  • Performing program analysis, managing risk, identifying and influencing necessary course corrections, and communicating program status and activities across all levels of management.
  • Using data and program insights to measure outcomes, visualize progress, and support informed decision-making.
  • Continuously assessing and improving development workflows and planning practices, and driving execution discipline through structured problem-solving.

Additional Qualifications

  • Experience with commercial software products and the software development lifecycle
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and tenacious
  • Adaptable and able to deal with uncertainty, ambiguity, and change
  • Demonstrated emotional intelligence
  • Ability to influence others even when you have no direct line of authority over them
  • Experience in collecting and analyzing data to drive improvements in product quality and software development processes
  • Interest in applying emerging tools such as AI-assisted development platforms and copilots to improve development workflows
