About the Role
We are looking for a Technical Project Manager with 10–14 years of experience to lead end-to-end delivery of application and data platform projects.

This is a full-time, work-from-office role based in Noida.
Key Responsibilities
Project Management & Delivery
- Own end-to-end delivery of application and data projects – planning, estimation, scheduling, resourcing, budgeting, risk management, and stakeholder communication.
- Lead and mentor cross-functional teams of Java developers, data engineers, BI analysts, and QA across multiple workstreams.
- Drive Agile/Scrum ceremonies – sprint planning, daily stand-ups, reviews, retrospectives – and ensure on-time, on-budget, quality delivery.
- Manage client and senior management relationships; provide regular status reporting, escalation management, and governance reviews.

Technical Leadership
- Guide solution design for Java / Spring Boot based applications, microservices, and REST APIs that integrate with the data platform.
- Conduct technical design and code reviews; enforce engineering best practices, coding standards, and API/integration design guidelines.
- Provide technical direction on data platform components – databases, ETL/ELT pipelines, data warehouses/lakehouses, and BI/reporting layers.
- Review architecture decisions, non-functional requirements (performance, security, scalability, availability), and ensure compliance with enterprise standards.
- Evaluate technologies and tools, and support effort estimation, technical proposals, and RFP responses.
- Support pre-sales activities – solutioning, client presentations, PoCs, and technical due diligence.
- Act as the technical escalation point for delivery teams; help unblock complex design and implementation challenges.
Technical Skills Required
- Java / Spring Boot (Mandatory): Strong knowledge of Core Java, Spring Boot, Spring Framework (Spring Data, Spring Security), microservices architecture, and RESTful API design and development.
- Experience with application integration patterns, messaging (Kafka/RabbitMQ), API gateways, and performance tuning of Java applications.
- Good understanding of modern data platforms – data warehouses, data lakes, and lakehouse architectures.

- Exposure to at least one major cloud platform – GCP, AWS, or Azure – and its application/data services.
- Familiarity with big data and lakehouse technologies – Spark, Kafka, Apache Iceberg/Delta Lake, Dremio, MinIO/S3 object storage – is a plus.
- Working knowledge of DevOps practices – Git, CI/CD pipelines, Docker/Kubernetes, Terraform.
