Senior Project Manager

REMOTE ROLE BUT LOOKING FOR SOMEONE IN DC AREA


Key Responsibilities Project Leadership & Delivery

• Own end-to-end delivery of multiple concurrent technical projects, from intake and scoping through launch, stabilization, and post-launch outcomes.
• Establish and maintain project operating structures: roadmaps, integrated plans, milestones, critical path, dependencies, resourcing assumptions, and success metrics.
• Drive execution against outcomes-anticipating tradeoffs and actively managing scope, timeline, and risk to deliver measurable results.
• Identify and manage cross-team and cross-system dependencies, surfacing constraints early and driving resolution with clear options and recommendations. Stakeholder & Cross-Functional Management
• Partner with engineering leaders, architects, product, operations, and business stakeholders to align objectives, sequencing, priorities, and delivery timelines.
• Lead high-impact forums (steering, technical working sessions, stakeholder reviews): set agendas, drive decisions, document outcomes, and ensure follow through.
• Provide crisp, accurate communication tailored to the audience-translating complex technical work into clear, decision-oriented updates for leadership. Execution Excellence
• Implement a lightweight, durable execution rhythm (cadences, reporting, decision logs, RAID) that improves throughput without adding bureaucracy.
• Track progress against milestones, KPIs, and delivery metrics; proactively course correct when risks emerge.
• Create repeatable processes and templates that raise the bar for delivery maturity across teams (e.g., intake, planning, launch readiness, lessons learned).
  Technical & Operational Understanding
• Work closely with engineering and architecture to understand system design, constraints, sequencing, integration points, and operational impacts.
  Ensure requirements are clear, testable, and tied to business outcomes; drive alignment on acceptance criteria and "definition of done."
• Coordinate cross-functional readiness: release planning, cutover activities, stakeholder communications, operational handoffs, and vendor coordination when applicable.
  Required Qualifications
• 10+ years in technology delivery, with 7+ years in Technical Project Management / Technical Project Management (or equivalent role) in a software/technology environment.
• Demonstrated success delivering complex, cross-functional, multi-workstream projects (e.g., platform modernization, security/identity initiatives, enterprise integrations, large-scale rollouts).
• Expert-level project fundamentals: planning, dependency management, risk/issue management, change control, executive communication, and delivery governance.
• Strong working knowledge of Agile and hybrid delivery approaches; ability to flex the approach to fit the project and teams.
• Deep comfort partnering with engineers-able to engage on architecture and technical tradeoffs without needing to be the implementer
  Exceptional written and verbal communication; able to drive alignment, defuse ambiguity, and move decisions forward.
• Proven ability to juggle multiple initiatives and stakeholders while maintaining clarity, structure, and predictable execution.
• Must be able to work core Eastern Time business hours.
  Preferred Qualifications
• Hands-on experience leveraging Jira and Confluence to manage complex technical projects, dependencies, and documentation at scale.
• Experience in enterprise technology environments (financial services a plus) with high standards for reliability, security, and auditability.
• Background delivering projects involving cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP), data/analytics, security/identity, infrastructure modernization, or enterprise application ecosystems.
• Experience coordinating complex work with third-party vendors, integration partners, and managed service providers.
• Experience operating within or partnering closely with a PMO / centralized project function
• Experience producing executive-level project reporting (OKRs, KPIs, roadmaps, and risk summaries) for senior leadership and steering committees.
  Working Style & Competencies
• Senior, calm operator: you bring clarity and momentum in ambiguity, and you're trusted in high-stakes situations.
• Executive-ready facilitator: you run meetings that drive outcomes, not updates- tight agendas, clear decisions, strong follow-through.
• Ownership mindset: you don't just track work-you drive it, escalating with context and options when needed.
  Collaborative and low-ego; able to influence across teams without formal authority and build strong partnerships with engineering leadership.
• High bar for operational excellence: disciplined about structure, documentation, and repeatable execution-without unnecessary overhead
