Technical Project Manager

Onsetto, Inc•Columbus, OH

1d•$90,000 - $140,000•Onsite

About The Position

Onsetto is building a modern fintech company trusted by banks and financial institutions across the country. We move quickly, but we do not confuse speed with chaos. We believe enduring companies are built by people who take ownership, focus on what matters most, measure outcomes clearly, execute with discipline, and lead with integrity. We are looking for a Technical Project Manager who understands the operating rhythm of large financial institutions and can help Onsetto deliver complex technology initiatives with clarity, structure, and confidence. The Technical Project Manager will lead complex, cross-functional projects that involve Onsetto teams, banking clients, technology partners, compliance stakeholders, operations, product, engineering, and executive leadership. This role is ideal for someone who has worked inside or alongside a large bank and understands how banks think, plan, approve, escalate, document, and execute. We are not looking for a loosely structured startup project coordinator. We are looking for a disciplined project leader who can bring order to complexity without slowing the organization down. You will help create and manage project plans customized to how Onsetto operates, while also speaking the language of enterprise banking stakeholders.
