PMO Training Programs
Project management for Software Developers
A program for engineers, tech leads, and engineering managers who run delivery without a dedicated PM, or want to work better with the one they have.
Who this program is for
Built for engineering people who own delivery outcomes, not Gantt charts
Tech leads
Senior engineers running squads and accountable for team delivery commitments.
Engineering managers
EMs managing multiple teams who need predictable throughput without heavy ceremony.
Staff/principal engineers
ICs leading multi-team initiatives that span backend, frontend, data, and infra.
Learning outcomes
What participants will be able to do by the end of the program
Use range estimation, reference-class forecasting, and confidence intervals instead of single-point lies.
Identify cross-team, vendor, and platform dependencies before they bite the critical path.
Use throughput, lead time, and WIP. Skip story-point velocity theatre.
Translate engineering reality into delivery narratives execs and PMs can act on.
pm for software developers
Curriculum: six modules
Module 1: Scoping technical work and ruthless cuts
Module 2: Estimation, forecasting, and uncertainty
Module 3: Dependency mapping across teams and services
Module 4: Flow metrics and delivery health
Module 5: Risk, architecture trade-offs, and tech debt
Module 6: Reporting to PMs, EMs, and execs
Format & duration
Engineer-friendly format. Short blocks, applied to real backlogs
One 2-hour session per week with practice applied to participants’ real teams.
Compressed format for whole engineering teams as an onboarding bootcamp.
Mix of squads and disciplines so dependency conversations are realistic.
Examples in Jira, Linear, GitHub Projects, and Shortcut. Pick what matches your stack.
PM for Software Developers: FAQs
Does this replace having a PM?
No. It makes you a better partner to PMs and gives engineering teams the muscle to run without one when needed.
Is this Scrum or Kanban?
Method-neutral. We focus on principles (flow, estimation, dependencies) that apply to either.
Do you cover OKRs and roadmapping?
Yes. We cover how to translate roadmap intent into deliverable plans without theatre.
Can entire engineering teams attend together?
Yes. Private cohorts work best with intact teams using their real backlog.
