Program Analyst Jobs

Program Analyst

Large IT organizations accumulate applications faster than they retire them, and nobody can make a sound consolidation decision without a current, trusted picture of what is running, who owns it, and what depends on it. The Red Gate Group is seeking a Program Analyst to support the enterprise IT organization of a major Intelligence Community customer with analytical support for application portfolio management, application rationalization, and IT modernization. You will maintain the enterprise application portfolio repository, tracking lifecycle status, ownership, and dependencies across the enterprise, and you will analyze that data to surface redundancies, gaps, and rationalization opportunities. You will perform qualitative and quantitative analysis of application performance metrics and key performance indicators, use data and process analytic techniques to identify dependencies between IT systems and capabilities, and build, validate, and maintain the reports and dashboards leadership uses to make portfolio decisions. Your analysis will feed recommendations for application consolidation, migration, or retirement, and you will assess enterprise applications for alignment with the customer's strategic goals and IC ITE requirements. You will coordinate with divisions across the IT organization on application matters, support cross-functional enterprise IT planning, and engage directly with application owners and stakeholders to gather requirements and validate the data behind every recommendation.
