Program/Project Manager

As Program/Project Manager at iSpeedToLead, you will drive both new niche launches and the continuous improvement of our core product. You’ll own the delivery of initiatives that expand our marketplace into new verticals while ensuring that the existing platform remains stable, scalable, and optimized for growth. This role is a blend of program strategy and project execution, involving building repeatable launch processes, managing cross-team delivery, and ensuring the health of our existing ecosystem.

What You’ll Do:

• Launch New Niches: Build and execute detailed project plans with clear milestones, owners, and success criteria for each niche launch.
• Strengthen the Core Product: Prioritize and deliver initiatives that enhance liquidity, improve subscription/upsell flows, and boost customer satisfaction.
• Program Management: Build and maintain the roadmap, balancing innovation with foundational improvements; maintain the Niche Launch Playbook and enforce launch gates (Concept → MVP → Scale).
• Project Tracking: Manage schedules in Jira, track dependencies, run & facilitate daily/weekly reviews, and proactively unblock teams.
• Metrics & Reporting: Define and track OKRs & KPI for both new launches and core product initiatives, ensuring transparent reporting to leadership on outcomes like revenue, liquidity, retention, and compliance.
•  Stakeholder Communication: Own communication with leadership and stakeholders through clear status updates, dashboards, and decision documents.
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Align Product, Sales, Data/AI, Ops, and Engineering on shared outcomes — managing dependencies and risks across both new launches and ongoing improvements.
• Risk & Compliance: Identify risks early and ensure compliance, data quality, and validation processes are embedded in all initiatives.
• Scalability & Continuous Improvement: Develop scalable processes and conduct post-mortems/retrospectives to ensure learnings are applied consistently across all initiatives, enabling repeatable and efficient launches.
   

What You Bring: 

• 4+ years as a Program/Project Manager in a high-growth, fast-paced tech environment (marketplace, SaaS, or startup).
• Strong execution discipline: able to manage multiple launches while keeping teams aligned on priorities and timelines.
• Proven ability to drive cross-functional delivery across diverse teams.
• Experience with multiple methodologies (Agile, Scrum, Kanban, Lean, and Waterfall when appropriate) and the ability to apply the right one based on project needs.
• Data-first mindset: confident in defining, tracking, and interpreting success metrics and OKRs.
• Skilled at creating clarity in complex environments through project plans, roadmaps, and structured communication.
• Excellent communicator: able to influence leadership and keep teams aligned and motivated.
• Upper-intermediate English level.

Nice-to-Have:

• Background in real estate, home services, or other two-sided marketplaces.
• Familiarity with Jira, Confluence, Segment/GA, Looker, and SQL basics.
• Experience coordinating AI/ML product features in production.
• Knowledge of compliance systems, consent verification, and data-quality workflows.
