Description
:
The AI Development Platform provides firmwide GenAI capabilities to enable the firm's tech teams to develop and deploy GenAI solutions to meet desired business outcomes.

This role is for a Technical Project Manager with a strong Scrum Master background, supporting a dynamic, fast‑changing team. The individual will focus on keeping the team unblocked from external dependencies, ensuring clear visibility into delivery status, risks, and issues for Product Owners, and guiding a pragmatic, gradual evolution toward mature and effective agile delivery. The role requires comfort operating in ambiguity, adapting approaches over time, and balancing structure with flexibility to enable consistent outcomes.

• Actively identify, manage, and resolve external dependencies and impediments across teams and stakeholders to ensure the squad remains focused and unblocked in its delivery.
• Leverage tools such as JIRA and Roadmunk to provide clear, transparent visibility into delivery status, risks, issues, and dependencies, enabling effective prioritization and decision making by Product Owners.
• Ensure deliverables, expected outcomes, roles, and responsibilities are clearly defined and communicated, while remaining adaptable as priorities and team structures evolve.
• Serve as a Scrum Master where appropriate, facilitating agile ceremonies and practices in a pragmatic way that supports delivery rather than imposing rigid process.
• Partner closely with Product Owners and Tech Leads to incrementally improve planning discipline, backlog clarity, and delivery predictability over time.
• Use metrics and tooling to surface trends and risks, focusing on actionable insights that help the team improve flow and execution.
• Maintain lightweight but effective project documentation and stakeholder reporting aligned to the pace and maturity of the team.
• Foster a collaborative, transparent team culture that encourages continuous improvement, learning, and shared ownership of outcomes.
• Support the team's gradual evolution toward mature, effective agile delivery, introducing structure and best practices incrementally as the team's context and readiness evolve.

• Demonstrated experience driving delivery in complex, fast‑changing environments.
• Strong grounding in Scrum and agile principles, with the judgment to apply them flexibly.
• Proven ability to manage dependencies, remove blockers, and improve delivery flow.
• Ability to provide clear, concise communication of status, risks, and issues to Product Owners.
• Deep expertise in JIRA and delivery tracking tools.
• Ability to influence behavior and outcomes without formal authority.
• Proven experience operating across siloed organizations, building alignment and cohesion to enable effective end‑to‑end delivery.
• Familiarity with GenAI, data, and compute infrastructure concepts.
• Hands‑on experience acting as a Scrum Master or agile delivery lead.

• Experience supporting teams as they evolve toward agile maturity, rather than operating only in fully mature agile environments.
• Hands‑on GenAI development experience.
• Financial services or large‑scale transformation experience.
