You will own delivery end to end ? scope, schedule, budget, quality, and staffing ? for an Agile team supporting four Medicare program modules, and serve as the primary point of contact to CMS leadership. This is a hands-on delivery leadership role, not a status-reporting one.

  • Serve as the primary point of contact to the CMS Contracting Officer?s Representative (COR) and Product Owner; lead weekly status meetings and quarterly program updates.
  • Maintain the product roadmap, backlog priorities, and delivery metrics in Jira and Confluence; report velocity, burn-down, and progress from live dashboards.
  • Lead and grow the delivery team ? including technical, testing, help desk, and subject matter expert leads; own staffing plans, recruiting, onboarding, and retention.
  • Produce the Monthly Status Report covering accomplishments, deliverables, risks, performance metrics, financials, and staffing.
