• Develop and maintain project plans, schedules, milestones, resource plans, and delivery roadmaps.
• Track project scope, timelines, deliverables, risks, issues, assumptions, and dependencies.
• Maintain RAID logs, decision logs, action items, and project documentation.
• Coordinate cross‑functional teams, including cybersecurity, cloud engineering, infrastructure, network operations, architecture, application development, and business stakeholders.
• Monitor project progress, identify delivery risks, and develop mitigation and recovery plans.

• Coordinate testing, deployment, release readiness, implementation, and post‑implementation activities.
• Manage or support projects involving cybersecurity, cloud platforms, and enterprise infrastructure.
