Job Description ThreatConnect is looking for a Senior Project Manager to join the Engineering Team. You will be hands-on and knee-deep in product details and requirements. As Senior Project Manager, you’ll challenge yourself to innovate and strategize efficiencies and build relationships to achieve results. As a new member of our dynamic team, you will have a rare and rewarding opportunity to impact change in the growing Cybersecurity field. About You: You are a great communicator. You are comfortable speaking with stakeholders with a variety of backgrounds: Engineers, Product Managers, and Technical Writers alike. You are detail-oriented. You’re the kind of person who won’t just close a tab and say, “that’s probably close enough.” You naturally try to optimize solutions to problems in your life. You enjoy bringing people together. The team is comprised of individuals with various personalities, different backgrounds, approaches, and different ways of thinking. You should strive to help others celebrate their differences and get everyone working towards a common goal. You like seeing things get done the right way. A “process” isn’t just a set of checklists and Gantt charts you follow. A by-the-book methodology isn’t a path to success, and you’re able to own and create new ways of working to ensure the entire team feels like the job has been an overall success.
