• Establish and monitor KPIs, SLAs, quality metrics, and performance dashboards aligned with contract requirements and federal cybersecurity standards
• Manage program budgets, forecasting, staffing plans, subcontractors, and resource allocation across a large, geographically distributed team
• Maintain risk registers, issue logs, dependency tracking, mitigation strategies, and corrective action plans
