  • Help business stakeholders refine priorities and make informed decisions with technical input.
  • Translate business goals into actionable plans for development teams.
  • Communicate team progress, risks, dependencies, and issues clearly to leadership and stakeholders.
  • Technical & Strategic Guidance

  • Collaborate with technical leads and architects to ensure teams align with enterprise standards and architectural direction.
  • Stay informed on industry trends and federal health IT initiatives to help guide strategic planning.
  • Ensure that development, DevOps, and security considerations are well-integrated into delivery.

  • 5 years of experience mentoring, coaching, and developing technical staff.
  • 5 years in Java / J2EE, Spring Boot and AWS hosting / monitoring (not required to code, but able to guide).
  • 5 Years of experience in software engineering principles, Agile methodologies, and SDLC.
  • U.S. Citizenship or Permanent Resident with the ability to obtain a Public Trust clearance.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • SAFe or other scaled Agile framework experience.
