Who We Are

Shae Group delivers AI-led digital products spanning health, wellbeing, education, and enterprise optimization. Our teams move quickly and measure success through outcomes, not effort. We rely on project leaders who can manage timelines, clarify requirements, and coordinate cross-functional teams to deliver production-ready solutions at speed.

What you'll experience at Shae Group
  • Real ownership — You'll shape features from discovery to delivery, not just gather requirements.
  • Deep impact — You won't just support the roadmap; you'll help design it.
  • High-growth environment — We're scaling quickly, and this role grows with us.
  • End-to-end exposure — Business analysis, product strategy, delivery leadership, stakeholder alignment, user insight — all in one role.

A mission that matters — Shae Group is building technology that helps organisations scale intentionally, transparently, and human-first. We care about clarity, empowerment, and creating tools that let teams work smarter together.

Who You Are

You are a Technical Project Manager who is equally strong in business analysis. You can convert high-level goals into actionable requirements, keep delivery on track, and guide teams through structured governance. You manage daily execution, communicate clearly, and produce documentation that reduces ambiguity and accelerates engineering throughput.

Responsibilities


• Oversee project execution end-to-end: scoping, planning, scheduling, budgeting, RAID oversight, standups, and reporting.

• Act as the primary business analyst: capture needs, translate them into user stories/epics, define acceptance criteria, map processes, and identify operational gaps.

• Lead readiness efforts: coordinate UAT cycles, manage testing, prepare cutover plans, and track KPIs/OKRs.

• Formalize operational frameworks: build RACIs, define change control paths, maintain privacy and risk documentation, and organize the delivery knowledge base.

• Create automations, dashboards, and workflow enhancements to optimize decision-making and reduce manual PM overhead.

Requirements

Must-have qualifications


• 5–8+ years TPM/PM background with demonstrated BA experience and shipped AI/cloud product features.

• Expertise with modern PM tools (Jira/Linear, ClickUp, Notion, Google Sheets) and strong technical documentation capability.

• Proven success running end-to-end UAT, coordinating go-live cutovers, and managing operational readiness.

Nice-to-have


• Previous experience in clinical/health environments or regulated data ecosystems.

• Familiarity with automated KPI dashboards or AI tools supporting PM workflows.

Benefits

Compensation & performance bonuses

Base fee: USD $1,000 - $1,500 / MONTH
Performance incentives: Annual bonus for KPI over-performance

Payment & contractor terms

Independent Contractor status only. Payment via bank direct deposit. Invoicing monthly. 

How to apply

You will complete a self-initiated 16mins Ai-video Interview as well as personality profile survey result. Please provide:

• A one-page delivery approach document

• A requirements/specification sample you personally authored (with acceptance criteria)

Shortlisted candidates will participate in a short, scenario-based delivery discussion.

Closing note

We hire TPMs who can both lead delivery and produce crystal-clear requirements that reduce rework and accelerate launches.
