Job DescriptionStaff Program Intelligence AnalystThe RoleWe're seeking a strategic, hands-on Staff-level individual contributor to set direction and deliver the future of Program Intelligence, analytics, and AI across the Program Management organization. This role operates at the intersection of enterprise data strategy, storytelling, and portfolio execution - enabling senior leadership to make faster, smarter decisions through trusted, high-quality, actionable insights. The successful candidate will work with broad autonomy, navigate significant ambiguity, and influence outcomes across organizational boundaries without direct authority.
You will define and advance the Program Intelligence strategy, establishing scalable patterns, standards, and governance for data products (dashboards, AI Agents, web applications, and analytics pipelines). You'll work directly with PMO leaders and cross-functional partners to deliver high-impact, customer-facing capabilities and narratives that connect data to business outcomes. You will also raise the capability of the broader organization through mentoring, coaching, and reusable practices while remaining an individual contributor.

What You'll Do- Set the Program Intelligence & Reporting Strategy: Define and evolve the long-term vision, principles, operating model, and architecture for management information, reporting, analytics, and dashboards that support portfolio, capacity, and delivery decision-making.
- Lead portfolio-scale data products: Direct the design and delivery of trusted, decision-grade dashboards, AI Agents, web applications, and reports that establish a durable source of truth for program health, capacity, and delivery performance.
- Establish metrics and data governance: Create common definitions, measurement frameworks, data quality expectations, and governance practices that improve consistency, comparability, and confidence in enterprise decisions.
- Architect analytics and AI solutions: Translate ambiguous, high-impact business needs into scalable data models, analytical products, AI-driven solutions, and reusable technical patterns in partnership with data engineering, IT, and product teams.
- Influence executive decisions: Synthesize complex data and competing perspectives into clear narratives, recommendations, and decision frameworks that drive alignment and action at the senior leadership level.
- Drive adoption and measurable value: Champion the use of Program Intelligence capabilities, assess adoption and business impact, and continuously improve products and practices based on customer feedback and evolving portfolio needs.
