# Technical Project Manager (Application Development and Deployment)

- **Company:** CompassX Group Inc.
- **Location:** Los Angeles, CA, United States
- **Experience:** Expert
- **Contract:** Permanent contract
- **Skills:** Custom Software, Scrum Methodology, Software Engineering, Information Technology, Api Management, Web Api
- **Published:** September 25, 2026
- **Apply:** https://www.juju.com/job/16_088be816

## About the Role

* Proven Software Delivery Background: 8+ years of experience as a Technical PM, Scrum Master, or Agile Delivery Lead driving custom software development (mobile, web, or API integrations) - ideally in lean small-team environments rather than large enterprise PMO structures.
 * Backlog & Ticket Expertise: Strong ability to write technical specs and user stories and manage sprint boards.
 * Technical Fluency: A degree in Computer Science/Engineering or equivalent experience - you can comfortably talk code, review API endpoints, and digest technical architecture with developers.
 * Comfort with Physical Devices: Willingness and ability to test and validate builds on physical hardware/endpoints as part of the release process - prior exposure to mobile apps, POS systems, digital kiosks, or connected devices is a plus.
 * Hybrid Availability: Based in LA / OC with the flexibility to work on-site where needed.
 * Builder Mindset: A preference for pragmatic, tenacious, and high-speed execution over heavy processes.

## Description

We are looking for a hands-on Technical Project Manager to drive delivery for a fast-paced custom software initiative. You will work with Operations to draw out the product vision and manage engineering to develop the platform. You will lead a core team through development cadences, manage the backlog, plan the releases, and clear blockers for the team.

This is a senior individual-contributor delivery role. We're looking for someone who understands the details and is less reliant on top-down governance structures.
What You'll Do

 * Drive Lean Agile Delivery: Lead daily standups, sprint planning, backlog grooming, and release tracking for a dedicated custom software engineering team.
 * Translate Product Goals into Technical Tickets: Turn high-level requirements into developer-ready user stories, technical tasks, or API integration specifications with clear acceptance criteria.
 * Unblock Software Engineers: Actively resolve bottlenecks, clarify edge cases, and maintain team productivity.
 * Hands-On Release Validation: Test, validate, and troubleshoot custom app builds directly on physical devices and endpoints as part of the release cycle.
 * Manage Dependencies & Stakeholder Updates: Keep sprint velocity predictable and provide clean, transparent progress updates to business and technology stakeholders without adding unnecessary administrative overhead
