Director - PMO, Change & Delivery Position Overview

Bullish is redefining the capital markets infrastructure by bridging traditional equity systems with blockchain-based tokenization. To drive this vision forward, we are seeking a Senior Technical Project Manager to bring the core business platform & services of a blue-chip, financial institution into Bullish’s advanced technical ecosystem. You will own the end-to-end delivery of complex, high-stakes engineering projects and large-scale data migrations into our modern architecture.

This is a highly unique and impactful opportunity. The work you do here will directly impact the future state of our combined business, and position Bullish as an enduring leader in the next chapter of capital markets infrastructure. If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you.

Design the roadmap and execution plan for the platform build out. Work closely with geo-distributed, cross-functional teams to transform architectural concepts into actionable, scheduled engineering backlogs. Establish clear migration roadmaps, sequencing plans, and cutover strategies to migrate core business services from legacy environments without disrupting active financial operations. Manage technical project scopes, delivery schedules, and resource allocations using modern Agile, Scrum, and Kanban frameworks.

Drive complex data migration initiatives transferring high-volume PII, sensitive financial records, and historical transaction datasets from multiple legacy systems into Bullish’s secure, scalable infrastructure while ensuring zero loss of data integrity and adhering to local regulations. Partner closely with Staff Engineers, Systems Architects, and Data Engineers to review data schemas, API contracts, ETL pipeline architectures, and cloud storage designs. Work with Security teams to ensure all data migration workflows adhere to strict encryption, auditing, and access control requirements.

Identify technical debt, legacy dependencies, and architectural risks early, driving alignment on technical trade-offs and mitigation strategies.

Act as the primary technical bridge between executive leadership, engineering, product, design, legal, compliance, and risk teams across both businesses. Translate intricate regulatory requirements and technical risks into clear executive summaries and operational dashboards for senior leadership. Maintain transparent project health metrics, dependencies trackers, and risk matrices.
