About Starburst

At Starburst, we are working to dismantle the status quo of data silos and vendor lock-in every single day. For decades, database companies have held their customers hostage and we believe that’s just plain wrong. Starburst offers a full-featured data lake analytics platform, built on open source Trino. Our platform includes all the capabilities needed to discover, organize, and consume data without the need for time-consuming and costly migration projects. Today more than 300 leading organizations trust us to make better decisions faster. 

Though Starburst has raised $414M in venture funding from top investors, we were founded in a rather unusual way as we bootstrapped the business with customers and revenue from the very beginning! We are a remote-first company with employees all over the world and are proud to be named a Best Place to Work. Come join our team of All-Stars!

About the role

As a Senior Project Manager at Starburst you will:
  • Lead and manage end-to-end project delivery, ensuring successful execution within scope, time, and budget constraints.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including engineering, product management, and sales, to drive project success.
  • Work closely with stakeholders to define project objectives, requirements, and deliverables.
  • Develop and maintain project plans, timelines, and resource allocations.
  • Identify potential risks and proactively implement mitigation strategies to ensure successful project outcomes.
  • Conduct thorough risk assessments and provide recommendations to the leadership team.
  • Establish clear lines of communication within the project team and with key stakeholders.
  • Provide regular project updates, status reports, and escalate issues as needed.
  • Ensure that project deliverables meet the highest quality standards and align with Starburst Data's commitment to excellence.
  • Interface with clients to understand their requirements and expectations, ensuring a high level of client satisfaction.
  • Act as a trusted advisor, providing insights and recommendations based on industry best practices.
  • Identify opportunities for process improvement and contribute to the development of best practices within the project management function.


  • Some of the things we look for:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Business, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • Proven experience as a Project Manager in the technology sector, preferably in data analytics or related fields.
  • Strong understanding of project management methodologies, tools, and techniques.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead and motivate cross-functional teams.
  • PMP or other relevant certifications are a plus.


  • Where could this role be based?
  • United States (East Coast or Central Region)
  • Why build your career at Starburst?

    We live by our three core company values: Character, Competence, and Ownership and are a team of top performers. We are each in the driver’s seat, shaping our organization and working together towards our common mission. We are solving exceptionally complex and meaningful challenges here and as we innovate, we each have the opportunity to build our careers alongside Starbursts’s growth.

    We take care of our global workforce by making sure employees enjoy competitive salaries and attractive stock grants, remote-friendly work options, flexible paid time off, and more!
