• Agile Project Management: Define project scope, manage sprints, track backlogs,

and ensure timely software releases while maintaining strict budget controls.

• Integration & Testing: Oversee system integrations, user acceptance testing (UAT)

with site teams, and ensure high app performance, security, and scalability.

• Risk & Change Management: Proactively identify technical bottlenecks, scope creep,

or deployment risks, and implement mitigation strategies.

• Reporting: Prepare and present data-driven technical progress reports, milestone

achievements, and product roadmaps to leadership.

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering,

Information Technology, or a related technical field.

• Experience: 5 years of proven experience as an IT/Software Project Manager,

specifically delivering construction-related software, mobile apps, or PropTech

(SDLC), Agile/Scrum methodologies, API integrations, and cloud environments.

• Industry Knowledge: Solid grasp of construction workflows, site operations, or

common industry pain points to effectively build/deploy relevant tech solutions.

• Tools: High proficiency with project management and development tools (e.g., Jira,

Confluence, Trello, Asana, MS Project).

• Language: Excellent communication and presentation skills in English.

• Mobility: Willingness to relocate to Saudi Arabia (if not already based there).

Nice to Have:

• PMP, PMI-ACP, or Certified Scrum Master (CSM) certification.

• Prior experience in the Saudi Arabia/GCC tech or construction market.

• Experience working in fast-paced software startups or technology consulting firms.
