Technical Project Manager – Mainframe

Fully remote. Direct hire. $180,000 – $208,000.

Join a niche, high growth technology consulting firm, a Partner of the Year award winner with NetApp, Dell, and Nutanix, backed by double digit year over year growth and real stability in a market where that is increasingly rare.

• Working knowledge of GDPS, having managed projects where it was involved, common across mainframe programs, rather than hands on GDPS execution
• Strong project execution and delivery management experience across Waterfall, Agile, or hybrid models
• Proven ability to lead through ambiguity, align cross functional and dependent teams, and drive complex, multi team outcomes to successful delivery
• Strong executive communication skills, with the ability to represent your team's work credibly to stakeholders several levels up

What You Will Do

• Manage and oversee complex mainframe projects end to end, applying Waterfall, Agile, or hybrid delivery models, and facilitate key decisions with a strong working understanding of mainframe concepts
• Organize and accelerate related technology projects across multiple teams, align dependent organizations, remove blockers, and find the path forward in ambiguous situations
• Build reporting mechanisms that control execution and create predictable delivery paths for large, complex efforts
• Drive outcomes from inception through delivery across the full stack of services and domains, or across multiple teams and integrations enterprise wide
• Serve as the first point of contact and source of truth for project status
• Evaluate designs against scalability, latency, security, performance, and data integrity, staying current with the evolving technology landscape
• Communicate with confidence to stakeholders several levels up, and work directly with external technology providers on implementation plans and roadmaps
• Understand the needs of engineering and technical operations teams, and proactively track metrics to keep your program aligned with organizational objectives
