Part-Time Digital Project Manager — Website Redesign & API Integrations (5 Hours/Week)

**Part-Time Digital Project Manager — Website Redesign & API Integrations (5 Hours/Week)** Hotels4Truckers® is a hotel booking platform helping truck drivers and other travelers find hotels, access discounted rates, and locate verified truck-friendly parking. We’re looking for an experienced, hands-on project manager to work directly with our founder and CTO. Our immediate focus is a website/UI/UX redesign, alongside ongoing supplier integrations and platform improvements. We have the business knowledge and technical leadership in place. We need someone who can turn priorities into an organized, actionable plan, keep contributors aligned, and follow through so work gets completed. **What you’ll do** - Coordinate our redesign across the founder, CTO, and design/development contributors. - Break agreed priorities into clear tasks with owners, dependencies, target dates, and acceptance criteria. - Maintain a practical project board and keep the backlog current. - Prepare and facilitate a short weekly planning meeting. - Follow up on outstanding work, identify blockers early, and bring decisions to the appropriate person. - Coordinate review, testing, and sign-off before tasks are marked complete. - Provide a concise weekly update covering completed work, upcoming commitments, blockers, and decisions needed. - Flag scope changes and unrealistic timelines before they disrupt delivery. **Who we’re looking for** You have experience managing website redesigns or software projects for small teams. You’re comfortable working with both a business founder and a technical lead, and you can keep momentum without needing someone to assign your next follow-up. You should bring: - Strong organization, clear written and spoken English, and consistent follow-through. - Experience coordinating designers and developers. - Familiarity with API integrations, backend/frontend dependencies, and software testing workflows. - The ability to turn business requests into tasks with clear completion criteria. - Confidence asking questions, challenging unclear requirements, and escalating risks constructively. - A practical approach that keeps meetings and administration proportionate to a small team. Experience with travel, hotel booking, e-commerce, or other transaction-based platforms would be a plus and helpful. Our stack includes Laravel, NuxtJS, and MySQL. Coding is not required. **Scope and working arrangement** - Approximately **5 paid hours per week** to start. - An initial **six-week paid engagement**, with the possibility of ongoing work if it’s a good fit. - Remote, with some overlap with Eastern Time business hours. - Time distributed across several weekdays for brief check-ins and follow-ups, rather than one weekly work block. - All meetings, project administration, and follow-ups must fit within the agreed hours. Additional time requires advance agreement; we do not expect unpaid availability. The founder will retain ownership of business priorities and budget. The CTO will retain ownership of technical direction and engineering delivery. You will own project coordination and visibility into progress. **What success looks like** Everyone knows what they own and what needs to happen next. Requirements are clear before work starts. Blockers surface early. Completed work gets reviewed promptly. The founder and CTO spend less time chasing updates, and the team completes agreed deliverables more consistently. **Please include in your application** 1. A brief example of a website redesign or software project you coordinated, including your role and the outcome. 2. How you would structure a five-hour weekly engagement with a founder, CTO, and external designer. 3. An example of how you handled a missed deadline, unclear requirement, or stalled dependency. 4. Your preferred project management tools, hourly rate, time zone, and availability. A short, relevant proposal is welcome. We’re most interested in how you work and how you would help a small team deliver.
