- Perform agency-wide financial and procurement functions related to IT products and services. These include Software, Software as a Service (SaaS), Hardware (Desktop, Data Center), Cloud Infrastructure, Telecommunications, IT implementation, Advisory and Managed Services, and new and emerging technologies.
- Oversee the growing software portfolio and lead end-to-end software acquisitions.
- Collaborate closely with IT, Legal, Finance, and InfoSec to ensure cost-efficiency, compliance, and seamless SaaS operations.
- Apply broad theoretical job knowledge, knowledge of IT products and services, statewide procurement rules and regulations, and financial principles to procure new and existing IT products and services.
- May influence others within the job area by explaining facts, policies, and practices.
- Software Licensing & Renewals: Lead contract renewals and proactively manage the software renewal pipeline (30/60/90-day lookahead); analyze usage metrics to right-size seats, modules, or tiers prior to renewal.
- SaaS & Enterprise Contracts: Lead commercial negotiations for SaaS agreements, Enterprise License Agreements (ELAs), and software maintenance contracts to secure competitive pricing, flexible terms, and clear SLA benchmarks.
- Vendor & Compliance Risk: Partner with Security, Legal, and Privacy teams to clear software vetting workflows (e.g., SOC 2 compliance, data protection agreements, vendor risk assessments) prior to signature.
- Optimization & Waste Reduction: Lead license optimization; identify overlapping software capabilities across business units, drive software rationalization, and reclaim unused or underutilized user licenses.
- Audit & Asset Tracking: Maintain the Software Asset Management (SAM) repository and internal records to defend against vendor compliance audits and ensure licensing compliance.
- Must understand the difference between per-user, per-core, and consumption-based entitlements to prevent overspending and audit risks.

- Financial & Data Literacy: Ability to conduct Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and Return on Investment (ROI) analyses to justify multi-year technology investments to executive leadership.
- High School Diploma. A Bachelor's or Associate degree, or advanced education that provides broad theoretical job knowledge, is preferred but not required.
- Minimum 3 years of experience in IT software procurement.
- Complex RFP/RFQ Development: Experience drafting and scoring complex solicitations for enterprise-level IT services, ensuring that the Statement of Work (SOW) is technically sound and legally enforceable.
