## About the Role

Core Expertise

 * Proven experience owning full execution delivery of a technical program (not just tracking/coordinating one)
 * Hands-on SAP MII development experience - able to personally read, trace, and reason about existing transactions, BLS, query templates, and screen/dashboard logic, not just describe MII concepts at a high level
 * Demonstrated ability to independently verify a delivery team''s technical understanding of legacy code and to form and defend an independent recommendation
 * Able to review developers'' code across the stack and, when necessary, personally write or fix code - this is a working technical role, not purely oversight
 * Experience managing full stack projects: data/backend and front-end/application delivery together, not one in isolation

Delivery & Program Management

 * Strong command of project management fundamentals: planning, RAID management, resourcing, status reporting
 * Experience with wave-based/phased migration delivery models
 * Experience managing UAT, reconciliation/parity validation, and cutover processes

Technical Fluency (Years of Experience Expected)

 * SAP MII development (transactions, BLS, query templates, Illuminator) - 5+ years hands-on
 * SQL - 5+ years
 * Manufacturing/plant systems: MES integration, historian/real-time tag data (e.g., Wonderware) - 3+ years
 * Modern data platforms - Microsoft Fabric (Eventhouse/KQL, Lakehouse) or equivalent (Databricks, Snowflake) - 2+ years
 * APIs/middleware (.NET, Node, or similar) - 2+ years
 * Modern front-end frameworks (React or equivalent) - 2+ years

Tools (Years of Experience Expected)

 * Project/program management tooling - Jira, Azure DevOps, or MS Project - 5+ years
 * CI/CD and release management (Azure DevOps Pipelines, GitHub Actions, or similar) - 2+ years

Preferred Qualifications

 * PMP, PMI-ACP, or equivalent project management certification
 * SAP MII/ME or Digital Manufacturing certification
 * Prior experience delivering a legacy ERP/manufacturing-system-to-cloud modernization program
 * Experience managing delivery teams using AI-assisted development tooling (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude Code)

Experience Required

 * 12+ years of overall software industry experience
 * 8+ years total experience, spanning hands-on SAP MII development and project/delivery management
 * 5+ years as a hands-on SAP MII developer (transactions, BLS, query templates) before/alongside moving into delivery leadership - this should not be purely a PM background with secondhand MII exposure
 * Demonstrated experience owning delivery of full stack projects (data + application layers) end-to-end

## Description

We are looking for a Technical Project Manager (TPM) who will own full execution delivery of a legacy-to-cloud modernization program migrating SAP MII manufacturing reporting to a modern data and application platform. This is a hands-on technical delivery role, not a pure coordination role: the TPM is directly accountable for on-time, on-budget delivery of the entire program and must have real SAP MII development experience - enough to open the existing MII workbench, read the transactions/BLS/query templates directly, and form an independent view of what is actually implemented today.

This hands-on background is what lets the TPM validate the delivery team''s understanding of the legacy system, catch misinterpretations early, and give informed recommendations on migration approach - rather than relying entirely on the team''s own assessment of the legacy code.

The TPM will bridge business stakeholders, the architecture team, and delivery engineers - translating scope into an executable plan, managing risk and dependencies, and holding the delivery team accountable to milestones., 1. End-to-End Delivery Ownership

 + Own full execution delivery of the program end-to-end - discovery through hypercare/knowledge transfer
 + Be accountable for schedule, budget, quality, and scope across all delivery stages
 + Escalate and resolve cross-team blockers (data, application, infrastructure, business) quickly
 + Own the delivery plan, RAID log (risks, assumptions, issues, dependencies), and status reporting to steering committee/stakeholders
 2. SAP MII & Legacy System Expertise
 + Bring hands-on SAP MII development background (not just conceptual knowledge) - able to personally read and review existing transactions, BLS, query templates, and dashboard/screen logic to understand what is actually implemented today
 + Independently assess the current MII implementation, work with Architects to design the new application
 + Provide technical recommendations on migration approach, sequencing, and risk based on direct review of the existing MII codebase, not just secondhand summaries
 + Partner with technical SMEs and architects to validate complexity scoring, migration wave sequencing, and functional parity requirements against legacy MII screens
 + Understand shop-floor/plant integration concepts (MES, historian data, real-time tag data) well enough to plan around their constraints
 + Represent legacy-system risk and nuance in planning discussions with architects and business stakeholders, grounded in first-hand knowledge of the existing system
 3. Full Stack Project & Delivery Management
 + Manage delivery across the full technical stack: data ingestion/platform, middleware/APIs, and front-end/application layers
 + Review code written by developers across the stack (data pipelines, APIs/middleware, front-end) to verify quality, catch issues early, and confirm work matches the agreed design - not just track status secondhand
 + Hands-on and personally write code when needed - to unblock the team, patch a critical issue, or validate a fix - rather than relying solely on developers to resolve every technical blocker
 + Coordinate across data engineers, full stack/application developers, QA, and architecture to keep parallel workstreams aligned
 + Plan and track wave-based/phased migration delivery, including UAT, reconciliation, and incremental production deployment
 + Manage environment, release, and deployment planning across data and application components
 4. Stakeholder & Governance Management
 + Serve as primary point of contact for business and IT stakeholders on delivery status
 + Run governance cadences (steering committee updates, program reviews, delivery team stand-ups)
 + Manage RACI, resourcing, and dependency tracking across client and delivery teams
 + Coordinate UAT sign-off, hypercare, and knowledge transfer to ensure clean handover/ownership transition
 5. Risk, Scope & Change Management
 + Proactively identify delivery risk (technical, resourcing, scope) and drive mitigation
 + Manage change requests and scope variance against the agreed baseline
 + Ensure quality gates (parity validation, reconciliation vs. legacy system) are met before go-live at each wave
