Job Description
What we do:
Halcyon is the industry’s first dedicated, adaptive security platform that combines multiple proprietary advanced prevention engines along with AI models focused specifically on stopping ransomware.
Who we are:
Halcyon was formed in 2021 by a team of cyber industry veterans after battling the scourge of ransomware (and advanced threats) for years at some of the largest global security vendors. Comprised of leaders from Cylance (now Blackberry), Accuvant (now Optiv), Fireye and ISS X-Force (now IBM), Halcyon is focused on building products and solutions for mid-market and enterprise customers.
As a remote-native, completely distributed global team, we recognize great talent can exist anywhere. We invite you to apply to a job you’re interested in and we'll work a plan to meet your needs.
The Role
We’re hiring a Project Manager who understands that successful delivery isn’t just about deadlines and checklists—it’s about relationships, pragmatism, clarity, momentum, and trust. You see the people behind the projects. You bring structure without rigidity and help teams stay connected, motivated, and focused.
You'll own the successful delivery of cross-functional operations and business systems projects—ensuring smooth execution across teams and processes. This role is not focused on product development, but rather on the operations, tools, systems and workflows that support and scale the business. You will work with and support teams across the business and you won’t hesitate to remove impediments or lean in where needed.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end management and successful delivery of projects—from initiation through execution, rollout, and ongoing monitoring—ensuring continuity, accountability, and a seamless handoff across all phases.
- Own expectation-setting, timelines, deliverables, and communication across cross-functional teams - keeping everyone informed, engaged, and moving forward.
- Facilitate clarity: translate complex inputs and shifting priorities into actionable, documented plans without losing sight of people or purpose.
- Help teams navigate ambiguity and change with confidence and calm.
- Identify risks and roadblocks early—and lead with solutions, not stress.
- Host the type of meetings people want to attend.
- Stay one step ahead—clearing paths, removing blockers, and making space for the team to do their best work.
- Partner closely with stakeholders to understand the “why” behind the work—and keep that front and center through delivery.
- Collaborate closely with the Senior Project Manager to shape and drive success for our early-stage Project Management Office, contributing to the development of foundational processes, tools and best practices.
Experience
- 3-5 years of experience in project or program management.
- Emotional intelligence. You read a room. You know when to nudge, when to support, and when to step back.
- Strong project management skills and a knack for making things happen without making it a grind.
- Exceptional communication—written, verbal, and everything in between. You listen as well as you lead.
- Proven experience managing cross-functional teams and aligning stakeholders without relying on hierarchy or pressure.
- Comfort with tools like Jira and Confluence, but focused more on outcomes than platforms.
Bonus Points For
- Experience in cybersecurity.
- Familiarity with internal operations teams, including RevOps.
- Experience with Agile, but not overly dogmatic about frameworks.

- Comprehensive healthcare (medical, dental, and vision) with premiums paid in full for employees and dependents

Verify Employer Thoroughly
Research the company's identity thoroughly before applying. Check for a professional website with contacts, active social media, and LinkedIn profiles. Verify details across platforms and look for reviews on Glassdoor or Trustpilot to confirm legitimacy.
Never Pay to Get a Job
Legitimate employers never require payment for applications, training, background checks, or equipment. Always reject upfront payment requests or demands for bank details, even if they claim it's for purchasing necessary work gear on your behalf.
Safeguard Your Personal Information
Protect sensitive data like SSN, bank details, or ID copies. Share this only after accepting a formal, written job offer. Ensure it's submitted via a secure company system or portal, never through insecure channels like standard email attachments.
Scrutinize Communication & Interviews
Watch for communication red flags: poor grammar, generic emails (@gmail), vague details, or undue pressure. Be highly suspicious of interviews held only via text or chat apps; legitimate companies typically use video or phone calls.
Beware of Unrealistic Offers
If an offer's salary or benefits seem unrealistically high for the work involved, be cautious. Research standard pay for similar roles. Offers that appear 'too good to be true' are often scams designed to lure you into providing information or payment.
Insist on a Formal Contract
Always secure and review a formal, written job offer or employment contract before starting work or sharing final personal details. Ensure it clearly defines your role, compensation, key terms, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings or scams.
