- Facilitate alignment across project, application development teams, Nava, partner contractors, delivery leadership, and technical stakeholders
- Help make platform value visible through clear service definitions, adoption signals, operational metrics, risk summaries, and stakeholder updates
- Support transition, onboarding, knowledge transfer, and operational-readiness artifacts as platform services evolve
Required skills
- 5+ years of experience as Senior or Principal level product management, technical product ownership, or closely related experience
- Experience working on platform, infrastructure, DevSecOps, cloud, reliability, internal tools, developer experience, enterprise software, or other technical products
- Experience with AI-enabled product delivery, AI platform enablement, responsible AI governance, or infrastructure support for teams building AI-enabled products
- Strong ability to turn ambiguous technical work into clear priorities, roadmaps, workflows, artifacts, requirements, and decision points
- Comfort working closely with engineers, architects, delivery leads, security/compliance stakeholders, and client partners
- Ability to balance stakeholder needs, delivery capacity, governance, security, operational risk, and cost
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills for technical and non-technical audiences
- Strong facilitation skills in multi-team environments with evolving priorities
- Ability to meet public trust clearance requirements
Desired skills
- CMS, Medicare, healthcare, claims modernization, or federal contracting experience
- Experience with internal platforms, shared services, developer experience, or enablement teams
- Familiarity with AWS, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, DevSecOps practices, observability, incident response, reliability engineering, or production readiness
- Familiarity with security/compliance workflows, Authority to Operate support, Information Systems Security Officer partnership, vulnerability remediation, or governance processes
- Experience using adoption metrics, operational metrics, support metrics, or service-level indicators to guide product decisions
- Experience supporting legacy-to-cloud modernization or complex multi-vendor environments
