Job description
About This Role
At myPlace Health, we use technology to connect care teams with the seniors we serve. As an IT Project Manager reporting to the Project Management Office (PMO), you’ll partner with our Product and Technology team to prioritize new work requests, manage the product backlog, and serve as a Scrum Master guiding agile teams.
You’ll lead and support complex, high-impact projects from conception through delivery — aligning cross-functional teams, managing scope, timelines, and budgets, and ensuring solutions meet regulatory requirements. Most importantly, your work will help deliver the tools that empower our care teams to provide seamless, person-centered care.

- Keep the numbers in focus: Collaborate with IT leadership to provide data that supports budget and capacity planning.
- Empower agile teams: Serve as a Scrum Master to break down complex initiatives into manageable tasks that drive progress.
- Guide collaboration: Facilitate effective scrum ceremonies such as sprint planning, daily stand-ups, backlog refinement, and retrospectives to keep teams aligned and productive.
- Prioritize what matters most: Manage the intake of product requests, work closely with business owners and clinical teams, and ensure timely completion of critical deliverables.
- Adapt with agility: Apply advanced methodologies — Agile, Waterfall, Scrum, or hybrid approaches — to keep projects moving forward smoothly.
- Anticipate challenges: Identify, monitor, and mitigate risks and issues before they become roadblocks.
- Raise the quality bar: Ensure all work meets the highest quality, security, and compliance standards.
- Look back to move forward: Conduct post-implementation reviews that fuel continuous learning and process improvements.
- Build bridges across teams: Act as the go-to liaison among PMO, IT, business units, vendors, and executive sponsors to keep everyone connected and informed.
- Foster trust and transparency: Promote collaboration across departments to remove barriers and drive results.
- Share insights effectively: Communicate progress, challenges, and solutions clearly to executives and stakeholders.
- Inspire future leaders: Mentor junior project managers and nurture a culture of teamwork and innovation.
- Flex as needed: Embrace additional duties as needed to support evolving project priorities and organizational goals.
What Does An Ideal Candidate Look Like?
- Bring your academic foundation: A Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Business Administration, or a related field (Master’s preferred).
- Lead with experience: At least 7 years in IT project management, including 3+ years managing enterprise-level projects that have a meaningful impact.
- Show your credentials: A Project Management Professional (PMP) certification is required to demonstrate your expertise.
- Guide with agility: Scrum Master certification required (or the willingness to obtain one within three months of hire).
- Excel in complex environments: Proven experience leading cross-functional technical teams and managing multi-million-dollar project budgets.
- Harness the right tools: Advanced proficiency with agile and project management platforms like Jira, Confluence, DevOps, Zoom, Smartsheet, and MS Planner.
- Understand the bigger picture: Strong knowledge of systems integration, infrastructure, and enterprise software implementation.
- Communicate with impact: Excellent communication, negotiation, and conflict resolution skills that foster collaboration and trust.
- Thrive in change: Demonstrated ability to navigate ambiguity and lead organizational change in a fast-paced, growth-focused environment.
The Fine Print
- Hybrid & Impactful: This hybrid role is based in Los Angeles, where you’ll support both our Greater Los Angeles and South LA Campuses — playing a key part in driving innovation and supporting the future growth of our organization.
- Balance That Matters: Enjoy a Monday–Friday schedule, designed to support your work-life balance while keeping projects on track.
- Guided by Great Leadership: You’ll report directly to our Senior Director of PMO, gaining the support and mentorship of a leader committed to your success and professional growth.
Physical Requirements:
- Flexible Work Setting: This is primarily an hybrid role with the flexibility to travel as needed to our Greater Los Angeles and South LA Campuses, supporting projects and our organization’s growth.
- Independent Tech Use: You’ll need to comfortably and independently use computers, phones, video conferencing platforms, and other office tools to keep projects moving forward.
- Comfortable Mobility: Ability to move around office spaces, join in-person meetings, and occasionally visit on-site locations as part of project needs.
