Infra Project Manager – IT Automation & Security

Employment Type: Full-time

About The Role

We are seeking a Infra Project Manager with a strong foundation in IT automation, infrastructure, and security. This role is ideal for someone who started their career in a technical track (DevOps, Infra, or Security) and later moved into project/delivery management . The PM will manage complex client-facing projects, coordinate cross-functional teams, and ensure on-time, high-quality delivery while maintaining compliance and governance.

Key Responsibilities

• Project Delivery & Execution
• Lead end-to-end delivery of IT automation and security projects.
• Create project plans, track milestones, and provide regular client and internal reporting.
• Technical Understanding & Oversight
• Review architecture diagrams, logs, and error reports to anticipate issues early.
• Validate technical estimates and ensure realistic timelines with engineering teams.
• Translate client requirements into actionable technical tasks without overloading engineers.
• Client Engagement
• Serve as the single point of contact for clients.
• Explain technical impacts (e.g., infra compatibility, compliance risks) in business-friendly language.
• Manage scope, customizations, and change requests effectively.
• Cross-Functional Coordination
• Align development, QA, DevOps, and infrastructure teams for integrated delivery.
• Balance workloads across frontend, backend, infra, and security tracks.
• Compliance & Governance
• Ensure solutions align with enterprise standards (ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, etc.).
• Track security and compliance requirements, including privileged access and audit trails.
• Process & Risk Management
• Define delivery governance: SLA tracking, dashboards, bug trend analysis.
• Proactively identify risks and implement mitigation strategies.
  

Required Skills & Experience

• 10–12 years of IT experience, with at least 5 years in project/program management.
• Prior hands-on background in DevOps, Infrastructure, or Security (not necessarily current coding, but strong technical grounding).
• Proven success managing projects with multi-technology stacks (Frontend, Backend, Infra, Security).
• Strong understanding of automation frameworks, privileged access/security concepts, and workflow orchestration.
• Experience in client-facing delivery roles, handling escalations and requirement translation.
• Proficiency in Agile/Scrum practices and tools (JIRA, Confluence).
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
