Acting as the primary bridge between our technical architects and executive agency stakeholders, you will navigate evolving scope, demanding compliance frameworks, and high-stakes deployment schedules.Key Responsibilities* **End-to-End Program Delivery:** Direct all lifecycle phases of complex system integration projects—from initial requirements gathering and design review through field testing, safety certification, and full revenue operations.* **Global Team Coordination:** Synchronize workstreams across geographically distributed teams (including offshore software development, hardware manufacturing, and localized field engineering) to maintain a unified master schedule.* **Stakeholder & Client Management:** Serve as the trusted, single point of contact for regional transit agency leadership.

Deep proficiency with enterprise scheduling and tracking software (e.g., MS Project, Jira, Confluence).* **Leadership**: Demonstrated experience leading matrixed, global teams across multiple time zones without direct line-reporting authority.* **Location & Mobility**: Must be based in or willing to relocate to the DMV region. Ability to travel frequently to local client sites and regional transit hubs for field alignment, compliance testing, and executive governance meetings.Preferred Qualifications* **Education**: Degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline.* **Industry Credentials**: PMP (Project Management Professional) certification and/or Scrum Master (CSM) certification is highly desirable.* **Domain Expertise:** Deep technical familiarity with Account-Based Ticketing (ABT), open payments (EMV contactless), mobile ticketing applications, virtual transit cards, and regional data clearinghouse operations.* **Procurement Knowledge**: Strong working knowledge of public sector procurement processes, Federal Transit Administration (FTA) guidelines, and regional transit agency operating environments in the DMV.Cubic Pay Range:$103,506.00 - $170,000.00\* + benefits. \*Our compensation reflects the cost of labor across several US geographic markets.
