Job description
We are hiring a Senior Project Manager to own delivery execution across our client’s Canadian engagements. You will sit between their customers and their Brazil based engineering team, and you will make sure every engagement reaches production on time, within scope, and within budget. In a fixed fee model, scope discipline is the job.
This is a high ownership role in a small company.
Requirements
Manage multiple projects from kickoff to handoff with minimal supervision
Build project plans covering scope, milestones, resources, and budget, aligned to SOW deliverables
Protect fixed fee scope: identify changes early, negotiate discrepancies with customers, and drive prioritization decisions
Coordinate delivery across time zones between customers and their engineering team in Brazil and Canada
Own project governance, including status reporting, sprint reviews, and risk and issue management. Know the difference between a risk and an issue, and when to escalate
Facilitate backlog creation with clear definitions, acceptance criteria, and estimates, and manage work in Jira
Track milestones and documentation for AWS funded engagements
Build customer trust through reliable delivery and consistent communication, including the difficult conversations
Deliver against the customer’s business outcome, not just the letter of the SOW, and bring follow on opportunities to the commercial team
Help build the client’s delivery practice: templates, processes, and how they use AI in project management
What You Bring
+5 years of professional experience working with North American customers, including at least 3 in a client facing Project Manager role
+2 years in a consulting or professional services environment
Experience delivering cloud, data, or AI projects. AWS experience strongly preferred
Experience managing distributed teams across time zones

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for OpsBrasil Serviços Cloud LTDA. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
