During execution, the Lead will oversee analysts and migration specialists, coordinating data mapping, cleansing, transformation, validation, reconciliation, and cutover activities to keep delivery aligned with schedule and quality goals. They will also provide technical oversight and hands‑on development for complex migration routines and collaborate with application, integration, reporting, testing, and business teams to align migration waves with Agile delivery priorities. The ideal candidate combines leadership, analytical thinking, technical knowledge, and strong communication skills.

The projected compensation range for this position is $150,000 to $170,000 (annualized USD). The final salary offered will generally fall within this range and is determined by various factors, including but not limited to the individual’s particular combination of education, knowledge, skills, competencies, and experience, as well as internal pay equity, location, contract‑specific affordability and other organizational requirements.
