MarkiTech - 3 Jobs
Toronto, ON
Job Details:
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:Daily Standup & Sprint Management:
- Run and keep time on the daily standup.
- Convert auto-generated meeting notes into a clear, owned action list immediately after each standup.
- Track sprint status across active workstreams (agent development, integrations, QA/testing, marketing/website), flagging anything at risk of slipping.
- Maintain a single source of truth for open tasks, owners, and due dates (task board / tracker).
Deadline & Delivery Coordination:
- Own the master timeline across concurrent client projects and proactively flag date conflicts or slippage to the founder.
- Chase outstanding items with individual owners (engineering, QA, marketing) and escalate blockers before they become late.
- Coordinate handoffs between team members — e.g., development → internal testing → client demo → go-live — so nothing stalls between stages.
- Confirm delivery readiness (demos, releases, go-lives) with the relevant engineer before communicating dates externally.
Client Communication:
- Prepare and send weekly client status updates summarizing progress, issues resolved, and upcoming milestones.
- Schedule and coordinate client check-in calls and demos, including calendar invites and follow-up notes.
- Track client-reported issues (e.g., from live testing) through to resolution, keeping the client informed along the way.
- Serve as a day-to-day point of contact for scheduling and status questions, escalating technical or commercial issues appropriately.
Task Assignment & Team Coordination:
- Translate standup discussion and client requests into clearly assigned tasks with owners and deadlines.
- Follow up on assigned action items daily and report status to the founder.
- Coordinate across engineering, QA, and marketing so dependent tasks are sequenced correctly.
- Support onboarding coordination for new team members and contractors joining a project.
Administrative & Operational Support:
- Maintain documentation of decisions, project notes, and requirements in shared folders.
- Support light billing/invoicing coordination (e.g., tracking invoice status, following up with clients on payment).
- Help coordinate recurring internal meetings (marketing sync, technical reviews) and keep calendars organized.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
- 2+ years of experience in project coordination, delivery management, technical account management, or a similar client-facing operations role.
- Comfortable running daily standups and translating fast-moving, informal discussion into structured, trackable tasks.
- Excellent written communication — you'll be drafting client-facing weekly updates regularly.
- Strong follow-through: you chase things down without being asked twice.
- Experience coordinating across technical (engineering/QA) and non-technical (marketing/client) teams.
- Comfortable working with tools such as Google Workspace/Meet, a task tracker (e.g., Trello/Asana/Notion/Jira), and basic familiarity with invoicing tools (e.g., QuickBooks) is a plus.
- Experience in a healthcare, SaaS, or startup environment is a plus, not required.
SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:
- Daily standup action items are captured, assigned, and tracked to closure — nothing falls through the cracks.
- Clients receive clear, on-time weekly updates and never have to chase MarkiTech for status.
- Sprint deadlines are visible well in advance, with risks flagged early rather than discovered late.
- The founder can rely on this role to run delivery operations without needing to chase details personally.
