The Program Manager is the single accountable leader across all program task areas and the principal interface to the client's contracting representative, product managers, and partner contractors. </p><p>Success in this role is an integration outcome rather than a task-completion outcome. It is measured by whether the client experiences the program as one coordinated effort rather than a set of independent workstreams, and by measurable results against jointly defined Objectives and Key Results. </p><p><strong>Roles & Responsibilities:</strong> </p><ul><li>Serve as the accountable leader across all program task areas - program management and collaboration, agile project management, DevOps and DevSecOps platform operations, tools management, service desk, and software and license management - ensuring alignment of schedules, dependencies, data, and design decisions. </li><li>Act as the principal point of contact to the client's contracting representative and to product and program managers, demonstrating responsiveness and professionalism in all coordination with client leadership. </li><li>Establish and maintain a collaborative digital workspace using client-approved tools that gives stakeholders real-time visibility into progress, risks, and dependencies across every task area. </li><li>Lead integrated initiatives that span multiple delivery organizations, coordinating discovery and planning, maintaining integrated delivery roadmaps, and driving cross-team readiness and launch activities including go/no-go governance. </li><li>Collaborate with the client to define and maintain Objectives and Key Results that link program and feature-level goals, with quantifiable indicators of user experience, operational efficiency, and program effectiveness. </li><li>Own the program reporting cadence - sprint, monthly, program increment, incident and outage, and ad hoc reporting - sourcing status from live dashboards and data systems wherever practicable rather than from hand-assembled artifacts. </li><li>Maintain client visibility into cost, schedule, progress, technical performance, and risk, including self-assessment against quality assurance surveillance measures. </li><li>Develop and maintain joint operating agreements with partner contractors that define responsibilities, escalation paths, and coordination protocols, and submit each for client approval. </li><li>Lead the transition-in effort and the phased assumption of platform responsibility from an incumbent contractor, achieving full operational responsibility with zero disruption to production operations. </li><li>Prepare and execute the transition-out plan, including ramp-down scheduling, artifact delivery, knowledge transfer, and close-out certifications. </li><li>Manage program staffing, including backup coverage for short-term absences, and maintain the personnel roster, training records, and role and responsibility documentation required under the contract. </li><li>Drive an outcomes-over-outputs culture, sustaining continuous improvement through retrospectives, bottleneck analysis, and adaptation to emerging risks, policy changes, and new opportunities. </li><li>Escalate risks and issues early, maintaining documentation sufficient to manage, track, report, and resolve them. </li></ul><p><strong>Required Professional Skills:</strong> </p><ul><li>Demonstrated experience leading a federal IT services program of comparable scope, complexity, and multi-task structure, with direct accountability to a contracting officer's representative. </li><li>Working fluency in the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), including program increment planning, cross-team dependency management, and Agile Release Train coordination. </li><li>Proven ability to coordinate across multiple concurrent contractor teams and government stakeholders, including formal interface agreements such as joint operating agreements or equivalent. </li><li>Experience establishing outcome-based measurement frameworks such as OKRs or KPIs, and reporting program performance from live data rather than static artifacts. </li><li>Experience managing a contract transition - either transition-in from an incumbent or transition-out to a successor - with defined phase gates and service continuity requirements. </li><li>Strong command of program risk, dependency, and issue management practice, with the judgment to escalate appropriately and the credibility to drive resolution. </li><li>Experience managing performance under a firm-fixed-price structure, including scope of discipline and staffing stability. </li><li>Fluency with Jira and Confluence as program management and knowledge platforms. </li></ul><p><strong>Preferred Professional Skills:</strong> </p><ul><li>Prior program leadership supporting a federal health agency. </li><li>Experience operating under agency-specific agile or DevOps delivery handbooks and standards. </li><li>Experience with public-facing, high-volume citizen-services digital properties, including seasonal surge events. </li><li>Working knowledge of DevSecOps platform operations sufficient to engage credibly on CI/CD, artifact management, and observability topics. </li><li>Experience with federal software asset management and license portfolio governance. </li><li>Familiarity with federal security control baselines and the Authority to Operate process. </li><li>Experience supporting a Lean-Agile Center of Excellence or an equivalent enterprise agile transformation function. </li></ul><p><strong>Dynanet Team Requirements and Expectations:</strong> </p><ul><li>Possess Strong written and verbal communication skills. </li><li>Highly organized with the ability to prioritize, balance, and effectively advance multiple competing priorities in a high-volume, fast-paced environment. </li><li>Ability to interact in a professional and collaborative manner with fellow Dynanet Teammates and the clients, and business partners that we work with. </li><li>Ability and desire to challenge and educate yourself to support and advance IT services delivery in the Federal agencies we serve. </li><li>Excellent judgment and creative problem-solving skills. </li><li>Respond to team member and client requests via email, MS teams, or other communication means during core business hours. </li><li>Active listening skills to understand clients' needs, and collaboration skills to work with other developers and designers. </li></ul><p><strong>Education/Experience Requirements:</strong> </p><ul><li>Bachelor's degree in relevant discipline.
