Technical Project Manager, Delivery, QA & Automation

Remote (UK based) | Full time | Reports to the CTO

The opportunity

Our client is a fast growing hospitality and venue technology company. It builds cloud software that runs real venues and connects to hardware out in the field. They need a Technical Project Manager who has written and shipped code and now wants to run delivery across a small, fast moving product team. This is a doing role, not a reporting role. You own what’s in flight, what’s blocked, what ships next and whether it works.

What you’ll be doing

• Owning the delivery plan end to end across an internal operations platform and a customer facing booking, availability and pricing app
• Running the day to day workload across developers, designers and external integration partners
• Leading QA: writing test plans, reproducing and documenting defects, and tracking fixes through to verified closure
• Building automation that removes manual work, such as CI checks, test harnesses, release scripts, status reporting and alerting
• Reading pull requests and specs closely enough to challenge scope, estimates and edge cases
• Running stand ups, sprint reviews and release readiness checks, and keeping trackers, runbooks and the decision log current

What we’re looking for

• 3+ years delivering software projects, plus real development experience. You have shipped production code yourself
• Fluency in a scripting language such as Python or TypeScript, and comfort with Git, the command line and CI pipelines
• Proven QA ownership: test planning, structured bug reporting, regression discipline and release sign off
• A track record delivering cloud or SaaS products, ideally multi tenant web apps that customers use every day
• Practical Agile experience, using Scrum or Kanban as a tool rather than a rulebook
• Strong with ClickUp, Notion, Linear, Jira or similar, and willing to set them up properly
• Based in the UK with the right to work, and able to travel occasionally for team sessions and venue visits

Bonus points if you have

• Built internal tooling: API integrations, webhooks, scheduled jobs or LLM assisted workflows
• Worked with AWS or GCP and observability tooling
• Exposure to booking, scheduling, pricing or payment systems, or products connected to devices in the field
• A background in hospitality, gaming or venue technology

What success looks like

• 30 days: you know every workstream, its owner and its true status, and the tracker reflects reality
• 60 days: releases follow a repeatable QA and sign off process, and fewer defects reach production
• 90 days: at least two recurring manual processes are automated, and the CTO no longer chases status

What’s on offer

• Remote working from the UK, with occasional travel
• Direct line to the CTO
