About the Job

Requirements

  • Active Secret clearance is required.
  • A bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience is required.
  • At least 8 years of hands-on Agile program or delivery management, including scaling Agile practices across multiple teams while aligning them with strategic goals, is required.
  • Enterprise-level Jira configuration and administration experience is required, including building and configuring Jira environments from the ground up with backlogs, workflows, boards, and automation rather than routine end-user administration.
  • Command of Agile frameworks and methods, including Scrum, Kanban, SAFe, and Lean, is required.
  • Experience with backlog management, prioritization, workload-sizing methodologies, sprint planning, velocity forecasting, and capacity management is required.
  • Experience with dynamic resource allocation across multiple concurrent teams is required.
  • Experience designing and operating cross-functional governance and talent-pool or capacity-tracking models is required.
  • Experience supporting federal or large enterprise organizations is required.
  • Availability to support the anticipated Phase II Jira technical demonstration around late October 2026 and transition into post-award operational support is required.
  • Strong executive-level briefing and customer-facing presentation skills are required, including the ability to support a live customer demonstration and facilitate discussions with Government stakeholders.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the design and live operation of the contractor-provided Jira environment for the Phase II technical demonstration, including entering, sizing, and triaging requirements generated by Government scenario injects.
  • Build and mature the enterprise backlog and Agile workflow architecture, including story-point and level-of-effort sizing, sprint planning, velocity forecasting, and capacity management across multiple teams.
  • Establish the cross-functional talent-pool and governance model by tracking workforce skills, availability, and capacity in real time, and dynamically reallocating resources across CPE ST3 project offices and headquarters directorates as priorities change.
  • Design Jira workflows and automation to eliminate bench time and maximize capacity-pool productivity.
  • Respond to live scenario injects by reprioritizing the backlog, adjusting sprint plans, and coordinating technical and functional resources to maintain uninterrupted performance.
  • Execute Agile-delivery human-resources workflows, including onboarding, offboarding, reassignment, and access management, to backfill and reallocate talent without degrading sprint velocity.
  • Drive cultural change and coach Government stakeholders on Agile best practices, including backlog refinement, sprint planning, and Definitions of Done.
  • Deliver executive-level briefings and customer-facing presentations to CPE ST3 leadership.

Desired Qualifications

  • A preferred qualification is TS/SCI clearance.
  • A current advanced Agile-specific certification, such as SAFe SPC or RTE, PMI-ACP, or Certified Scrum Professional, is preferred.
  • Atlassian certifications, such as ACP Jira Administration or Jira Project Administration, are preferred.
  • Experience leading an organization's transition from effort-based (hourly or level-of-effort) tracking to outcome-based Agile delivery is preferred.
  • Prior experience within DoD or Army acquisition or simulation, training, and test environments is preferred.
  • An active Secret clearance to enable immediate post-award ramp is preferred.
