Position Overview
We seek a plan-driven Project Manager with proven, hands-on experience delivering agentic AI projects (not just theoretical knowledge). You will lead Agentic AI + MCP initiatives using classical (waterfall) project management—WBS, Gantt, EVM, formal change control—while managing AI engineering teams.
Key Responsibilities
Project Management (Classical)

• Lead end-to-end waterfall/hybrid agentic AI projects from conception to closure.
• Create WBS, Gantt charts (CPM), and specifications (Agent Capability Matrix, MCP Tool Registry).
• Monitor progress via Plan vs. Actual and Earned Value Management (CPI/SPI) .
• Manage agentic AI–specific risks: goal misalignment, token cost blowouts, MCP downtime, unsafe tool calls.
• Implement formal change control for scope/timeline/budget.
• Coordinate internal AI engineers and third-party MCP vendors.
  

Organizational Leadership

• Lead and hold accountable ML engineers, MCP developers, and safety testers.
• Manage team capacity across multiple agent projects.
• Conduct performance evaluations based on delivery and baseline adherence.
  

Process & Meeting Management

• Run milestone reviews, change control boards, and daily stand-ups.
• Maintain task boards, production readiness checklists, and documentation wikis.
  

Requirements
Mandatory: Proven Agentic AI Experience

• Must have delivered at least one agentic AI project in production or pilot (e.g., autonomous customer support agent, multi-agent workflow, tool-using LLM system).
• Must be able to describe in interview: agent architecture (ReAct, planner-executor, etc.), tools used, how you handled non-determinism, safety guardrails implemented, and lessons learned from failures.
• Experience with MCP (Model Context Protocol) is highly preferred but not mandatory—agentic AI without MCP still qualifies.
  

Classical PM Expertise

• 5+ years project management
• Bachelor’s degree in one of the following or related fields: Business Administration, Management, Industrial Engineering, Information Systems, Operations Management, Project Management.
• Expert in WBS, Gantt, CPM, EVM (CPI/SPI), formal change control.
• PMP or PRINCE2 advantageous.
  

Personal Competencies

• Structured thinking, accountability, proactive leadership.
• Excellent documentation and communication.
