Viget is hiring a
Digital Project Manager

Summary

The job is for a Digital Project Manager at Viget, an independent digital agency. The role involves leading projects, facilitating product design sprints, defining and prioritizing requirements, collaborating with designers and developers, supporting user research and testing, leading quality assurance, and celebrating project launches.

Requirements

• You’re a polished and persuasive communicator (without BS-ing)
• You consistently listen, synthesize, write, and speak better than most people
• You get made fun of by your friends because you’re “too” organized (as if THAT’S possible)
• You meet deadlines across multiple, simultaneous projects
• You build long-term relationships with clients based on thorough planning, timely and professional communication, and intelligent problem-solving
• You’re solution-oriented. You don’t just identify problems, you synthesize solutions
• You’re comfortable closely managing project budgets
• You have a 'thick skin' when the going gets tough. If and when conflicting demands emerge, you communicate diplomatically to reach a resolution
• You demonstrate integrity through your words and actions
• You love processes and plans, but you’re flexible. You can create an effective project plan and timeline, but are comfortable enough with ambiguity to adapt the plan when things change
• You have worked in a fast-paced software development environment before, whether at an agency or product company
• You know how the web works and how a web app works, which means you’re aware of technical constraints when talking to clients
• You can break down a set of wireframes into actionable tasks for back-end and front-end developers
• You can shepherd often-vague client requests and ideas through the definition process
• You’re able to describe workflows and tasks purely from an end user’s perspective, helping developers make informed implementation decisions
• You’ve performed QA. You can distinguish a bug from a functional update from a new feature request. You don’t write merely good bug reports. You write better bug reports -- or, at least, that’s your goal each and every time

Responsibilities

• Lead a variety of projects, including software development efforts
• Facilitate product design sprints
• Define and prioritize requirements
• Collaborate with our brilliant designers and developers to design and build products
• Support user research and testing
• Lead quality assurance
• Celebrate thrilling launches

Benefits

• Annual base salary of $65,000 - $95,000 (mid level) or $85,000 - $115,000 (senior) per year depending on location, skills, and experience
• Additional comp available via spot performance bonuses, sales referrals, and new hire referrals
• 401(k) retirement plan matching up to 4%
• 100% company-paid health and dental coverage for you and your family
• Stipends for wellness (apps, gyms, etc.) and connectivity (mobile phone or home internet)
• 15 days PTO (20 after 2 years), 9 paid holidays, and 2 community service days per year
• Up to $2,000/year in conference and training (professional development) budget
