Description

Why DataMap

DataMap implements financial and operations software, Coupa, Microsoft Dynamics 365, SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, for some of the largest companies in the world, including Google. We are a small team doing enterprise-scale work: projects run on real deadlines with real budgets, and a coordinator who keeps them on the rails is noticed.

We are an AI-first company. Everyone here works with AI in the loop, project coordinators included.

How we hire

Apply, and you'll get a nine-minute problem-solving assessment. That's the entire first round. Score well and you get an interview, every time. No resume black hole, no weeks of silence.

The role

The Project Coordinator keeps enterprise software implementations on plan: scope, schedule, budget, status, and the coordination between consultants, developers, and clients. It's built for someone who wants to become a project manager and would rather learn on real ERP and Coupa programs than in a classroom.

You'll get hands-on with the tools our teams use (Jira, Smartsheet, Microsoft 365) and mentorship toward a project manager role. The ideal candidate has some project coordination behind them, is organized to a fault, communicates clearly, and solves problems before they become escalations.

What you'll do

  • Help plan, run, and close projects on deadline and on budget, including lining up resources and coordinating team members and third-party consultants
  • Define project objectives and keep an eye on quality across the life cycle
  • Build project plans and the communications that go with them
  • Set expectations with team members and stakeholders early and clearly, and keep managing them
  • Estimate the resources and people a project needs
  • Draft budget proposals and recommend changes when the numbers move
  • Delegate tasks and follow up
  • Spot and resolve issues and conflicts inside the project team
  • Plan timelines and milestones and keep them current
  • Produce status reports, proposals, requirements documentation, and presentations
  • Manage scope changes, see problems coming, and have a contingency plan ready
  • Coach and motivate team members and contractors toward ownership of their work

What we're looking for

Minimum

  • The desire to master project management as a craft
  • Associate's degree in a related field, or equivalent experience

Preferred

  • Previous experience in a project coordination role
  • Project management certification (PMP, CAPM, Google Project Management Certificate)
  • Project management experience on ERP or similar cloud software implementations
  • Strong Microsoft Office and Google Workspace skills; Jira and Smartsheet a plus
  • Clear communication, leadership, and problem-solving
  • Familiarity with business process analysis, user acceptance testing, and running an effective meeting

Where it leads

We promote from within. Project Coordinators here typically move toward Project Manager, then Program Manager across several client engagements.

Benefits

  • Competitive base salary and performance-based bonuses
  • Unlimited vacation and a flexible work environment
  • Free catered lunch at HQ
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Health insurance with a generous employer contribution
  • Hands-on mentorship and paid certifications

Apply

If you don't meet every requirement, apply anyway. We'd rather hear from people who are eager to learn.
