At Orqa, we’re building technology that allows humans and machines to see the world like never before. We bring together engineers, creators, and innovators who push the boundaries of what’s possible – from cutting-edge FPV systems to advanced Remote Reality solutions, and toward the next generation of robotics. And behind every great technology, there’s great organization.

We’re looking for a Software Project Manager to join our software development group, which builds everything from customer-facing applications and simulators to web platforms and the internal systems that power our production and business operations.

In this role, you will take ownership of end-to-end planning and delivery across multiple concurrent projects. You’ll facilitate our agile cadences, structure day-to-day execution, and keep software roadmaps in tight synchronization with our fast-moving hardware milestones.


WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Manage multiple concurrent software projects across shared engineering capacity, setting clear priorities in close collaboration with stakeholders

• Facilitate agile ceremonies (Sprint Planning, Daily Stand-ups, Backlog Refinement, Reviews, and Retrospectives) within 2-week sprint cycles

• Own the team’s ClickUp workspace, maintaining well-defined tasks, acceptance criteria, accurate estimates, time tracking, dashboards, and roadmaps

• Partner daily with Hardware Project Managers to align software sprints with hardware milestones (EVT/DVT/PVT) and assist in triaging hardware, firmware, and software dependencies

• Capture requirements and orchestrate the testing, deployment, and rollout of internal platforms supporting production, HR, and company operations

• Deliver transparent, metrics-driven updates covering delivery progress, risks, capacity constraints, and critical path items to executive leadership

WHAT WE EXPECT

• 3+ years of professional experience as a Software Project Manager, Delivery Manager, or Scrum Master in software development

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Business, or equivalent practical industry experience

• Proven track record leading Scrum or Kanban workflows for software teams while managing multiple parallel project tracks

• Solid technical literacy (SDLC, Git, CI/CD, APIs, web/mobile/desktop concepts) to engage in deep, meaningful discussions with engineers (coding is not required)

• Advanced proficiency in ClickUp, Jira, or similar project management ecosystems, including board setup, dashboards, dependencies, and timeline views

• Strong cross-functional communication and negotiation skills—bridging the gap between software developers, hardware engineers, and business stakeholders

• Structured, data-driven approach to planning, risk management, and resource allocation

• Full fluency in English (written and spoken); Croatian is an advantage

NICE TO HAVE

• Professional experience in hardware-connected software, embedded platforms, or manufacturing environments

• Recognized agile or project management credentials (PSM, CSM, PMP, IPMA)

• Hands-on familiarity with internal enterprise systems (ERP, MES, HRIS)
