Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. CodePath is the largest educator of college computer science students in the country, seeking an Engineering Project Manager to oversee and streamline engineering projects. The role involves ensuring quality, managing bug pipelines, and facilitating communication between engineers and internal teams.
Responsibilities
- Keep engineering projects organized and moving: track what's in flight, flag what's blocked, and help the team stay clear on what's next
- Own quality: test what we build, use AI to automate the repetitive parts, and write Capybara tests where they're worth it
- Run the bug pipeline: reproduce issues, prioritize them, route them to the right engineer, and confirm the fix
- Be the day-to-day connection between the engineers, the product team, and the internal teams who use our tools
- Work with us to determine when adding process or rituals might be useful, but being thoughtful about the cost and friction
- Report on status so the team and leadership know where things stand
Skills
- 4+ years in a project management, delivery, or QA role, ideally on a small engineering team
- Technical enough to work closely with engineers: you can reproduce a bug, read a stack trace, and write a test case to automate fixing it
- Hands-on QA experience: you've owned testing and a bug pipeline, manual or automated
- Comfort using AI tools to automate work you used to do by hand
- Good judgment about process: you add structure when it helps and leave it out when it doesn't
- Strong written and verbal communication, and you work well with people
- Comfort with ambiguity and small-team dynamics. You've worked without heavy process and know how to keep things moving without it
- Passion for education and desire to make a positive impact
- Familiarity with Ruby on Rails or Django codebases, the stacks we run
- Experience with Capybara, RSpec, or comparable testing tools
- Experience working with product managers and non-technical stakeholders
- Experience as the first project manager or QA hire on a team
