Why This Role Matters
At vSplash, we're building the future of digital presence management — powered by AI, automation, and innovation. Our R&D team is where ideas evolve into products, experiments scale into platforms, and technology drives meaningful impact.
As a Project Manager – R&D, you'll play a central role in shaping that future. You'll manage multiple experimental and cross-functional projects, bridging the gap between concept and delivery. From automation workflows to AI-driven features, you'll ensure every initiative runs with clarity, precision, and measurable outcomes.
This is not traditional project management — it's innovation orchestration. You'll combine structure with creativity, data with design thinking, and process discipline with experimentation.

What You'll Do
  • Lead end-to-end delivery of R&D projects — from ideation and prioritization to testing, iteration, and rollout.
  • Define goals, milestones, and measurable success metrics for every initiative.
  • Partner with Engineering, Design, Product, and Automation teams to translate concepts into structured execution plans.
  • Manage sprint boards, timelines, and documentation for multiple concurrent projects.
  • Identify dependencies, risks, and blockers early — and build proactive mitigation paths.
  • Track progress and outcomes using dashboards, translating technical results into business impact insights.
  • Capture and document learnings, experiments, and ROI for continuous improvement of R&D operations.
  • Communicate effectively with stakeholders and leadership through clear, data-driven storytelling.
Who You Are
  • Technically curious and operationally disciplined — you can navigate ambiguity with structure.
  • A systems thinker who connects technology, people, and process to deliver results.
  • Comfortable leading experiments where scope evolves and outcomes are not yet certain.
  • A collaborative influencer who balances creativity with accountability.
  • Motivated by innovation, data, and tangible business impact.
Skills & Experience to Have
Must-Have:
  • 8+ years of experience in Project Management within product, engineering, or automation-focused teams.
  • Understanding of AI concepts, AI tools, automation tools, and modern software lifecycles.
  • Strong skills in project documentation, reporting, and stakeholder management.
  • Experience with SQL, Looker Studio, or other data visualization/reporting tools.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple experimental projects in parallel.
Nice-to-Have:
  • PMP or Scrum certification.
  • Experience working with AI-native or automation-first teams.
  • Familiarity with API-driven automation workflows and MVP-style experimentation.
  • Understanding of ML concepts, Large Language Models (LLMs), and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) workflows.
  • Experience collaborating with design, engineering, and AI research teams.
Why Join vSplash R&D
  • Lead innovation at the intersection of AI, automation, and product design.
  • Drive projects that shape how thousands of businesses operate globally.
  • Work in an environment that values curiosity, craftsmanship, and creativity.
  • Enjoy autonomy, experimentation freedom, and the satisfaction of turning bold ideas into real impact.
** Please note that this is a Work from Office role.
