about the role

remote position, Romania only

We're looking for a Senior Project Manager to join a 40-week, milestone-based program for one of our clients, a multi-brand software company: converting its applications to a target .NET version and migrating its MSSQL and Oracle databases, including change-data-capture (CDC) feeds, to PostgreSQL.

You'll keep that machine running. The work moves group by group: each application and database group is converted, parity-tested against replayed production traffic, load-tested and made deploy-ready, with customer sign-off at every step.

what you'll do

  • Run project kickoff and own the milestone schedule and RACI across 13 payment milestones.
  • Coordinate conversion groups, customer sign-offs, cutover rehearsals, dry runs and cutovers.
  • Track blockers and dependencies, making sure every blocker has a documented remediation path.
  • Plan and manage the engineering ramp-up as application, data and CDC teams join the program.
  • Keep customer stakeholders, operations and DBA teams aligned on exit criteria and acceptance.
  • Report status, risks and milestone readiness clearly and concisely.
  • Organize knowledge-transfer sessions and the closeout package at handover.

requirements

must have skills:

  • 7+ years in IT project or delivery management, including milestone-based client engagements.
  • Proven delivery of migration or modernization programs (application, platform or database).
  • Comfort with customer sign-off gates, cutover planning, rollback routes and RACI.
  • Strong risk, dependency and stakeholder management across multiple workstreams.
  • Concise written and verbal reporting for technical and business audiences.
  • Fluent English, comfortable working directly with client stakeholders.

nice to have skills:

  • .NET or database migration fluency (MSSQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL)
  • Experience with fixed-scope or payment-milestone contracts
  • PMP, PRINCE2 or similar certification
  • Experience coordinating hypercare and production cutovers

Curious to find out more? We are excited to meet you!
