About the role

The Staff Project Manager is a senior individual contributor within OpenGov's Professional Services Strategic Projects team, responsible for owning delivery on specific multi-suite, high-complexity government implementations. This role sits above the Lead/Sr. PM tier and below Principal PM: the Staff PM defines and oversees implementation strategy for the projects assigned to them, without holding people-management authority and without the org-wide, cross-portfolio strategy mandate carried by the Principal PM.

What they're looking for

  • 5–7 years of progressive program and project management experience in a SaaS environment, including ownership of at least one enterprise-scale, multi-product implementation
  • Demonstrated experience coordinating across implementation, product, engineering, and sales functions without direct authority over those teams
  • Experience with complex governmental clients or equivalent regulated/public-sector environments, understanding of procurement constraints and multi-department governance is strongly preferred
  • Prior experience supporting SOW language, change-order rationale, or commercial framing in partnership with sales or PS leadership
  • Willingness to travel to client sites for discovery, steering committee meetings, go-live support, and executive relationship management
  • Bachelor's degree preferred or commensurate experience demonstrating the ability to perform the responsibilities above
