About The Position

ConstructConnect is hiring a Senior Technical Project Manager to lead complex, cross-functional technology delivery within the CTO organization. The role works alongside product leadership in a Product Operating Model, translating product strategy into executable, well-governed delivery. It calls for a leader who can run gated waterfall programs and coach Scrum or Kanban teams, communicate effectively with executives, and maintain engineers’ trust. The position uses AI-native tools—including Claude, Claude Cowork, and Claude Code—to reduce planning, reporting, and coordination overhead and helps teams adopt effective practices. The role is part of the Product Development division, which develops, tests, and improves the company’s software solutions. It is hybrid in Peachtree Corners, Georgia. Team members within commuting distance of the Atlanta or Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky office are expected to work hybrid, with regular office presence determined by the team or department. All team members must reside and work in the United States. The physical activities include frequent sitting, telephone communication, and extended computer use. Visual acuity is required for close work, and team members are expected to maintain a dedicated, ergonomically appropriate remote workspace.
