Your Core Mission: Building Bridges That Scale

Strategic Program Leadership

• Take charge of diverse, multi-market localization projects from initial scoping to launch and iteration. Your strategic planning and timeline mastery keep stakeholders informed and projects on track.
• You’ll partner with product, engineering, and design teams to drive unified solutions that feel authentic in every market. Every feature you manage—be it content, UI, or support—lands with cultural precision and technical accuracy.

Impactful Stakeholder Engagement

• Your ability to simplify the complex—whether via Zoom, Slack, or detailed project dashboards—ensures every update is clear and actionable. Team alignment isn’t just a task; it’s the outcome of your thoughtful communication.
• You’ll facilitate regular sprint reviews, retro meetings, and milestone check-ins, all tailored for remote collaboration tools and workflows.

Localization Workflow Excellence

• Shape and refine the localization pipeline using advanced tools such as Smartling, Transifex, or Lokalise. Your eye for quality means glossaries, style guides, and translation memories evolve with every project.
• You’ll set up scalable QA processes, partnering with linguists and functional testers to deliver pixel-perfect results across web, mobile, and in-product experiences.

Key Responsibilities: Turning Tasks Into Impact

Orchestrate Multilingual Launches

• Oversee all phases of localization for web, mobile, and marketing assets, ensuring nothing gets lost in translation—literally and figuratively.
• Analyze project needs, build resource plans, and anticipate localization roadblocks before they arise. Your insights power better decisions for both the product and the people using it.

Drive Continuous Improvement

• Conduct retrospectives and root-cause analyses to fine-tune processes after every release. Data from each project guides the next, creating a cycle of learning and progress.
• You’ll keep stakeholders informed with transparent reporting, so everyone, from developers to executives, knows precisely how localization drives growth.

Cultivate Cultural Intelligence

• Work with in-market reviewers and global partners to guarantee every launch respects regional sensitivities, compliance needs, and user expectations.
• Your feedback guides copywriters, designers, and product leads in creating experiences that feel local everywhere.

What You’ll Use: Tools, Technology, and Methodologies

• Harness localization management systems (LMS) like Smartling, Lokalise, or Memsource for seamless workflow automation.
• Manage agile project cycles using Jira or Asana, aligning backlog refinement and sprint planning to localization timelines.
• Facilitate remote team syncs on Slack, Notion, and Zoom—creating a space where creative problem-solving thrives, regardless of time zone.
• Use data analytics to measure localization quality, speed, and ROI, surfacing actionable insights to improve every launch.

Who Thrives Here: Your Mindset and Approach

Outcome-Obsessed, Detail-Driven

• You see localization as a driver of user adoption, not just a box to check. Your sense of ownership turns global launches into case studies for excellence.
• Process optimization excites you—finding ways to streamline handoffs, reduce cycle times, and increase translation accuracy comes naturally.

Proactive Collaborator

• You listen first, ask thoughtful questions, and bring clarity to even the messiest challenges. Teams trust you to drive meaningful change, not just manage checklists.
• You excel in asynchronous communication and love building relationships across geographies, disciplines, and languages.

Creative Problem Solver

• Each day brings fresh puzzles—regulatory shifts, last-minute string changes, evolving UX requirements. You treat every obstacle as an opportunity to innovate and build more intelligent systems.
• Your mindset: "No detail too small, no challenge too complex." Every project feels personal, because it is—for you and the people you serve.

Growth, Flexibility, and Rewards

• Work remotely from anywhere, leveraging a flexible schedule that prioritizes deep focus, autonomy, and meaningful collaboration.
• Learn from localization leaders and advance your project management skillset with dedicated learning budgets, global conferences, and peer mentoring.
• Your contributions directly shape how diverse communities experience products and services, creating impact that’s measurable, memorable, and rewarding.
• Enjoy a competitive annual salary of $141,620, plus additional performance-based incentives and benefits that support your work-life balance.
