Project description:
"I. Introduction
Kivo tech is a software development agency with offices in the US and Europe. We work with clients worldwide and recently extended our US business by partnering with US individuals who help us secure US projects and jobs from clients. Our developers communicate with clients during interviews and meetings using our partners' names, as our US partners are not technical.

II. Technical Manager Responsibilities
As a technical manager at Kivo Tech, your responsibilities will include the following:
Interviewing clients in the US to secure projects and jobs under our US partners’ names.
Meeting with clients to discuss project requirements and ongoing tasks. You should record the videos for each meeting, and after each meeting, provide the meeting video and the summary to allow developers and us to follow up.
Managing projects with our developers. Although our developers will work and code for the projects directly with the clients, you should still check their progress in some cases.
Being available during US workdays, from 9 am to 5 pm in the US Eastern timezone(can be slightly adjusted to accommodate your availability), to attend meetings. You have free time between meetings, and you should be prepared to attend meetings immediately in some cases. But urgent meetings are not frequent.

III. Technical Manager Requirements
To be considered for the role of technical manager at Kivo Tech, you should have the following qualifications:
Experience with web development and related technologies to manage meetings and projects effectively. We mainly work on React, Angular, Node, and .NET projects, sometimes Shopify.
Native-level English fluency or advanced proficiency, with a silent accent being acceptable.
Comfortable with impersonating others to interview clients under our US partners’ names.

IV. Meeting Steps and Tips
To ensure successful meetings with clients, here is a step-by-step guide you should follow:
Determine the client’s background (technical, semi-technical, business, or recruiter) by checking the job description, online profiles, and chat history. This will help you tailor your conversation to their needs and interests.
Identify the technologies they are using. Knowing the technologies they use will help you better understand their requirements and provide appropriate solutions.
Understand their business domain (social, banking, healthcare, etc.). Understanding their business domain will help you provide better solutions and show your expertise in their industry.
Aim to secure the projects independently of your actual experience. So it would be best to emphasize the tech stacks and businesses related to the clients in the conversation as much as possible.
Respond to client questions as thoroughly as possible and provide affirmative answers whenever possible. Also, our senior developers who have real experience will support you.
Ask questions about the interview process(like the next steps), team environment, current project processes, etc. This will help you understand the client's needs and tailor your approach accordingly.
Record videos of the meetings and write a summary of the meeting with proper notation after its completion. This video and summary will help developers and us to follow up with the client and ensure all requirements are met.

V. Payment
We will pay you hourly for 2 weeks. You will track time using our time track system. You can track time, including preparing meetings, etc. It will be about 20 hours per week.

VI. Conclusion
In conclusion, technical managers play a role in securing jobs and managing projects successfully at Kivo Tech by ensuring client meetings and effectively managing projects with our developers." (client-provided description)
