Software Project Manager — Lawly
Lawly is building the go-to marketplace connecting law school applicants with admissions consultants. We’re looking for someone to help keep our development work organized and moving — managing the flow of features, bug fixes, and priorities across our dev team, all as part of a small, early-stage team where your work has a direct, visible impact.
This is a great fit if you’re drawn to the startup world and want real exposure to it, not an internship where you’re one of fifty people doing the same narrow task, but one where you’re close to the actual product being built.
What you’ll be doing:
- Keeping track of what the dev team is working on, what’s blocked, and what’s next
- Triaging and prioritizing bug reports and feature requests
- Running check-ins with developers to keep work moving and unblock issues early
- Translating between the founder’s product vision and what the dev team actually needs to build it
- Keeping documentation, tickets, and project boards clean and up to date
- Helping set realistic timelines and flagging risks before they become problems
You won’t be handed a script. You’ll be handed context, a goal, and the trust to figure out a good chunk of it yourself, with the founder available to guide you, answer questions, and give real feedback along the way.
What you’ll get:
- Direct, regular access to the founder — no layers of management between you and real decisions
- A genuine, unfiltered experience of what building a startup’s product actually looks like day to day
- Real ownership over how the dev team’s work gets organized and shipped, not busywork with no context
- A front-row seat to how a live product gets built, prioritized, and improved in real time
- Hands-on experience with project management, technical communication, and cross-functional coordination — skills that transfer to nearly any career path
- A resume line that reflects real software project management experience, not just “helped with tasks”
What we’re looking for:
- Organized, with strong follow-through on tracking, prioritization, and communication
- Comfortable talking to developers and understanding technical work, even if you’re not writing the code yourself
- Genuinely curious about startups and how software actually gets built, not just looking to pad a resume
- Reliable and self-directed — you don’t need someone checking in on you constantly to get things done
- Available for regular, part-time hours (unpaid internship, flexible around your schedule)
- Masters students or graduates preferred.
If you’re energized by the idea of helping build something from the ground up and want to actually experience startup life instead of just reading about it, we’d love to hear from you.
