Location: Remote (United States, Europe, Canada, or LATAM)

Role Type: Full-Time

Reporting to: VP of Engineering

Compensation: $140,000 to $178,000 per year for US-based applicants. Adjusted contingent on location for applicants based in Canada, LATAM, and Europe.

CodePath's educational programs run on our learning platform, a set of applications spanning admissions, course delivery, grading, career coaching, and reporting. A small engineering team builds and maintains all of it. As we build more and serve more learners, we need someone whose job is to keep that work organized, tested, and moving.

We're looking for an Engineering Project Manager who works alongside our engineers day to day. You'll keep projects organized and moving, make sure what we build gets tested and bugs get fixed, and keep the engineers, the product team, and the internal teams who use our tools in sync.

Key Activities

• Keep engineering projects organized and moving: track what's in flight, flag what's blocked, and help the team stay clear on what's next
• Own quality: test what we build, use AI to automate the repetitive parts, and write Capybara tests where they're worth it
• Run the bug pipeline: reproduce issues, prioritize them, route them to the right engineer, and confirm the fix
• Be the day-to-day connection between the engineers, the product team, and the internal teams who use our tools
• Work with us to determine when adding process or rituals might be useful, but being thoughtful about the cost and friction
• Report on status so the team and leadership know where things stand

Qualifications

• 4+ years in a project management, delivery, or QA role, ideally on a small engineering team
• Technical enough to work closely with engineers: you can reproduce a bug, read a stack trace, and write a test case to automate fixing it
• Hands-on QA experience: you've owned testing and a bug pipeline, manual or automated
• Comfort using AI tools to automate work you used to do by hand
• Good judgment about process: you add structure when it helps and leave it out when it doesn't
• Strong written and verbal communication, and you work well with people
• Comfort with ambiguity and small-team dynamics. You've worked without heavy process and know how to keep things moving without it
• Passion for education and desire to make a positive impact

Nice to Haves

• Familiarity with Ruby on Rails or Django codebases, the stacks we run
• Experience with Capybara, RSpec, or comparable testing tools
• Experience working with product managers and non-technical stakeholders
• Experience as the first project manager or QA hire on a team
