- Partner closely with developers, architects, infrastructure, data, QA, operations, and business teams.
- Act as a liaison between business and technology teams, ensuring requirements, dependencies, and technical impacts are clearly understood.
- Understand system interfaces, integrations, data flows, environments, testing requirements, release processes, and implementation dependencies.
- Challenge timelines, assumptions, and estimates when necessary and identify delivery risks early.
- Coordinate testing, release readiness, implementation, and production deployment activities.
- Escalate issues effectively when decisions or senior leadership intervention are required.
- Provide clear and concise reporting to senior stakeholders regarding project progress, risks, dependencies, blockers, and key decisions.
Required Experience

- Proven track record delivering complex technology projects involving multiple teams, systems, and dependencies.
- Strong technical aptitude with the ability to engage confidently with engineering, architecture, infrastructure, and data teams.
- Good understanding of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), APIs, system integrations, data flows, testing methodologies, environments, release management, and production implementation.
- Excellent organizational skills with strong attention to detail and a results-oriented mindset.
- Demonstrated ability to establish structure, governance, and accountability within complex delivery environments.
- Strong stakeholder management skills, including experience working with senior business and technology leaders.
- Ability to navigate ambiguity, define a clear path forward, and drive initiatives through successful completion.
