Technical Roadmap and Baseline Integration Specialist

Technical Roadmap and Baseline Integration Specialist

The Opportunity:

This role gives a large, multi-team development organization one consistent connection to Program Controls. Agile teams and PCO teams plan, estimate, and charge work in parallel. Without integration across the teams and organizations, plans can drift from budgets, dependencies surface late and charging errors occur across teams. The Technical Baseline and Roadmap Integration Specialist works across each Agile team and coordinates with the PCO team. They roll team plans up into one program view, keep charging accurately at scale, and explain variances in terms of what happened in specific teams. The specialist would coach Scrum Masters and team leads on the business impact of changes and help them plan work and dependencies across teams. The ideal candidate is a senior program professional with the technical depth to earn developers' trust and the analytical skill to handle large volumes of data.

What You'll Work On:

• Represent Program Controls in organization-wide planning events, capturing each Agile team's commitments, capacity, and dependencies.
• Roll Agile team plans up into one program plan or Roadmap, schedule and budget view, and track as plans change.
• Comprehensive analysis to assist Agile teams to understand and report on Agile execution.  
• Work directly with teams to automate analysis in support of both financials as well as progress against Program roadmaps.
• Maintain a single, consistent structure linking how teams organize work to how the program budgets and tracks charges across PIs.
• Identify capacity imbalances between Agile teams, and staffing, cost, and schedule scenarios for leadership.
• Maintain the organization-wide dependency map including Giver and Receivers, both internal and external, and flag internal and external dependencies between Agile and customer teams that put key milestones at risk.
• Verify each reporting period that labor across all teams is charged to the codes that match the work performed.
• Build repeatable, automated reconciliations between timekeeping data and Agile team work-tracking data.
• Spot charging patterns by Agile team or pod, correct mischarges with managers and Finance, and address root causes through training.
• Make sure valid charge codes exist before new work starts, including when Agile teams reorganize.
• Support charging compliance for audits led by the PCO team or corporate organization.
• Compare planned versus actual cost, schedule and delivery by Agile team and for the program, each reporting period and each planning cycle (PIPE).
• Trace variances to specific teams and root causes such as unfinished work, unplanned work, dependency delays, estimating gaps or staffing changes.
• Write clear variance explanations with corrective actions and update program forecasts including cost and schedule.
• Coordinate with Scrum Masters to understand how scope, priority and staffing changes affect budget, schedule, charging and contract commitments.
• Coach teams toward consistent estimating and planning practices so plans can be compared and rolled up.
• Identify when a change needs a formal re-plan or reprioritization, management approval or customer notification, and prepare the supporting analysis.
• Build and maintain automated reporting that connects work-tracking, timekeeping, scheduling, agile metrics and financial data across all Agile teams and coordinate with AI enhancement teams.
• Prepare integrated inputs for program, leadership, and customer reviews.
