The Project Manager filling has to be fully responsible for schedule, risk, and cost management, and be able to work with a Project Technical Lead to identify, schedule, and manage to completion, a series of software development, software test, and software release activities. They'll be responsible for customer engagement, as well as activities such as producing minutes from customer meetings and completing internal status and finance update reports with associated review meetings. Software engineering background would be a bonus but is not critical as long as there has been sufficient involvement in software development project(s). Experience of Waterfall and Agile processes / methodologies is something else I will look for as a second level assessment criteria, but again it needs to be relevant to software projects.
