Why join Lyzr?

Picture the back office of a large company run by teams of AI agents, with people reserved for the calls that need judgment. If Lyzr wins from its Jersey City base, its agent framework becomes the default way enterprise software gets wired to AI. A $100M Series B, bigger than three in four rounds at its stage, and 11 new roles in 30 days say the build is already underway.

JustBacked's take, based on Lyzr's own site and its funding and hiring data.

Lyzr, in a minute

Lyzr is an enterprise software company that helps large organisations put AI agents — software that handles real tasks on its own — to work in their everyday operations. Most companies’ AI projects never move past the pilot stage; Lyzr provides the platform that takes them into dependable, day-to-day use. Today, 500+ enterprises build on Lyzr, more than 1,000 agents run live in production, and 85% of Lyzr projects reach production against an industry average of roughly 30%. Customers include Accenture, WTW, Hitachi, and Verifone, and the company recently raised $100M at a $500M valuation.

About the role

As Associate Project Manager on Lyzr's Platform team, you will make sure platform work ships on time and everyone knows where it stands. You'll plan sprints, track delivery, clear blockers and keep engineering, Applied AI and leadership aligned.

This is a hands-on role for someone who likes structure, follows through and is comfortable in a fast-moving AI company.

What you'll do

  • Plan and run sprints for the Platform team: backlog grooming, sprint planning, stand-ups, reviews and retrospectives

  • Turn platform priorities into clear project plans with scope, milestones, owners and timelines

  • Track delivery in Jira, keep boards and dashboards current, and report progress every week

  • Spot risks, dependencies and blockers early, and drive them to resolution with engineering and DevOps

  • Coordinate with the Applied AI team and client-facing project managers so platform work lines up with customer commitments

  • Keep senior stakeholders updated on status, risks and decisions

  • Document processes, release notes and decisions so the team works from one source of truth

  • Use AI tools to automate status reporting and routine project tasks

What we're looking for

  • 2–3 years of project management or delivery experience in a software, SaaS or AI company

  • Hands-on Agile and Scrum experience running sprints for engineering teams

  • Strong Jira skills: boards, workflows, dashboards and reporting

  • Working understanding of cloud platforms (GCP, Azure or AWS) and how platform and DevOps teams work

  • Clear written and verbal communication, with experience managing several stakeholders

  • Everyday fluency with AI tools such as Claude, Copilot or similar

  • Strong ownership: you follow through on what you commit to

Good to have

  • Experience at an AI implementation or AI platform company

  • A project management certification such as CSM, PSM or PMP

  • Exposure to CI/CD, release management or infrastructure projects
