About the Opportunity:
Our client, a leader in Social Media and Digital Advertising, is looking for a skilled Technical Project Manager
to join their team for a contract engagement through the end of the year, with a strong possibility of extension. This project involves driving significant cost savings around EC2 (Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud) infrastructure, with a core focus on closely tracking spend across projects for a key product monetization team. This is a high-impact role that requires a self-motivated professional who can hit the ground running and deliver results quickly.

- Closely tracking and managing infrastructure spend across multiple projects for the Monetization team.

- 5+ years of experience as a Technical Project Manager in a similar role.
- Deep expertise in core technical project management principles, with an understanding of data analytics. This isn't a learning role—you need to be a subject matter expert.
- Experience with infrastructure spend and a strong technical background, including some understanding of advertising and system operations.
- Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and manage your own time effectively to meet project goals.
- Excellent and clear communication skills, with demonstrated ability to develop trust with cross-functional and diverse stakeholders.
