Project Manager for the Data Delivery team

The Data Delivery Team is a central part of Kognic, especially when it comes to Advanced automotive labeling solutions (annotations) where we are the link between our customers, annotators and the platform. Playing an essential part in providing reliable annotated data to the customer, the team works closely with other departments, such as Customer Success, Advisory Services and Sales.

We are now looking to expand our department with a new Project Manager to join our highly skilled and ambitious team!

Kognic started in 2018, with the mission to make cars pass their vision test. To achieve this we have developed the Kognic platform where our customers easily can handle all of their automotive data under one roof.

Annotation is when rules are placed on data (the data can be e.g. pictures, videos). The “rules” are information in the form of labels, or tags and Annotators are the workforce who tag and label the data. Kognic provides the annotators with the data, instructions (quality and speed), a framework and a platform to work in. Through this, our responsibility is to ensure that the Annotators have the right training, support and tools to unanimously agree on how the data should be annotated.

The role

As our Project Manager you will

- Lead and manage projects, including project planning, execution, monitoring, and closure.

- Manage, monitor and review the deliveries continuously

- Work in high stake projects where you will need strong analytical and problem-solving skills to identify, assess, and mitigate project risks and opportunities, and to make data-driven decisions.

- Work closely with our Lead Quality Managers, a highly skilled team that supports annotators with quality and annotation technique understanding.

- Ensure accuracy, completeness, and consistency of project deliverables.

- Monitor project progress and handle any issues that arise

- Create and maintain comprehensive project documentation, plans and reports


Who you are

You have the right mindset and passion - that is what we value the most.

Since our annotation teams work all around the world, we believe that you are a person who has experience in working in a multicultural environment and with teams across different time zones. You will benefit from having a passionate and outgoing personality, and not being afraid of direct and straightforward communication. If you enjoy working in a high-paced environment, have a proactive mindset and dare to act under uncertainties, the Data Delivery team might be a good place for you

Besides that, we see that you fit into several of these:

- A university degree in Business Administration or within a relevant field

- Minimum of 3 years of work experience as a Project Manager from conception to delivery

- Excellent organisational, multitasking, and time-management skills to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously.

- Knowledge of project management tools and methodologies, such as excel, trello, notion, Agile or Waterfall, to ensure efficient and effective project delivery.

- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to effectively communicate with clients and other stakeholders, to understand their needs, negotiate and resolve conflicts, and to provide regular project updates and reports.

- Fluent in English, both written and spoken

- A positive attitude, and ability to work both independently and within groups

- Good understanding of statistics and how to create well structured reports.

What is in it for you?

Other than working with extremely talented and humble people in a fun and creative environment we also have a lot of other great benefits!

- Strong values and purpose-driven company

- Workplace flexibility and Work-life balance

- Competitive salaries

- Exciting career opportunities in a dynamic and fast scaling startup!
