Project Coordinator – Technical, Product Initiatives

Responsibilities

• Own the execution plan for an assigned initiative (e.g. platform migration, CRM/gamification rollout, payments integration) from kickoff through go‑live and a defined post‑launch monitoring period, tracking stability, adoption, and issue resolution before formally closing out the project
• Translate scope and priority set by the Product Owner into a working plan: milestones, sequencing, owners, and dependencies
• Identify and clear blockers daily - chasing decisions, unblocking engineers, escalating risks before they become delays
• Run the operating rhythm for the project: standups, check‑ins, and a single source of truth on status
• Coordinate across functions (engineering, compliance, CRM, payments, content, acquisition, design) without owning any of them directly
• Work hand in hand with the Brand Marketing Lead on relevant initiatives - this partnership is close and ongoing, not a handoff at launch
• Flag scope creep, timeline risk, or resourcing gaps early, with options - not just problems
• Maintain a clear record of decisions made and why, so the project doesn't relitigate the same debates
• Run post‑launch retros and feed lessons back into how the next initiative is planned
• Produce clear, concise status updates on a regular cadence that a non‑technical stakeholder or exec can read in under a minute and immediately know what's on track, what's at risk, and what decision (if any) is needed from them
• Build and maintain a project timeline (Gantt chart or equivalent) that accurately reflects sequencing, milestones, and dependencies - and keep it current as reality shifts, not just at kickoff
• Write structured risk logs: identify risks before they hit, rate likelihood/impact, assign an owner, and track mitigation - not just a running list of worries
• Map and visually communicate cross‑team dependencies (who's waiting on whom, what unblocks what) so bottlenecks are visible before they cause delay

• 3+ years leading cross‑functional delivery of technical or product initiatives (platform migrations, integrations, or system rollouts strongly preferred)
• Comfortable operating without formal authority - you get things done through clarity and relationships, not org‑chart power
• Strong instinct for what's actually blocking progress vs. what's just noise in a status update
• Clear, concise written and verbal communication - able to brief both engineers and executives on the same update
• Experience working alongside Product Owners/Product Managers with a clear understanding of where the line sits between the two roles
• Demonstrated ability to write clear status reports and risk analyses - bring writing samples or a portfolio example to interview
• Hands‑on fluency building and maintaining Gantt charts / timelines and dependency maps (e.g. Jira, Monday, Asana, MS Project, or similar) - this is a working skill we'll ask you to demonstrate, not just a checkbox
• Required:
  
  prior experience in iGaming - casino and/or sports betting with working knowledge of the space (platforms, CRM/gamification, payments/cashier flows, compliance rhythms) so you can hit the ground running without a long ramp‑up
