Fueled is a leading digital strategy, design, and engineering agency. We are a 300+ person team that has designed and built hundreds of digital products and experiences for brands like Google, Apple, The New York Times, ESPN, Victoria’s Secret, MGM Resorts, Albertsons, and CLEAR.

As a Senior Project Manager at Fueled, you are not just a task manager, but a strategic contributor to every project, and the driver for successful client delivery. You’ll have ownership and input on a combination of innovative, challenging projects and ongoing support engagements. We believe in balanced and diverse workloads through dedicated resource management, and we have a supportive Client Delivery structure with established Project Management processes that allow for autonomy.

Intentionally remote and globally distributed across six continents, our team thrives in a culture that values flexibility, creativity, and cutting-edge technology. Together, we’re shaping the future of digital experiences.

What you will do:
  • Lead ongoing CMS product development—including plugins, extensions, integrations, and application features—by managing a clear product roadmap and guiding cross-functional teams from discovery through release and iteration.
  • Act as the primary client partner, ensuring clear communication, aligned priorities, and a smooth decision-making process while managing scope and expectations.
  • Oversee delivery operations and financial performance, including project planning, resourcing, budget tracking, forecasting, and proactive risk mitigation.
  • Ensure high-quality delivery by partnering with technical leadership, enforcing rigorous QA practices, identifying technical and architectural risks early, and championing continuous improvement.
  • Drive team effectiveness by facilitating Agile ceremonies, removing blockers, and fostering close collaboration across disciplines.
What you will achieve:
  • Align roadmap priorities with client goals, collaborating with the Product Manager to balance user needs, business value, and technical considerations.
  • Strengthen cross-functional cohesion, ensuring designers, engineers, and strategists work efficiently together across the entire product lifecycle.
  • Help expand the partnership, working with Commercial, Product, and Growth teams to shape new scopes and identify opportunities for future work.
  • Improve delivery predictability and efficiency, introducing process refinements that reduce friction and enhance execution across teams.
  • Keep clients ahead of industry shifts by applying knowledge of CMS platforms, digital products, and emerging technologies—including AI—to guide forward-looking solutions.
About you:
  • You have strong experience delivering complex, enterprise-scale CMS products, including ongoing product development of plugins, extensions, and platform features—ideally within an agency environment and with practical knowledge of WordPress.
  • You’re fluent in both delivery and commercial strategy, comfortable discussing scope, budgets, technical approaches, and value creation with stakeholders at every level.
  • You bring structure to ambiguity, quickly identifying risks and making informed decisions that keep work moving toward meaningful outcomes.
  • You lead cross-functional teams with clarity and confidence, guiding creative, engineering, and client partners through fast-paced delivery (Agile certification preferred).
  • You care deeply about impact, focusing not just on timelines and budgets, but on delivering exceptional work that drives real business and customer value.
