Job Description – Technical Program Integration Lead

Role Summary We are seeking an experienced Technical Program Integration Lead to partner with the PMO Lead on a large-scale enterprise cloud migration and data modernization program. Together, the PMO Lead and Technical Program Integration Lead provide an integrated view of program health, combining governance, execution, architecture, dependencies, and risk into a single view of delivery readiness. The PMO Lead drives governance, accountability, and follow-through;

the Technical Program Integration Lead provides independent assessment of technical health, delivery risk, and milestone feasibility. This role serves as the technical counterpart to the PMO Lead, ensuring program decisions are grounded in an accurate understanding of technical reality. The program is operating against an aggressive timeline with significant migration commitments in the near term. As a result, this role requires someone who can quickly understand complex delivery environments, assess risks in context, and help remove blockers before they threaten critical milestones.

The Technical Program Integration Lead is accountable for identifying, understanding, and resolving issues that could jeopardize key milestones, migration readiness, or overall program outcomes. This role is focused on technical program leadership rather than day-to-day solution implementation, with an emphasis on validating assumptions, challenging plans, and translating technical complexity into executable program decisions that are driven through delivery, cutover, and business outcomes.

The role requires leadership across architecture, sequencing, dependencies, delivery execution, governance, and risk management.
