- Facilitating executive briefings, steering committees, stakeholder meetings, and governance activities.
- Leading requirements elicitation, process mapping, requirements traceability, and business analysis activities.
- Coordinating vendors, project teams, and external stakeholders to drive accountability and delivery.
- Developing project dashboards, status reports, PAL artifacts, and executive communications.
- Collaborating with DHCS, CalHHS, CDT, and OTSI to advance approvals and project outcomes.
What We're Looking For
- 5 years of project management experience on large-scale California state government IT projects.
- 3 years serving in a lead Business Analyst capacity supporting California state agency initiatives.
- Hands-on experience developing and managing PAL Stage 2–4 artifacts and deliverables.
- Strong knowledge of California procurement, governance, and approval processes.
- Experience managing cross-functional teams, vendors, and competing stakeholder priorities.
- Exceptional communication, facilitation, leadership, and executive presentation skills.
- Experience with Jira, SharePoint, Visio, Agile/Hybrid delivery methodologies, and requirements management best practices
Preferred Experience

- Experience supporting federal compliance, Medicaid, or healthcare modernization initiatives
- PMP-PMI certification
- Familiarity with Advance Planning Documents (APDs) and federal funding approval processes
- Experience working in large-scale multi-agency or multi-vendor environments.
