• Facilitate agile ceremonies (daily stand-ups, sprint planning, retrospectives), stakeholder meetings, and progress checkpoints to maintain delivery cadence.

• Collaborate with cybersecurity, risk, and compliance teams to ensure projects meet FinTech regulatory requirements (e.g., KYC/AML, PCI DSS, SOC 2).

• Track project milestones, manage documentation, and assist in preparation of executive dashboards and progress reports.

• Support backlog grooming and cross-team alignment across development, QA, DevOps, and product delivery.

• Coordinate vendor activities, including onboarding, contract tracking, service level agreements, and invoice reconciliation.

• Promote adoption of delivery best practices in project governance, Agile delivery, change control, and continuous improvement.

• Ensure traceability across requirements, test cases, and delivery milestones through effective documentation and collaboration tools.

Must-Have Qualifications and Experience:

• Post-secondary education in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, Business Technology Management, or a related field.

• 3–7 years of experience coordinating technical or digital projects, preferably within FinTech, digital banking, or SaaS-based environments.

• Strong working knowledge of project tools such as JIRA, Confluence, SharePoint, MS Project, or equivalents.

• Familiarity with SDLC, Agile, and hybrid delivery models, and experience working directly with developers, QA teams, and infrastructure teams.

• Ability to synthesize complex project details into clear updates, manage competing priorities, and escalate blockers appropriately.

• Strong communication, stakeholder engagement, and technical documentation skills.

Nice To Have:

• Experience with digital payment systems, open banking APIs, cloud architecture (e.g., AWS, Azure), or data platforms.

• PMP, CSM, PMI-ACP, or SAFe certifications.

• Familiarity with regulatory requirements in FinTech such as PCI DSS, SOC 2, or anti-money laundering (AML) frameworks.

• Background in vendor management, third-party system integration, or FinTech compliance reporting.

• Experience supporting digital transformation or customer experience initiatives in a FinTech or banking setting.

Work Environment & Schedule:

• Hybrid schedule: 4-days per week in-office at a Markham FinTech hub.
