers.
- helping our Engineering team to keep the project on track.
- making our customers happy with predictable deliveries and proper communication.
- sharing mistakes and good practices with your colleagues so they can learn from them.
- managing the collaboration externally, so subsequent projects keep coming in.
- managing the collaboration internally, so your team will be happy to work with you on the next project as well.
Requirements
We’re looking for you if you
- speak English fluently.
- have any engineering background (Computer Science, Engineering, self-taught, … any of these are fine as long as you understand that you don’t understand everything)

- learn fast and can understand complex systems, especially how some seemingly small changes might impact the outcome
- have held a leadership role in software projects, like Project Manager, Delivery Manager, or Technical Account Manager.
