Position Overview

We are seeking a seasoned IT Project Manager to lead a large-scale GovRAMP compliance initiative supporting our client's Medicaid business. This role will oversee the governance, coordination, and execution of enterprise-wide compliance efforts to ensure cloud-based applications meet GovRAMP security requirements and NIST SP 800-53 standards.

The Project Manager will partner closely with Cybersecurity, Cloud Engineering, Infrastructure, Application Development, Legal, Compliance, and Vendor Management teams to drive compliance across client-owned applications and third-party vendor solutions supporting Medicaid members. This is a highly cross-functional program management role focused on governance, risk management, stakeholder coordination, and executive reporting rather than hands-on technical implementation.

• Coordinate cross-functional efforts across Cybersecurity, Cloud Engineering, Infrastructure, Application Development, Compliance, Legal, and Vendor Management teams.
• Manage project governance, including RAID logs (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, and Dependencies), milestone tracking, issue resolution, and executive status reporting.
• Drive application readiness activities to ensure compliance with GovRAMP and NIST SP 800-53 security control requirements.
• Partner with cybersecurity teams to track security assessments, remediation activities, and compliance milestones.
• Coordinate activities across approximately 60 internal and external application owners and vendors to ensure timely completion of compliance requirements.
• Facilitate governance meetings, remove blockers, manage dependencies, and escalate risks as needed.
• Track program progress and maintain dashboards using Jira Align, Azure DevOps (ADO), and other project management tools.
• Support continuous monitoring activities and ongoing compliance reporting throughout the lifecycle of the program.
• Ensure alignment across multiple stakeholders while maintaining project schedules and regulatory deadlines.

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years of IT Project Management experience leading large-scale enterprise initiatives.
• Experience managing cybersecurity, compliance, governance, or regulatory programs.
• Working knowledge of GovRAMP, FedRAMP, or similar security compliance frameworks.
• Familiarity with NIST SP 800-53 security controls and compliance processes.
• Experience coordinating cross-functional technical teams, including Security, Infrastructure, Cloud Engineering, and Application Development.
• Healthcare industry experience, preferably supporting Medicaid or Medicare initiatives.
• Experience using Jira Align, Azure DevOps (ADO), or similar Agile project management tools.
• Excellent organizational, communication, stakeholder management, and executive presentation skills.
• PMP, PRINCE2, SAFe, CSM, or other Project Management/Agile certifications preferred.

Preferred Experience

• Experience leading cloud security or regulatory compliance initiatives within Azure or other cloud environments.
• Experience managing large vendor ecosystems and third-party compliance activities.
• Familiarity with enterprise governance frameworks and cybersecurity risk management.
• Experience supporting highly regulated healthcare or government environments.
