Together, we are changing the world’s relationship with financial services. At Kunai, we help our clients modernize, capitalize on emerging trends, and evolve their business for the coming decades by remaining tech-agnostic and human-centered.
You'll own a workstream inside a larger, mid-stream program, picking up a system that already has an MVP in flight and driving it through rollout and V2 definition.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Own the day-to-day management of a workstream within the broader program
Coordinate across teams to keep the MVP rollout on track and moving toward production
Drive definition and scoping for V2, working with stakeholders to nail down requirements
Apply tactical analysis to understand the technical details of the work, not just the schedule
Track progress, dependencies, and timelines for a workstream operating inside a larger program
Surface risks and blockers early and work with technical leads to resolve them
Keep stakeholders aligned on status, decisions, and tradeoffs throughout rollout and V2 planning
Report progress clearly to program leadership and the client
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
5+ years experience managing a workstream or project within a larger, multi-team program
Background in financial services, with exposure to payments, credit, debit, or ACH systems
Background in software engineering, tactical or technical analysis
Comfort working in environments where an MVP is live and the focus is shifting to rollout and next-phase definition
Experience scaling a team, including planning for and onboarding new engineers
Familiarity with AWS
Strong stakeholder management skills, including the ability to translate technical detail for non-technical audiences
A clear communicator who can coordinate across technical and business teams without losing precision
