The term "project management" makes me shudder... Fills my mind with boring, borg-like and frustrating memories of working in the corporate environment.

It shouldn't. Project management is even more essential in a startup than in a corporation. Effective project management often makes the difference between an undirected, shambolic effort with no real goal and a focused drive towards a concrete objective. It's particularly important if you have more than 2 people working on developing a product.
Bad project managers abound, but great project managers are as priceless and essential as great coders.
