Client Project Manager

About Gorin Systems Gorin Systems is an AI-first software agency that builds web and mobile applications for mission-driven organizations — Jewish nonprofits, publishers, e-commerce companies, and SaaS startups. We're looking for a Client Project Manager who is equal parts relationship builder and developer: someone who can lead a client meeting with confidence, then review a technical spec with genuine understanding. The Role You are the single trusted point of contact for each assigned client. You own the relationship end-to-end — leading meetings, capturing requirements, managing scope and budget, performing QA, and presenting completed work. You co-manage projects alongside a Technical Project Manager (TPM) who owns the technical execution. This is not a relay role. You are expected to understand the product technically, write plain-English specs developers can build from, and use AI tools (Claude, Linear MCP) as force multipliers in your daily workflow. Responsibilities Client Relationship: Single point of contact. Respond within 1 business day. Translate tech into business language. No surprises. Meeting Leadership: Prep agendas, lead client calls, capture action items, hand off Linear tasks with plain-English outlines within 2 hours. Issue Management: Every client request from any channel makes it into Linear. Use Claude + MCP to search, draft, and maintain the board. Spec Review: Write requirement outlines; review TPM technical specs to confirm they match client intent before dev begins. QA: User-level review of all completed work before the client sees it. Record Loom walkthroughs. Scope & Budget: Monitor hours against approved budgets, get client approval before exceeding scope. Daily Triage: Morning scan of all client channels. Acknowledge urgently, capture everything into Linear.

AI-first agency: Work at the cutting edge of AI-assisted development. Meaningful projects: Software for great organizations making a real impact. Growth path: Start with a few clients and grow your portfolio and compensation. Continuous learning: Weekly team sessions on AI developments and best practices. Developer-first culture: You're a technical professional who happens to be client-facing — not a glorified secretary.
