About us
Appnovation is the AI Product Company. Headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, with teams around the world, Appnovation builds AI products, delivers enterprise AI and digital solutions, and co-invests with clients to bring new AI products to market.
Open source has been the foundation of Appnovation's work since 2007, and it remains the foundation underneath every AI product the company builds today. Appnovation teams work with organizations in highly regulated industries, including global leaders such as Pfizer, Google and AstraZeneca, to help them adopt AI they can govern and own.
This is not an active opening at this time, but we anticipate hiring for this opportunity in the coming weeks. We are proactively building a pipeline of experienced Atlassian consultants with Jira Align expertise to support upcoming client engagements. If you're interested in future opportunities with Appnovation, we encourage you to apply and connect with our team.
We are seeking a strategic and technically fluent Project Manager to lead complex Web and CMS digital transformation initiatives. In this role, you will oversee the full project lifecycle—from discovery and solution design to development, launch, and post-launch optimization.
You will manage cross-functional teams including strategists, UX designers, architects, developers, and QA specialists while serving as the primary point of contact for enterprise clients.
This is an exciting opportunity for a delivery leader who thrives in fast-paced digital environments, understands modern web architecture and CMS ecosystems, and can balance technical complexity with commercial accountability. You will report to the Delivery Director and play a key role in driving successful, scalable digital platform implementations.
