Senior Project Manager, NYMBUS

• The right person for this role is a delivery leader who is also a builder. You’re not satisfied with maintaining a project plan — you’re asking how to make that plan generate itself. You use Kiro, Claude, and other AI tools daily, not occasionally. And when you see a process that still relies on manual coordination, your instinct is to eliminate it
• 5+ years of project management experience in financial technology, banking, or a complex enterprise software delivery environment
• Demonstrated experience owning large, multi-stakeholder implementation programs end-to-end — not supporting them
• Experience with core banking conversions, digital banking launches, or multi-vendor integration programs strongly preferred
• Active, hands-on use of AI tools in your daily work — you can describe specifically what you have built or automated, not just that you “use AI.”
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills — you write status updates that executives actually read, and you run meetings that end with decisions
• Ability to manage ambiguity without losing momentum. You define the path when there isn’t one
• Experience working directly with clients at senior levels under high-stakes conditions
• Delivery and Technical:
• End-to-end implementation ownership
• Risk identification and RAID management
• AI tool fluency and daily adoption
• Workflow automation and process design
• Cross-functional coordination
• Data-driven delivery decision making
• Agile and hybrid delivery methodologies
• Behavioral and Leadership:
• Proactive risk escalation
• Client relationship leadership
• Executive-level communication
• Ownership and accountability
• High output under ambiguity
• Continuous improvement mindset
• Systems thinking at the project level

Desirable

• This is not a traditional Project Manager role
• Nymbus is mid-transformation through Project Firehorse, a company-wide initiative to make our delivery organization AI-native. Senior Project Managers at Nymbus are expected to be at the front of that change, not waiting for it to arrive
• You will manage complex, high-stakes implementations while simultaneously helping to build the AI-powered workflows, automation, and tooling that make the next generation of delivery faster and more reliable
• Own end-to-end delivery across multiple concurrent, complex implementations — core conversions, digital banking launches, and multi-vendor integration programs
• Manage scope, schedule, budget, risk, and stakeholder alignment without waiting for direction. You are the decision-maker in your projects
• Build and maintain RAID logs, project charters, go-live readiness assessments, and executive status reporting that are genuinely useful — not compliance artifacts
• Lead client-facing delivery conversations at all levels, from working sessions with technical teams to executive steering committees
• Escalate risks early and with a recommended path forward — not just a flag
• Partner with account management to protect client relationships during delivery complexity
• Use AI tools (Kiro, Claude, and others) as active parts of your daily workflow — for generating implementation plans, drafting client communications, analyzing project data, diagnosing issues, and producing status artifacts
• Participate actively in Project Firehorse: share what’s working, contribute to shared tooling and playbooks, and help the team move from manual coordination to automated delivery
• Identify manual, repetitive tasks in your own workflows and find ways to eliminate or automate them. Document and share what you build
• Contribute to the development of AI-assisted RAID logs, predictive go-live risk scoring, and automated deployment readiness frameworks
• Use Kiro and MCP integrations (Jira, Confluence, GitLab) to accelerate issue diagnosis, release tracking, and cross-team coordination
• Maintain and improve PMO standards, templates, and delivery procedures — with an eye toward what can be automated rather than just documented
• Instrument your projects to generate useful data signals: what predicts go-live risk, where implementations stall, and what clients consistently struggle with
• Build implementation playbooks from your delivery experience that can be reused, refined, and eventually AI-generated
• Partner with the Director, Delivery Program Manager to evolve the delivery operating model as Firehorse matures
• In 90 days:
• You have taken full ownership of your assigned implementations and stakeholders know exactly who you are
• You are using Kiro and AI tools daily and have shared at least one meaningful win with the team
• You have identified at least one process in your workflow you are actively working to automate
• Your status reports are clean, honest, and require no editing before reaching leadership
• At Full Velocity:
• Your implementations run with less manual coordination than when you inherited them
• Clients describe you as the most organized, proactive PM they’ve worked with
• You have contributed meaningfully to Firehorse playbooks, tooling, or automation that others now use
• You are escalating risks earlier and with better-framed options than the prior standard
