Strong Junior Project manager

to $1500

Hi!
 

We are looking for a Junior+ Project Manager to join our team and grow into ownership of real, live projects โ€” with direct, one-on-one mentorship from our Senior PM, who is moving into a bigger role and will personally guide you into hers.

This is a long-term investment hire: we're optimizing for potential, mindset, and growth trajectory, not for a polished CV. If you're a junior developer or QA engineer who's been eyeing a move into project management, this role was built with you in mind.
 

 

Required Skills & Experience

  • 1โ€“1.5+ years of experience in management, coordination, or an adjacent role (this is a must โ€” candidates with zero IT or PM background will not pass screening)
  • Strong analytical skills and critical thinking โ€” you ask "why," structure your thinking, and notice inconsistencies
  • Basic understanding of the SDLC and the PM role โ€” you can explain in your own words how software gets built and what a PM actually does
  • A real sense of ownership โ€” evidence of taking initiative or driving something to completion without being asked
  • Confident written and spoken English, B2+-C1, (distributed team + client communication)
     

Nice to Have
 

  • Hands-on experience with Jira/Confluence
  • PM courses or certifications
  • Higher education in any field (PM-specific education is not required)

Key Responsibilities

  • Support project delivery alongside your mentor: planning, task tracking, status updates, meeting follow-ups
  • Coordinate a distributed team day to day โ€” keep communication flowing and remove blockers
  • Manage tasks and documentation in Jira and Confluence
  • Communicate with clients โ€” supervised at first, independently over time
  • Track scope, timelines, and risks, and escalate early
  • Gradually take full ownership of projects from your mentor's portfolio
     

Why Join

  • Direct, one-on-one mentorship from an experienced Senior PM โ€” structured and consistent, not "ask if you have questions"
  • Real projects and real responsibility from the start
  • A proven growth path: this role exists because the current PM grew into a bigger one
  • Fully remote, flexible, supportive team
     

Growth Path

First weeks: shadowing and supporting your mentor on her active projects. Next: your first fully owned project, with backup close by. Within 3โ€“6 months: an independent PM with your own portfolio โ€” and the ladder doesn't end there.
 

Hiring Process

  • Recruiter interview
  • Technical interview + mini test task
  • Final interview
     

Please note: We carefully review every application, but will respond only to candidates whose skills and experience best match the role requirements. Thank you for your understanding!
