Genesis10 is currently seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager for a contract lasting through December 2025, working with an insurance company in Franklin, WI. The Technical Program Manager is responsible for overseeing multiple phases of the technical aspects of a program, from inception through completion, with a particular focus on the subsystems of major programs. This role will initiate and coordinate the technical aspects of a data center migration program, transitioning from on-premises to a colocation facility. The focus will be on migrating Core platforms, including servers, storage, middleware, and databases, in collaboration with infrastructure engineering and application teams. In this position, the Senior Technical Program Manager will build strong relationships with stakeholders while ensuring that the lifecycle of programs runs smoothly, on time, and within budget. The role requires taking the initiative to develop solutions that involve coordination between various infrastructure engineering and application teams. The manager will make recommendations on work with delivery teams and stakeholders to define the objectives and program deliverables using established processes and procedures. The Senior Technical Program Manager will create, manage, and publish a detailed program schedule based on defined deliverables and team/vendor forecasts. They will also resolve program-level impediments, identify and communicate any unresolved problems with recommended actions for correction, and manage project risks and responses to those risks. Planning for contingencies by establishing appropriate linkages of risk to scope, schedule, and cost is essential. With minimal direction from leadership, the manager will identify and manage technical dependencies for a program across product delivery teams, making recommendations and solutions to gain consensus on technical decisions to deliver high-quality results. Facilitating cross-functional meetings, such as scrum of scrums, and communicating program status to participants and stakeholders in both written and formal presentation formats are key responsibilities. The manager will apply modified methodologies or blended styles across cross-functional development teams to execute the program, which may include working with product delivery teams and collaborating with a traditional scrum master. The role requires effective collaboration with internal and external groups to ensure the successful completion of programs, as well as identifying and communicating any unresolved problems or possible timeline issues along with recommended actions for correction to individuals across the organization. Building strong relationships with IT and business stakeholders, managing project escalations, and addressing customer concerns are also critical aspects of this role.
