About The Opportunity
Are you an ex-Developer who loves the "Big Picture" more than the code? Do you know how to leverage AI to work smarter, not harder?
We are a multi-award-winning digital agency in Perth, unlocking opportunities for ambitious brands across Australia and South-East Asia. We are looking for a Technical Product Manager who bridges the gap between complex Enterprise business goals and heavy technical execution.
We need someone who can lead a room of stakeholders, scoping out the "art of the possible," and then sit down to write the detailed technical specifications that ensure our dev team builds it right the first time.
What You Will Do
You will own the Discovery, Definition, and Delivery phases. You are the technical authority in the room.
- Lead Enterprise Engagements: You are the face of the project for our largest clients. You will run discovery workshops, gather requirements, and manage stakeholders who demand high-level strategic insight.
- Architect the Solution: You don’t just take orders; you scope the solution. You will translate client ambiguity into concrete Technical Scopes of Work.
- Write Detailed Specifications: This is a documentation-heavy role. You must be able to write precise Functional Specifications and User Stories that a developer can pick up and build without asking 20 questions.
- AI-Driven Efficiency: You will champion the use of AI tools (e.g., LLMs for drafting specs, data analysis, or Jira automation) to streamline workflows and improve speed-to-market.
- Technical Feasibility: With your developer/coding background, you will sanity-check estimates, catch potential blockers early, and ensure the proposed tech stack (CMS, API integrations, Headless architectures) is fit for purpose.
- End-to-End Delivery: Mana
About You
- The "Dev" DNA: You have a background in software development or a deep understanding of coding principles. You can read API documentation and understand database schemas.
- Documentation Pro: You pride yourself on writing specs that are watertight. You know the difference between a "Business Requirement" and a "Functional Specification."
- Enterprise Presence: You have the polish and confidence to push back on scope creep and guide C-level stakeholders toward the right technical decisions.
- AI Native: You are comfortable using AI tools to assist in generating documentation, summarising meeting insights, or optimising project planning.
- The Toolkit:
-
- Deep experience with Jira & Confluence (or similar)
- Experience with Agile/Scrum in an agency or commercial software environment.
- Ability to create Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERDs) or User Flow charts is a must.
- The "Nice to Haves" (Highly Desirable):
- Agency Experience: You have worked in a Digital Agency before and are comfortable with the pace, billable hours, and juggling multiple clients.
- Our Tech Stack: Experience working with Statamic, Laravel, or Next.js would be a massive advantage, helping you hit the ground running with our dev team.
What's in it for You?
We are a team that values technical excellence and human connection.
- Hybrid Flexibility: Work between our studio and your home setup.
- Career Growth: A clear pathway for technical leaders who want to influence agency strategy.
- Tech-First Environment: We invest in the tools (including AI) you need to do your best work.
- The Essentials: central location (near transport & breweries), and a youthful, passionate team culture.
- Perks: Discounts at Harvey Norman, local gyms, and UberEats.
