Facilitate design reviews and architectural discussions, ensuring cost/schedule/performance trade-offs align with organizational goals

A day in the life
Your mornings involve facilitating deep dives into technology trade-offs and partner team execution plans — resolving conflicts and aligning teams to deliver on senior leadership goals. Afternoons shift between concept approval meetings, unblocking cross-team dependencies, and working sessions refining program requirements. You also serve as the operational backbone of the team — running weekly syncs, maintaining the portfolio tracker, flagging resource conflicts, and partnering with leadership on strategic planning and prioritization. No two days are the same.
