• Coordinate with enclave engineers, and security to deliver FISMA Moderate, FedRAMP, ARS, and Zero Trust requirements, including third‑party assessments and ATO packages.
• Manage day‑to‑day project operations, tracking costs, progress,  risks, and issues, and ensuring timely delivery project deliverables.
• Serve as a primary liaison with data linkage, program operations, and PPRL teams.
• Organize and run meetings, drive agendas, decisions, and address actions.
• Monitor project performance using dashboards and metrics and drive corrective actions, preventive actions, and continuous improvement.
• Support ATO and continuous monitoring by coordinating security documentation, assessment activities, remediation, and ongoing reporting with customers and assessors.
• Coordinate delivery and evolution of enclave activity dashboards, metadata catalogs, and performance/security monitoring aligned with DAMA‑DMBOK and MDM principles.
• Assist with planning and execution, including schedules and coordination for transferring environments, configurations, documentation, and tools.

What You’ll Need to Succeed

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in a relevant field including information systems, computer science, engineering, public health, or other relevant fields.
• PMI PMP Project Management certification.
• Demonstrated experience managing projects in IT, cloud, or health data, involving secure enclaves, multi‑cloud platforms, and research infrastructures.

• Experience working with federal security and compliance frameworks in close coordination with security and compliance leads.
• Familiarity with performance/security monitoring, dashboards, and cost‑optimization practices for cloud‑based systems.
• Excellent organizational skills, with proven ability to manage multiple concurrent workstreams and deadlines.
• Strong English written and verbal communication skills, including status reports, presentations, and project documentation for government, key stakeholder, and technical audiences.
• At least 5 years of project management experience supporting federal agencies, research organizations, or IT programs.
• Ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust or higher and authorization to work in the United States.
• Travel at 10–25% to support on-site collaboration primarily in the DC Metro area.​
