Technical Project Manager - Project Success

Who We Are

Every organization runs on intelligence: years of accumulated knowledge, decisions, and context. As AI takes on more of that work, companies face a choice: rent that intelligence from vendors who keep the data, the context, and the results, or own it.

OpenTeams exists to make ownership possible.

Founded by Travis Oliphant, creator of NumPy and SciPy, and built by people with deep roots across the open-source ecosystem, including NumPy, SciPy, PyTorch, and Jupyter, we help enterprises and governments build AI they control, govern, and evolve themselves.

If that sounds like your kind of work, we'd like to meet you.

Technical Project Manager - Project Success

Location: Remote - U.S Work Authorization: Authorized to work in the U.S. without current or future sponsorship Salary Range: $120,000 - $150,000 USD (dependent on experience and location)

About the Role

We’re seeking a Technical Project Manager to join our Project Success team and help clients build, secure, and operate AI infrastructure they own.

Our engagements range from implementing AI platforms within a client’s environment and building knowledge and retrieval applications over sensitive data to securing open-source AI systems, facilitating AI discovery with leadership teams, and serving as an embedded technical partner.

This is not a traditional project management or coordination-only role. It is a technical collaboration role. You’ll work alongside OpenTeams engineers, client stakeholders, and account leaders to understand design-level concepts, capture requirements and decisions, and keep technical execution aligned with client needs.

Key Responsibilities

• Collaborate with engineers, clients, and account leaders to understand technical objectives and proactively address project needs

• Participate in technical discussions and capture requirements, decisions, dependencies, risks, and tradeoffs across infrastructure, data, security, and AI/ML

• Help clients clarify where their data resides, who owns it, how it can be accessed, and which business processes AI should support

• Track constraints involving data sovereignty, on-premises infrastructure, air-gapped deployment, security, compliance, and procurement

• Maintain shared visibility into project plans, priorities, decisions, deliverables, dependencies, and status

• Build trusted relationships with client stakeholders across technical, operational, and leadership teams

• Ensure technical deliverables remain aligned with client requirements and business objectives

• Identify risks, challenges, and unresolved decisions early and help drive them toward resolution

• Support transitions from implementation to operation, including documentation, handoffs, and ongoing support arrangements

• Partner with account leaders to identify opportunities for expansion, renewal, or deeper client collaboration

• Share best practices, lessons learned, and reusable approaches across the Project Success team

Required Skills & Experience

• Experience partnering with engineering teams in technical, customer-facing environments (project/program management, consulting, delivery leadership, etc.)

• Ability to participate in design-level technical conversations and accurately capture requirements, decisions, dependencies, risks, and tradeoffs

• Fluency with developer tooling: comfortable reading pull requests, writing scripts, and using AI coding assistants (Python and SQL a plus)

• Technical breadth across several areas, with depth in at least one:

  • Cloud/on-premises infrastructure (containers, orchestration, networking, GPU compute)

  • Data engineering, pipelines, enterprise integrations

  • AI/ML systems

  • Software security, dependency management, vulnerability remediation

  • Application delivery, DevOps, or platform operations

• Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to engineering, business, and executive audiences

• Experience coordinating work across technical teams, client stakeholders, and account teams

• Experience identifying and tracking technical risks, dependencies, constraints, and success criteria

• Comfort working within enterprise constraints (security reviews, restricted environments, procurement, regulatory requirements)

• Strong written communication, organization, and documentation skills

• Curiosity, adaptability, and ability to learn unfamiliar technical concepts quickly

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, computer science, physics, mathematics, or related discipline

Nice to Have

• Experience supporting Fortune 50 or other large enterprise clients

• Experience in financial services or other highly regulated industries

• Experience guiding projects from discovery through operational handoff and support

• Consulting or professional-services background
