Context & Mission

Ledger operates mission-critical crypto services with very high expectations on availability, reliability, and security. As Ledger reviews its full 2026 Infrastructure project portfolio under the RUN Excellence / Infra program, it requires a hands-on Technical Project Manager / Delivery Manager to own delivery of the access management portfolio.

This role closes a coverage gap in Infrastructure project management, ensuring these initiatives are tracked, de-risked, and delivered with the same rigor applied across the rest of the 2026 Infra portfolio.

Role Summary

As Technical Project Manager / Delivery Manager, you will own end-to-end delivery of the access management workstream within Infrastructure, working closely with Engineering Managers, functional Infra managers, and senior leadership to keep plans on track, surface and resolve risks, and ensure cross-team dependencies don't stall progress. This is primarily a project/delivery role (~80% PM / 20% technical) — no development or SRE/on-call work is required, though a working understanding of infrastructure and cybersecurity domains is essential to engage credibly with engineering and infra managers.

Key Responsibilities

1. Access Management Portfolio Delivery (Core Responsibility)

Own delivery and project management for the access-management portfolio within Infrastructure:

• Gandalf platform: Vault, BaaS, and application-level access.
• Okta/SSO rollout across tools.

Build and maintain project plans, track advancement, and follow up on action items in JIRA, the team's core delivery tool.

2. Risk & Dependency Management

• Identify, raise, and manage risks and cross-team dependencies across Engineering, Infrastructure, and functional managers.
• Define pragmatic paths forward when scope is not yet finalized, keeping delivery moving despite ambiguity.

3. Cross-Team Coordination & Communication

• Run and participate in stand-up and project meetings, take meeting notes, and drive follow-through on commitments.
• Act as a communication bridge between engineering managers, functional Infra managers, and senior leadership on scope, priorities, and status.
• Proactively raise issues to the right stakeholders rather than waiting for escalation.

4. Portfolio Coverage & Reporting

• Contribute to closing the coverage gap on Ledger's 2026 Infrastructure project portfolio (project management only — no development or SRE/on-call work).
• Track and report on project advancement in a factual, structured way for leadership visibility.

Exact project scope will be refined over the summer as the client finalizes its 2026 roadmap review, with a confirmed scope expected by early September.

Required Skills & Experience

Experience

• 5–10 years of total experience (~5 years is considered a good baseline; exceptional candidates with less can still be considered).
• Strong project/delivery management track record: managing complexity, tracking cross-team dependencies, raising and managing risks, and keeping plans on track.
• Proven ability to drive delivery without direct authority over the teams involved.

Technical & Domain Knowledge

• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, Datadog, AWS, OVH, and Okta is a plus; onboarding and exposure will be provided if not already established.
• Interest in or knowledge of blockchain/fintech is a plus, though not required — the role stays within the Infra perimeter rather than deep blockchain work.

Tools

• JIRA expertise required — the team's core delivery tool.

Soft Skills

• Proactive, structured communicator, comfortable raising issues to engineering managers, functional managers, and senior leadership.
• Pragmatic, execution-oriented mindset; comfortable operating with partial information and evolving scope.

Collaboration & Travel Requirements

• Onboarding week in Paris (3–5 days) in the first week, ideally once the hiring manager is back from summer leave.
• Roughly monthly visits (1–2 days) to Paris for the first three months, then quarterly thereafter.
• Attendance at in-person Infra team events when possible.
