About the Role
Nuvo AI is looking for a Technical Project Manager to drive the planning, execution, technical coordination, and delivery of complex AI/GenAI and software engineering projects.
The role requires a strong technical background and the ability to work closely with AI/ML Engineers, Full-Stack Developers, Data Engineers, and QA/SDET teams.
This is not a traditional project coordination role. We are looking for someone who understands software architecture, AI/GenAI, APIs, databases, data pipelines, search, testing, and up-to-date application development, and can translate business/product requirements into executable technical plans.
The Technical Project Manager will act as the technical bridge between Product/Business stakeholders and engineering teams, ensuring that technical dependencies are identified, risks are managed, teams are aligned, and projects are delivered successfully.
Required Skills & Experience
Must Have
- 7–12 years of overall experience in software/technology projects.
- Strong technical background in software engineering, architecture, AI/ML, or data engineering.
- 3+ years of experience in Technical Project Management / Technical Program Management / Technical Delivery / Engineering Leadership.
- Experience managing cross-functional technical teams.
- Experience working with AI/ML or Generative AI projects.
- Strong understanding of LLMs, RAG, embeddings, vector databases, or AI-powered applications.
- Good understanding of Full-Stack application architecture.
- Good understanding of data pipelines, databases, APIs, and search technologies.
- Experience working closely with QA/SDET teams.
- Strong understanding of Agile/Scrum methodologies.
- Strong technical problem-solving and dependency-management skills.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills.
Preferred / Good to Have
- Experience working on AI-native SaaS platforms.
- Experience with Patent Intelligence, Legal Tech, Document Intelligence, Knowledge Management, or Search platforms.
- Experience handling large-scale structured/unstructured datasets.
- Experience with semantic or enterprise search systems.
- Experience working with AI-powered enterprise applications.
- Previous experience as a Software Engineer, Full-Stack Engineer, AI/ML Engineer, Data Engineer, Tech Lead, Solution Architect, or Engineering Lead.
- Hands-on coding or architecture experience.
- Experience taking products from requirements → development → testing → deployment → production.
