Technical Project Manager

Tranzmeo is hiring a Technical Project Manager (Senior) with 10+ years of experience to lead cross-functional engineering programs for its AI + fibre-optic sensing products. This role combines deep technical leadership (candidate must have strong hands-on development experience earlier in their career, preferably with Python and front-end technologies), program management, and domain coordination across product, hardware, cloud, and field operations teams. The right candidate will translate product vision into delivery plans, remove technical blockers, and drive high-quality releases that operate in industrial, mission-critical environments.

Location: Kochi (Infopark) — with periodic travel to field sites and to US office (Houston) as required.

Employment type: Full-time, senior individual contributor / people-lead depending on candidate profile.

Key responsibilities

1. Program leadership & delivery

* Own end-to-end delivery of one or more product modules (e.g., T-Connect OneView features, STS enhancements, uptime monitoring).

* Create and maintain product roadmaps, release plans, milestones, risk logs and cross-team dependency maps.

* Run agile ceremonies, sprint planning, PI planning and retrospectives; ensure predictable cadence.

1. Technical leadership & hands-on involvement

* Leverage your prior development experience (Python + front-end) to review architecture, contribute to design discussions, and make tradeoffs.

* Work with ML/data teams to operationalize models (data pipelines, feature stores, inference latency, model monitoring).

* Coordinate hardware integration efforts (DAS/DTS devices, edge compute).

1. Stakeholder & customer management

* Act as primary technical contact for enterprise customers (oil & gas, utilities), translating customer requirements to engineering backlog.

* Prepare and present technical status and risk updates to senior leadership and customers.

1. Quality, reliability & field readiness

* Define and enforce non-functional requirements: uptime, observability, incident response, and on-field diagnostics.

1. People & process

* Mentor engineering teams, run technical interviews, and help grow the engineering team.

* Improve development processes for faster, safer releases in a hardware-coupled product environment.

Required (must-have) qualifications

* Experience: 10+ years total professional experience, with 5+ years in technical/project leadership roles (program/engineering manager, tech lead, etc.).

* Early development background: Strong hands-on development experience earlier in career — Python required, plus proven front-end experience (React/Angular/TypeScript or similar). You should be comfortable jumping into development discussions.

* Education: B.Tech / B.E. in Computer Science, Information Technology, or equivalent (strict requirement).

* Domain familiarity: Experience with AI/ML product delivery, data engineering, or industrial IoT is strongly preferred

* Systems understanding: Experience with distributed systems, real-time processing, and integrating cloud + edge components (AWS/GCP/Azure).

* Delivery skills: Proven Agile / Scrum delivery track record and ability to run complex cross-functional programs.

* Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication; experience liaising with senior stakeholders and customers.
