Summary

Commerce is disrupting the e-commerce industry as the SaaS leader for fast-growing, mid-market businesses. We empower customers to create intuitive, engaging stores that support every stage of growth.

As a Technical Project Manager, you will drive the execution of complex, cross-functional technology projects for our merchants, partners, and internal teams. You will be responsible for delivering eCommerce implementations, integrations, and platform migrations within defined scope, timeline, and budget.

This role is ideal for a project manager who thrives in execution—owning delivery, managing risk, and building strong client relationships while developing deeper technical and strategic expertise.

What You’ll Do

• Lead Client Implementations: Follow established delivery frameworks to deliver project plans and business requirement documents, gather requirements, and lead clients to successful launches within budget, scope and timeframe. 

• Enablement: Ensure agencies and merchants have the tools, resources, and guidance needed to succeed. Share best practices and recommendations with external stakeholders to help them meet project goals and timelines.

• Relationship Management: Act as the primary point of contact during technical implementation, providing expertise and support to agencies, merchants, and internal teams.

• Executive Communication: Support client stakeholders, including senior leaders, by providing updates on critical milestones and  informing about project risks. 

• Collaboration:Collaborate cross-functionally with internal and external teams to ensure alignment on technical requirements and overall project readiness. 

• Advocate for Clients: Overcome client obstacles by facilitating communication and advocacy with internal stakeholders.

• Project Management: Manage daily activities of scope management, project and resource planning, progress tracking, proactive risk and issue management, and cross-functional/stakeholder and leadership communication. Track and report on project progress, ensuring alignment with expectations and addressing escalations as needed. Identify and escalate risk appropriately. 

• Manage Accounts: Handle mid-market implementations with defined scope and complexity.

• Technical Evaluations: Can read and interpret API documentation, understand e-commerce integrations well enough to ask the right questions and flag risks during client discovery.
