Domain Technical Project Manager

Job Description

As a Technical Project Manager (TPM), you will play a key role in driving and coordinating end-to-end technical project delivery, from solution design and architecture to deployment and customer transition.

This role calls for a strong combination of technical acumen, delivery governance, stakeholder engagement, and leadership skills to drive successful outcomes across multiple functional workstreams. While it does not involve direct product development responsibilities, it requires a solid technical foundation to effectively manage and deliver complex projects.

• End-to-End Delivery Ownership: Lead and manage the complete project lifecycle; initiation, planning, execution, validation, and handover, ensuring timelines, quality, and deliverables are met.
• Execution Planning & Tracking: Define comprehensive execution plans with entry/exit criteria, dependencies, risks, and mitigation strategies; maintain transparency through structured tracking and stakeholder reporting.
• DevOps & Toolchain Readiness: Ensure DevOps enablement (Git/Gerrit, Jenkins, SonarQube, Jira, SharePoint) is in place before project onboarding.
• Architecture & Design Alignment: Collaborate with Solution Architects to drive timely creation of HLD/LLD; facilitate design discussions, ensuring Dev and QA teams fully understand scope and requirements.
• Development & Quality Oversight: Work with Dev and QA Leads to track coding practices, code reviews, builds, unit tests, automation coverage, and maintain RTM; ensure secure, high-quality, and timely releases.
• Deployment & Release Management: Plan and manage environment-wise deployments, validate readiness, establish rollback procedures, and coordinate seamless handover with documentation and sign-offs.
• Stakeholder & Risk Management: Act as the single point of contact for project communications; publish dashboards and reports; manage internal resources; proactively identify and mitigate risks and issues across all stages.
