  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and technical communication skills.
  • Proficiency with project management and collaboration tools (e.g., MS Project, Jira, Confluence, Trello).
  • (required for government contract eligibility).
  • Ability to pass a federal background investigation.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Cloud architecture certifications (e.g., AWS Solutions Architect, Azure Solutions Architect Expert).
  • PMP, CSM, PMI-ACP, or similar project management certifications.
  • Experience working with HHS agencies (e.g., FDA, NIH, CMS, HRSA, CDC).
