- Develop and manage a detailed cutover strategy, including phased migration, fallback planning, parallel operations (as needed), and post-cutover validation.
- Manage vendor selection, contracting, and performance, ensuring alignment with cutover milestones, integration requirements, and acceptance criteria.
- Partner with Engineering, IT, OT, cybersecurity, and field operations to guide system design, network architecture, and regulatory compliance.
- Direct integration activities such as PLC/RTU upgrades, historian migration, alarm strategy rationalization, and system interoperability testing.
- Lead system testing cycles including FAT, SAT, end-to-end testing, redundancy failover validation, and user acceptance testing.
- Work with Operations and field teams to develop and execute commissioning plans, operational readiness activities, and training on the new SCADA environment.
- Drive organizational change management and communication efforts to support a smooth transition from the legacy system.
- Manage cutover execution, monitor stability during the transition period, and ensure timely resolution of issues.
- Oversee the handoff to steady-state support, including documentation, warranty tracking, and transition to maintenance teams.
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Operations Technology, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
- 5+ years of project management experience in industrial automation, utilities, energy, manufacturing, or infrastructure environments.
- SCADA project experience is required.
- Proven experience managing SCADA, DCS, or other industrial control system replacement or modernization projects.
- Demonstrated expertise in system migration, cutover planning, and operational continuity management.
- Strong understanding of ICS/OT systems, networking, cybersecurity standards, and high-availability system design.
- Excellent vendor and contract management skills.
- Strong communication, leadership, and stakeholder engagement strengths.
- PMP, Agile, or equivalent project management certification preferred.
- Cutover and migration planning
