About project:
We are looking for a Senior Technical Project Manager to lead two connected migration workstreams within a complex enterprise technology program. This is not a generic coordination role. You will provide hands-on delivery leadership across technically complex, security-sensitive migrations, creating clarity from partially defined requirements and driving the program through planning, dependency management, operational readiness, execution, and closure.
The role requires close coordination between business, engineering, security, identity, infrastructure, and enabling platform teams. You will be expected to challenge weak plans, surface risks early, drive decisions, and keep senior stakeholders aligned around facts, trade-offs, and clear next actions.
The two workstreams focus on reducing technology risk and modernizing access and identity capabilities. One involves migrating external users from unmanaged BYOD access toward managed devices or VDI-based access through AWS. The second involves migrating legacy identity configurations onto a standardized Entra ID setup within existing Active Directory environments.
You will be:
- translate the migration objectives into an executable program structure with clear workstreams, milestones, owners, assumptions, and success criteria,
- define clear scope and accountability across engineering, security, identity, infrastructure, O365 administration, and business stakeholders,
- create and maintain an integrated roadmap, identify the critical path, and highlight areas requiring additional staffing, technical decisions, or leadership support,
- own the integrated delivery plan from current-state analysis through migration design, execution readiness, rollout, and closure,
- coordinate participating teams and external contributors to ensure workstreams remain aligned and dependencies are actively managed,
- ensure migrations include business readiness, stakeholder communications, cutover planning, fallback considerations, and post-migration validation,
- maintain a transparent view of risks, actions, issues, dependencies, and decisions across the migration workstreams,
- identify and escalate delivery blockers early, particularly around device strategy, regional rollout constraints, identity dependencies, tenant configuration, and capacity,
- escalate issues with clear recommendations and drive them through to resolution,
- establish lightweight but rigorous governance appropriate for a security-sensitive migration program,
- maintain the integrated plan, RAID log, dependency map, decision log, stakeholder map, and executive status reporting,
- establish migration-readiness checkpoints and ensure teams are prepared for controlled execution,
- challenge technical plans and migration sequencing where hidden dependencies or delivery risks exist,
- facilitate productive discussions between identity, endpoint, infrastructure, security, and engineering specialists,
- translate technical constraints and dependencies into clear business and program implications,
- provide concise, fact-based reporting to senior stakeholders, clearly distinguishing progress, risks, blockers, and required decisions,
- ensure program governance remains focused on decision-making and delivery discipline rather than unnecessary administrative overhead,
Your profile:
- extensive experience in Technical Project Management, Technical Program Management, or similar delivery leadership roles,
- proven experience leading complex, multi-team migration or transformation programs,
- experience delivering initiatives involving identity, access, endpoint, infrastructure, cloud, or platform migrations,
- practical understanding of technologies such as Entra ID, Active Directory, O365, AWS, VDI, or adjacent enterprise technology ecosystems,
- experience managing programs that combine technical migration work with stakeholder management, operational readiness, and controlled rollout,
- ability to work credibly with senior engineers, architects, security specialists, business stakeholders, and external vendors,
- strong experience managing risks, dependencies, scope trade-offs, delivery blockers, and cross-team conflicts,
- ability to create structure and clarity in programs where requirements, ownership, or plans are still evolving,
- strong technical fluency with the ability to challenge technical assumptions without needing to be the hands-on technical owner,
- excellent written and verbal communication skills,
- strong executive communication and decision-framing capabilities,
- highly organized, proactive, and comfortable taking ownership of end-to-end delivery,
- ability to work independently and effectively in complex, distributed environments,
-
practical experience using AI-powered assistants (e.g. ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot Chat, or similar) to improve productivity, quality, or decision-making in analysis and software delivery.
-
work from the European Union region and a work permit are required.
Nice to have:
- experience with security-sensitive or regulated technology environments,
- experience with large-scale identity or endpoint migration programs,
- experience with AWS-hosted VDI environments,
- experience working with enterprise Active Directory and Microsoft identity ecosystems,
- experience working as an external delivery partner within large organizations,
- experience establishing program governance and migration-readiness frameworks,
- familiarity with Agile, hybrid, or other structured delivery methodologies,
-
experience applying GenAI in a more structured way within the SDLC, including defined workflows, prompt patterns, or tool integrations embedded into daily analytical and documentation work.
- interest in and familiarity with emerging AI-driven practices (e.g. automation of analysis tasks, AI-supported documentation, or workflow optimization), with a willingness to explore and experiment beyond standard approaches.
What success looks like:
- ambiguity is quickly converted into a clear and executable delivery plan,
- migration sequencing, dependencies, and critical risks are visible to all relevant stakeholders,
- technical and business decisions are driven to resolution rather than remaining as open questions,
- teams are aligned on ownership, timelines, readiness criteria, and next actions,
- migration execution is supported by appropriate communication, operational readiness, validation, and fallback planning,
- senior stakeholders receive concise, fact-based visibility into progress, risks, blockers, and decisions,
- the program moves toward completion without the Technical Project Manager becoming a passive meeting organizer, note-taker, or status messenger,
