Professional Experience * 12+ years of progressive experience in technical program management, IT program management or a similar role in a complex, global enterprise technology environment. * Proven track record leading large, multi-year IT transformation programs with significant budget, multiple workstreams and executive visibility. * 5+ years of hands-on program experience in at least three of the following: * Data center and infrastructure modernization (compute, storage, network, end-of-life refresh) * Virtualization or hypervisor platform migration and consolidation * Hybrid and multi-cloud adoption (AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI) and cloud migration * Application portfolio rationalization and modernization (rehost, replatform, refactor, retire) * Infrastructure automation, IaC (Terraform, Ansible), CI/CD and self-service platforms * IT service management and CMDB (e.g., ServiceNow) * AIOps, observability or autonomous operations * Strong working knowledge of enterprise architecture concepts, Zero Trust security and resilience patterns (HA, DR, backup, RTO/RPO tiering). * Experience managing global delivery models across onshore teams, offshore engineering and third-party partners. * Strong financial and portfolio management skills, including business cases, cost baselines, stage-gated funding and benefits realization. * Exceptional executive communication, influence without authority, and the ability to simplify complex technical trade-offs for senior leaders. * Certifications: PMP, PgMP, SAFe, ITIL or equivalent. Cloud certifications (AWS, Azure) are preferred., Future Vision (3-5 Years) ## Description * Lead an enterprise IT transformation program. Own planning and execution across several parallel workstreams: platform/infrastructure, migration and applications, and operations transformation. Keep them aligned to one target architecture, budget and business strategy. * Turn strategy and architecture into executable roadmaps. Work with enterprise architects and engineering leaders to convert target-state architecture, guiding principles and current-state gaps into phased roadmaps. Each roadmap should have clear dependencies, resourcing, milestones and success metrics. * Drive infrastructure and data center modernization. Coordinate end-of-life hardware refreshes, hypervisor and virtualization platform transitions, storage and network modernization, and the decommissioning of legacy environments, all while keeping disruption to the business low. * Run application migration and portfolio rationalization at scale. Stand up and run a wave-based migration factory. Facilitate portfolio triage with app and business owners using disposition frameworks such as the 6Rs and track progress through to retirement of legacy run costs. * Embed automation, IaC and AI into the operating model. Partner with platform teams to drive self-service, infrastructure as code, CI/CD-driven change and AI-assisted operations. Make sure modernization changes how the estate is run, not just where it runs. * Make sure resilience and security are built into the target state. Work with Security and Resilience teams so that Zero Trust, policy as code, HA/DR/backup and audit-evidence capture are designed into the platform, not added after delivery. * Govern, measure and prove value. Set up program governance, steering committees, decision records and exception processes. Define baselines before work starts and report on outcomes such as tech-currency, vulnerability exposure, cycle time and operational efficiency. * Align stakeholders and drive decisions. Prepare executive-ready updates and decision packages. Facilitate trade-offs on scope, sequencing and funding across Technology, Finance and business leadership, and manage onshore, offshore and third-party partner delivery. * Lead organizational change and adoption. Drive adoption of new platforms, standards and ways of working through enablement, embedded engineering support and clear communication. Measure success by adoption, not just delivery.
