About WerQ AI & This Opportunity:

At WerQ AI, we’re building the world’s first Career Intelligence & Relationship Management™ (CIRM™) platform to put professionals at the center of their own career ecosystem. With deep agentic AI designed to work for you, not against you, we automate repetitive and tedious workflows, freeing your time to focus on what truly matters: your skill growth, your connections, and future-proofing your career.

We entered beta last month and are actively enhancing our platform with valuable feedback from our early testers. As we prepare for our public launch and raise our seed round (expected to close in February 2025), we’re planning to build our team. Applying now allows us to connect early, streamline interviews, and have a rapid onboarding process once funding is secured. If you’re excited to help shape the future of work that is more people-centered, we’d love to hear from you!

About the Role:

The Technical Program Manager will own the planning, coordination, and execution of WerQ AI’s multifaceted projects. You’ll collaborate closely with product, engineering, AI/data, design, and external partners to keep everyone aligned, on schedule, and moving toward shared goals. As the central point of contact for project timelines, dependencies, and deliverables, you’ll ensure our ambitious roadmap becomes a reality—on time and with high quality.

Responsibilities:
  • Program Planning & Execution: Drive end-to-end project lifecycle, including scope definition, timeline creation, risk management, and execution oversight.
  • Cross-Functional Coordination: Facilitate communication between product, AI, data, design, and infrastructure teams to ensure alignment on deliverables and timelines.
  • Agile Oversight: Lead daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and retrospectives, ensuring blockers are removed and teams stay on track.
  • Stakeholder Management: Regularly update leadership and key stakeholders on project progress, risks, and mitigations.
  • Resource Allocation: Work with team leads to determine resource needs and optimize team capacity across concurrent projects.
  • Continuous Improvement: Identify process inefficiencies, propose solutions, and drive improvements for better speed, agility, and quality.
Who You Are (Culture & Value Fit):
  • Organized & Detail-Oriented: You excel at juggling multiple priorities without losing sight of critical details.
  • Collaborative & Empathetic: You value diverse perspectives and have a knack for bringing teams together to solve problems.
  • Adaptable & Resilient: You remain calm under pressure and pivot quickly when project requirements shift.
  • Communicative & Transparent: You keep stakeholders informed with clarity and ensure everyone has the information they need to succeed.
What You Can Do (Experience & Expertise):
  • Technical Program/Project Management: 3 years of experience managing complex, cross-functional programs in a tech or SaaS environment.
  • Agile Methodologies: Demonstrated success leading sprints, scrum ceremonies, and release cycles.
  • Technical Fluency: Comfortable discussing APIs, cloud infrastructure, AI workflows, and data pipelines with engineering teams.
  • Risk Management: Skilled at identifying, tracking, and resolving project risks before they become roadblocks.
  • Strong Communication Skills: Adept at delivering concise project updates and effectively managing stakeholder expectations.
Tool Proficiency:
  • Experience with tools like Jira, Trello, Asana, or similar project management platforms.

Why Join Us:
  • Shape the messaging of a platform redefining the future of work.
  • Join a collaborative, remote-first team with a strong mission.
  • Opportunity for growth in a fast-scaling startup.
