Remote Project Manager (Minnesota)
Job Description
Step In, Shape the Future: Remote Project Manager — Minnesota
Ever wonder how the best remote teams make it all look effortless? A seasoned project manager is usually behind the scenes, transforming scattered ideas into organized momentum and making sure nobody drops the ball. If you’re someone who notices the gaps, who thrives on connection and progress—this might be your kind of job.
Make the Remote World Work Smarter
Every project begins as a list of possibilities and a bit of chaos. But give you the reins, and things just click: deadlines start to mean something, resources flow where they’re actually needed, and goals stop being just big talk.
Let’s be honest: this isn’t a role for someone who just wants to check boxes. We’re talking about taking real ownership, ensuring distributed teams work together, and bridging distance with tools like Zoom and Notion that turn remote work into genuine teamwork. Sometimes you’ll be the glue, sometimes the spark—always the person who keeps the mission moving.
Turning Ideas Into Results
Here’s how your impact will show up day-to-day:
Ever had a half-baked idea pop up in a team chat, then watch it become a launch-ready feature within days? That’s the kind of rhythm we aim for—and you’ll make it possible. Imagine a morning check-in sparking an idea, a few pings later, and everyone’s on the same page, with users already giving feedback before Friday hits.
- You’ll steer every phase of the project—from that first kickoff meeting to a post-launch debrief—balancing detail with big-picture thinking.
- Turning vision into action, you’ll bring clarity to roadmap prioritization and help the team rally around what matters most.
- You’ll run sprints and retros that aren’t just routine—they’re real moments to solve, pivot, and move forward. Agile isn’t just a buzzword here.
- Some days you’re lining up designers, engineers, and stakeholders to ship features for thousands of users; other days you’re guiding what gets built next, based on real feedback from the field.
- Troubles pop up—sometimes more than once in a day. But your calm, direct approach clears roadblocks and keeps things frictionless, no matter where people are dialing in from.
The Tools of Remote Magic
The best remote work isn’t about endless apps. It’s about knowing which tool solves what, and when. That means:
- Organizing projects and sprints with Jira to keep everyone honest—and focused.
- Capturing updates and processes in Notion so there’s no confusion, even for the night owls and early birds.
- Quick pivots and deep dives in Zoom or Slack. Sometimes a five-minute huddle beats a 50-message thread.
- Bridging creative and technical minds in Figma, where ideas can move from sketch to reality, fast.
- Celebrating progress with analytics dashboards that highlight what’s working, not just what’s missing.
What Success Feels Like Here
You know you’re making a difference when the team starts asking you, “What’s next?” and stakeholders look to your updates for motivation, not just information. People trust your judgment because you bring clarity without overcomplicating things.
- You’re the person who sees around corners—removing obstacles before anyone else even spots them.
- You make sure everyone feels like a true contributor, not just another name in a spreadsheet.
- Transparency isn’t a buzzword—it’s your working style, especially when it comes to roadmap prioritization and sprint goals.
- The rhythm of collaboration is real. Working across time zones doesn’t slow things down; if anything, it adds new energy.
- When projects launch on time, people notice. And you get the satisfaction of knowing you made it happen.
Who Finds Their Groove in This Role?
Maybe you’re the person who starts mapping solutions before anyone else sees the problem. Or you’ve managed distributed teams and know exactly how to get people on board, fast. If this sounds familiar, you’ll probably love it here:
- You explain things simply, regardless of the audience or platform—whether it’s Zoom, Slack, or any other platform.
- Feedback loops aren’t just a ritual; they’re how you grow the team (and yourself).
- Project management isn’t paperwork to you—it’s about unlocking progress and people.
- You’re quick to adapt, love a good “what if?” question, and can see connections others might miss.
- You’re fluent in agile workflow and know the value of real cross-team alignment, but you’re also open to trying new ways when the old ones don’t fit.
How We’ve Got Your Back
Nobody does their best work alone—especially not here. Here’s what you can count on:
- Real autonomy to run things your way. If you spot a better process, we want to hear it.
- Room to test, tinker, and find new ways to make remote work feel human.
- Growth opportunities that go beyond standard training—this is about finding your path, not checking a box.
- Mentors who care about outcomes and your well-being (really, we mean it).
- The chance to take the lead on projects that reach real users, shape teams, and help the company evolve.
Your Storyline: Real Impact, Real People
Last quarter, we almost missed a major launch. Everyone was spread out—different countries, crazy schedules. It felt impossible. That’s when a project manager with your instincts stepped up. They broke the job into manageable pieces, ensured everyone’s voice was heard, and maintained the energy throughout the toughest stretch. The result? We shipped on time, users raved, and the team actually felt closer afterward. That’s the kind of impact we want you to have here.
