Hire a Dedicated Technical Project Manager
A good project manager is the difference between a team that ships and a team that drifts. Our PMs are technically literate — they understand development complexity, can push back on scope creep with data, and communicate status to both engineers and C-suite without needing a translator. They run Agile sprints, manage the backlog, write clear requirements, coordinate between design, development, and QA, and flag risk before it becomes delay. They operate as an embedded member of your team, adapting to your tools and communication style.

Common questions
Everything you need to know before hiring a dedicated Technical Project Manager.
You hire a specific person — not a rotating pool. We match you with a vetted professional based on your stack, domain, and working style, you conduct a technical interview before committing, and the person is assigned exclusively to your project for the duration of the engagement. They work within your timezone overlap window, join your team's communication tools (Slack, Teams), and participate in your sprint ceremonies. We handle HR, payroll, equipment, and benefits on our side. You direct the work.
Yes — always. We present 1–2 matched candidates with their CV, portfolio, and a summary of why we think they fit your requirements. You interview them before any engagement begins. If the first candidates are not right, we keep searching at no extra cost until you find someone you want to work with.
Within the first 30 days, if the placement is not working — for any reason — we replace them at no extra cost. After the first 30 days, we require 2 weeks notice to transition to a replacement so there is no knowledge gap. Replacement sourcing is included in your engagement at no additional charge.
Pakistan Standard Time (PKT) is UTC+5. This creates a 3–5 hour overlap with UK/EU mornings, a 4–6 hour overlap with Middle East business hours, and an async-friendly relationship with US/Canada (with a 2–4 hour overlap possible with early starts). We set timezone expectations upfront and ensure a minimum 3-hour synchronous overlap per day with your team.
Not necessarily. A tech lead who is good at stakeholder communication and sprint management can often absorb the PM role for smaller teams. Where a dedicated PM adds value is when stakeholder reporting, scope change management, and cross-team coordination are consuming your tech lead's time that should be spent on architecture and code.
