Role Summary

Provide program management, planning, and executive-level coordination for a federal cloud data management program. This is a lean, hands-on PM role — you'll run agile delivery cadence, own the schedule and risk register, and be the primary management interface to the client's leadership. Ideal for an experienced federal program manager seeking a steady part-time engagement.

What You'll Do

Maintain an Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) covering milestones, dependencies, and critical-path activities

Run two-week agile sprints — sprint planning, daily standups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives — using product/sprint backlogs and burndown charts

Conduct biweekly status reviews covering accomplishments, risks, issues, actions, and upcoming priorities

Prepare and deliver executive briefings suitable for senior government leadership and cross-organization stakeholders

Maintain a continuously updated risk, issue, and action-tracking register

Coordinate planning across technical, operational, and governance workstreams

Engage stakeholders at sprint close to demonstrate deliverables, gather feedback, and adjust priorities

Ensure all management artifacts are version-controlled and client-accessible

Key Deliverables

Integrated Master Schedule (draft and final, early in the engagement; maintained thereafter)

Quality Assurance Plan

Monthly status reports including quality-control status

Executive briefing materials, as needed

Risk/issue/action register, folded into recurring status reporting

What We're Looking For

Proven program/project management experience in a federal or regulated environment, working with government stakeholders and structured deliverables

Demonstrated experience delivering work under defined service levels with documented quality controls and formal deliverable acceptance

Strong agile delivery background — sprint cadence, backlog management, burndown tracking

Excellent written and verbal communication; able to produce executive-ready briefings and concise status reporting

Comfortable operating efficiently in a part-time capacity across a technical data/cloud program

Familiarity with data platform or cloud (AWS) programs strongly preferred — enough technical fluency to coordinate database, data engineering, and governance workstreams credibly

Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
