Department:
Information Technology
Job Description:
We’re hiring a Lead IT Project Manager to deliver large, complex, multi-year technology projects—while providing light program oversight across related workstreams. You’ll drive end-to-end execution for modern platforms (cloud, SaaS, digital/web) and cloud data solutions—owning scope, schedule, budget, quality, resources, risk, and stakeholder communications through adoption and benefits realization.
Work Arrangement:
Employees who live within 30 miles of the TMG home office are expected to follow a hybrid or in-office schedule. The initial training period may require additional in‑office days.
Accountabilities:
Own complex project delivery: define scope, milestones, critical path, dependencies, and benefits for app, platform, and data initiatives; run effective governance (standups, RAID, change control, steering).
Lead execution hands-on across analysis, build, test, cutover, and stabilization using Agile, hybrid, or waterfall with integrated plans spanning app + data workstreams (ETL/ELT, models, pipelines).
Coordinate adjacent workstreams (program lens): manage cross-project dependencies, shared environments, data platform tenancy, and integrated release plans.
Deliver modern solutions: cloud migrations, SaaS implementations, API/iPaaS integrations, digital/web upgrades, and cloud data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Azure Synapse) including data lakes/warehouses, streaming, and analytics.
Control project fundamentals: schedule, scope, budget/forecast (CapEx/OpEx), vendor/SOW management, quality gates, and measurable outcomes including data quality, lineage, and SLAs for data products.
Proactive risk/issue management: quantify exposure, drive mitigations/contingencies, and escalate with options—covering data privacy/PII, residency, and security risks in cloud data stacks.
Executive-level communication: concise status, dashboards, readouts, and decision logs for IT leadership and business sponsors; translate data-platform complexity into business outcomes.
Operational readiness & adoption: training/comms, support models, SLO/SLI definition, cutover/rollback plans, and post-go-live hypercare for both application and analytical platforms.
Improve delivery practices: promote test automation, DevOps/CI/CD, DataOps/ML Ops, and data-driven insights (burn-down, cycle time, predictive risk); leverage AI-assisted PM tooling where valuable.
Architecture & security alignment: ensure solutions are secure, resilient, compliant, and cost-effective; work with Architecture/Data to enforce governance, catalogs, and access controls.
Enable multi-member/tenant scale by standardizing shared APIs, common data models, and reusable platform components for faster onboarding at lower cost.
Qualifications:
10+ years delivering technology projects; proven track record leading large, complex cross-functional initiatives (app + data platform).
Hands-on experience with cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP), SaaS, digital/web, and cloud data ecosystems (e.g., Snowflake/Databricks/BigQuery/Synapse, DBT, Kafka/Kinesis, Airflow/Azure Data Factory).
Mastery of schedule, scope, budget, quality, resources, risk/issue, dependency, and change management—including data migration/cutover planning.
Fluent in Agile/Scrum/Kanban and hybrid/waterfall; tools like Jira/Confluence, Smartsheet or MS Project, and portfolio dashboards; familiar with data lineage/quality tooling.
Executive presence and crisp communication; able to drive decisions with senior tech and business leaders using metrics from platform and data domains.
Vendor/SOW management; familiarity with DevOps/CI/CD, DataOps, security/privacy (e.g., encryption, tokenization, role-based access), and regulated environments.
Bachelor’s in a technical or business field (or equivalent). PMP, PMI-ACP, SAFe, or PgMP are a plus.
