Technical Project Manager (Stablecoin Infrastructure Build) - FT - EMEA

The project

DevelopX, a digital growth and product consultancy, is building the orchestration engine behind a new stablecoin infrastructure product for a US banking client. Discovery is complete; the 7.5‐month build phase starts now, targeting a pilot go‐live in February 2027. The team is fully distributed — consulting lead in Berlin, developers in Poland, client in the US — so this is a remote‐first role from day one.

Duration: Now through pilot go‐live (~mid‐Feb 2027), with potential to extend

What you’ll own

• Backlog, sprint planning, and delivery cadence for the build
• Risk and issue management; running technical/delivery ceremonies
• Team onboarding and project setup at kickoff
• UAT coordination and management of the gated production pilot
• Coordination across external vendors and partners (payment networks, ledger provider, banking core) on a fixed timeline
• Acceptance testing and progress toward five sequential stage‐gate sign‐offs • Acting as the technical bridge into client conversations alongside the Project & Product Lead

What you’ll bring

• 5+ years running technical delivery for software builds — ideally with fintech, payments, or bank‐ ing exposure
• Fluency in agile delivery, backlog tools, and scope/risk management
• Comfort coordinating multiple external vendors against a hard deadline
• Confidence running technical discussions directly with the client
• Fluent English and significant working‐hours overlap with Central European Time

Nice to have: exposure to stablecoins, blockchain, or payment rails; experience in a regulated bank‐ ing environment.
