Project Manager, Business Systems​/ Tech Analyst, IT Project Manager

Powdr is a consulting and technology firm that helps organizations get control of their systems, data, and operations. We work where software development, ERP implementations, process improvement, and data intersect. Our clients come to us when things are messy, unclear, or not scaling, and they expect real progress, not status updates.

We operate with high standards, direct communication, and a strong bias toward execution. We value people who take ownership, speak plainly, and are comfortable being accountable for outcomes.

We value people who take ownership, communicate clearly, and can operate comfortably in ambiguity while driving projects to completion.

Powdr is hiring a Project Manager to lead complex client and internal initiatives across software development, ERP implementation projects, and process improvement efforts. This role is for someone who can step into ambiguity, create structure, and move work forward without constant oversight.

This is an actively involved role. You will be expected to challenge unclear requirements, tighten scope, and keep both Powdr teams and clients aligned and accountable. If you prefer projects where everything is defined up front and nothing changes, this will not be a good fit.

• Own full lifecycle delivery of client and internal projects, from initiation through closeout
• Develop and manage project plans, timelines, budgets, and resource allocations
• Lead projects across software development, ERP implementation projects, data initiatives, and operational process improvements
• Serve as the primary point of accountability for project outcomes

• Act as the daily liaison between Powdr and client stakeholders
• Set and manage expectations with executive sponsors, technical teams, and end users
• Facilitate status updates, steering committee meetings, and decision-making sessions
• Identify and resolve risks, issues, and scope changes proactively

• Apply structured project management methodologies (Agile, hybrid, or waterfall as appropriate)
• Drive process improvement within client environments and internal Powdr operations
• Ensure documentation, requirements, and deliverables meet Powdr quality standards
• Identify opportunities to standardize, automate, and improve delivery processes

• Coordinate with software engineers, data engineers, ERP consultants, and operations teams
• Translate business needs into clear technical and functional requirements
• Support pre-sales efforts by contributing to project scoping, timelines, and delivery plans

• 5+ years of experience in project management within technology, consulting, or enterprise systems environments
• Demonstrated experience managing:
  • Software development projects
  • ERP implementation projects (e.g., Net Suite, Dynamics, SAP, or similar)
  • Business process improvement initiatives
• Strong understanding of SDLC, system integrations, and data driven projects
• Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent projects with competing priorities
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail

• PMP, PMI-ACP, Scrum Master, or similar certification
• Experience working in consulting or professional services firms
• Exposure to data platforms, analytics, or cloud infrastructure
• Background in operational improvement, change management, or systems modernization

• Projects are delivered on time, on scope, and with minimal surprises
• Clients trust you as a steady, credible leader
• Internal teams have clarity on priorities, expectations, and next steps
• Processes get tighter, not messier, as projects progress

This role works best for someone who:

• Takes ownership and follows through
• Communicates clearly and directly
• Is comfortable pushing back when something does not make sense
• Prefers real progress over perfect plans

Powdr is not a place for passive coordination. We expect Project Managers to lead, decide, and drive work across the finish line.

• Competitive salary based on experience
• Performance-based incentives
• Flexible work environment (hybrid)
• Opportunity to grow with a scaling, data driven firm

Powdr is an equal opportunity employer. We evaluate candidates based on skills, experience, and alignment with our values.
