Job Description
About the Role
n
Saras Analytics is looking for a Technical Project Manager to drive delivery governance across its
n
Consulting team. This role sits at the intersection of client engagement management and technical
n
execution — coordinating with Engagement Leads, Data Engineering pods, and cross-functional teams
n
to ensure every client use case is delivered on time, with full visibility into risks and blockers.
n
The TPM will not just manage process — they will own delivery outcomes. That means understanding
n
what the client is trying to achieve (e.g., average order value trends, sales performance dashboards),
n
translating those into realistic project plans, and proactively flagging when timelines need adjustment
n
before commitments are broken.
n
n
What You Will Do
n
Project Planning & Sprint Management
n
● Own end-to-end project plans for consulting engagements — from client onboarding and
n
charter creation through milestone tracking to final delivery.
n
● Build and maintain sprint cycles (typically 2-week cadence) with explicit goals, backlogs, and
n
acceptance criteria for each sprint.
n
● Run sprint planning, sprint review, and retrospective calls with Engagement Leads and relevant
n
team leads.
n
● Maintain project workspaces in ClickUp (or equivalent tools) with consistent structure, fields,
n
and governance — ensuring cross-team visibility without redundant or conflicting data.
n
Delivery Ownership & Risk Management
n
● Track progress across all active consulting engagements and flag delays before they surface as
n
client escalations.
n
● Engage with Engagement Leads to validate timeline estimates — push back when scopes are
n
underestimated, and get commitments adjusted proactively.
n
● Coordinate dependencies across consulting, data engineering, and engineering/infrastructure
n
teams to unblock execution.
n
● Maintain a clear view of what each client is at, what stage their delivery is in, and what the next
n
sprint goal is at any point in time.
n
n
Stakeholder Communication
n
● Serve as the central coordination point between Engagement Leads and Data Engineering pods
n
— translate consulting asks into actionable technical tickets with proper acceptance criteria.
n
● Present bi-weekly delivery status updates to internal stakeholders; communicate sprint goals
n
and upcoming milestones clearly.
n
● Over time, participate in client-facing demos and delivery reviews (bi-weekly cadence),
n
representing project status and next sprint goals.
n
n
Process Governance & Adoption
n
● Drive adoption of standardised project management processes across consulting pods —
n
including ticket templates, milestone definitions, and sprint hygiene.
n
● Create and maintain process documentation for delivery workflows, escalation paths, and
n
onboarding playbooks for new team members.
n
● Conduct onboarding sessions for new joiners covering e-commerce domain basics, connector
n
landscape, and cross-team workflows.
n
n
What We Are Looking For
n
Must-Have
n
● 3–6 years of experience in project/program management, preferably in a data, analytics, or
n
tech services environment.
n
● Demonstrated ability to run Agile/Scrum workflows — sprint planning, backlog management,
n
retrospectives — with cross-functional teams.
n
● Strong coordination skills across multiple concurrent projects and stakeholders with competing
n
priorities.
n
● Experience working with project management tools (ClickUp, Jira, Asana, or similar) and the
n
discipline to enforce governance without losing team buy-in.
n
● Enough domain fluency to understand what a client ask involves technically — you don‘t need
n
to build dashboards, but you should understand what makes an average-order-value analysis
n
more or less complex.
n
n
Good to Have
n
● Familiarity with e-commerce and retail analytics concepts — connectors (Shopify, Amazon,
n
etc.), BI layers, data pipelines.
n
● Experience managing delivery in a consulting or client-services environment where expectations
n
are set externally.
n
● Comfort with client-facing communication — status updates, demos, expectation management.
n
● Understanding of data engineering workflows: connectors, data modelling, QA/certification,
n
and dashboard/presentation layers.
n
n
What Success Looks Like
n
● No client commitment is broken because a timeline risk wasn‘t caught early enough.
n
● Engagement Leads spend less time chasing cross-team dependencies and more time on delivery
n
quality.
n
● Sprint velocity and milestone adherence are trackable, visible, and consistently improving.
n
● New hires on the consulting team understand how delivery works within the first two weeks.
n
● ClickUp (or equivalent) is a single source of truth — not a contested, noisy system that people
n
work around.
