About the Job

Requirements

  • At least five years of project or program management experience in an e-commerce catalog, back-office, large-scale operations, intake, or PMO organization.
  • Experience with quantitative effort estimation and resource planning, including capacity planning, full-time-equivalent modeling, and service-level agreement management.
  • Ability to query backend databases directly using SQL and make data-driven decisions and prioritization judgments.
  • Ability to communicate asynchronously and control issues using guardrails in online tools such as Jira, Confluence, and Slack, rather than relying solely on face-to-face communication or persuasion.
  • Experience challenging unreasonable requests using data and coaching junior project managers to become independent owners.
  • Business English communication skills sufficient to collaborate with global leaders and overseas development teams; an English interview is required.

Responsibilities

  • Consolidate and manage intake of strategic requirements, quantitatively analyze complex business requests for the catalog and product operations organization, and establish a systematized intake process based on guardrails and online workflows.
  • Estimate effort and prioritize requests using worker counts, timelines, full-time-equivalent modeling, and business impact; schedule resources quantitatively and manage service-level agreements and throughput.
  • Lead cross-functional projects in online and remote collaboration environments, establish roles and responsibilities, persuade stakeholders, and resolve risks.
  • Systematize and preserve repetitive manual operating procedures to reduce defect rates and maximize operational efficiency across the team.
  • Guide work structuring, provide practical mentoring, and coach junior project managers in independent decision-making so they can grow into autonomous project owners.

Desired Qualifications

  • Deep understanding of e-commerce catalogs, marketplaces, product-data pipelines, or backend and operations domains.
  • Demonstrated improvement in team throughput or reduction in defects by standardizing high-volume operational requests through systems or automation.
  • Experience designing and building team-level intake and service-level agreement workflow standards using Jira Automation, Confluence, or Asana.
  • PMP or SQLD certification, or experience in global platform PMO.
