Project Manager (Software Engineering) - Temp

Are you ready to steer a high-stakes initiative that replaces third-party dependencies with pure engineering power within a leading e-commerce marketplace? 

Our client in Utrecht is moving away from a SaaS-based advertising model to a custom, in-house developed platform. We aren't looking for a "SaaS implementer"; we need a heavy-hitting PM who understands the nuts and bolts of Engineering projects to bring this vision to life. With a high-level plan in place, we now need a leader who can unify teams, stabilize the change process, and hit an ambitious Q3 deadline.

If you're available to start immediately and ready to make your mark, apply now and help build the next generation of advertising!

This project is about more than just a timeline; it’s about technical transition. You will lead the shift to an internal ecosystem built on JVM/Kotlin and GCP. We need a PM who doesn't just watch from the sidelines but gets the right engineers in the room to dismantle roadblocks and solve complex integration issues in real-time.

What are you going to do? 

• Lead end-to-end management of a custom engineering build, moving beyond simple configurations to deep backend development milestones.
• Embrace the fluidity of a "build vs. buy" transition. You’ll act as the steady hand, bringing stability to the teams as they navigate evolving requirements.
• Facilitate "The Room": You are responsible for bringing engineers and product teams together. You’ll lead the sessions where problems are actually solved, ensuring technical dependencies are cleared instantly.
• Coordinate roadmaps across multiple agile teams, ensuring that Kotlin-based services and GCP infrastructure goals are met.
• Identify cross-team bottlenecks before they stall the Q3 deadline, bridging the gap between executive expectations and engineering reality.
