Project manager/Product owner at Shopify experts agency
If you already read about who we are and what we value on our hiring page; then here we want to explain to you what we expect from you in this specific position.
What type of work will you do?
While working with us, you'll see many different types of e-commerce businesses with a variety of needs. Once you get a project handed to you, you must take full responsibility for it and make sure things are moved along and that the team works on it as per the plan. You might have some projects, where you need to manage designers, developers, third-party contributors, and eventually other consultants working directly with the client. So we need you to:
- Make sure we meet deadlines
- Manage projects and clients’ expectations from the beginning to the end
- Guarantee that we uphold our quality standards
- Orchestrate the team’s action
- Be the master of our project management tool - you’ll make sure all tasks are under control and the project stays within budget
- Execute the non-developer work in Shopify
- Test before the handover to the client
We have our processes, but we are always looking more toward progress and productivity than rigid and old schemes and ways of doing things. If you'll have suggestions on how to make things smoother and more efficient, we'll listen to you and give you the freedom to test them.
