VISA RESTRICTIONS:

This is NOT a pure Project Manager and NOT a pure Software Developer. They want someone who can work across both technical and functional areas.

REQUIRED SKILLS

• 10+ years of experience in software development, delivery, and lifecycle management.
• Strong hands-on coding experience in Python or .NET (C#).
• Solid experience with system integrations (REST APIs, messaging, third-party and internal systems).
• Hands-on experience with CI/CD tooling (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, GitLab CI) and deployment processes.
• Experience with specific FOSS/SCA and vulnerability tooling such as Black Duck, Snyk, Mend (formerly WhiteSource), FOSSA, Sonatype Nexus Lifecycle, Veracode, Checkmarx, SonarQube, or Qualys.
• Familiarity with SBOM generation and management, and with CVE/CVSS-based prioritization.

Responsibilities:

• Track and coordinate the status of all CI/CD pipelines, deployments, and release activities across teams, maintaining clear visibility into progress, blockers, and risks.
• Own and track FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) scanning across applications — reviewing scan results, triaging license and dependency findings, coordinating remediation with development teams, and maintaining compliance evidence.
• Own and track Mythos vulnerability scanning activity — monitoring scan coverage and results, triaging findings by severity, driving remediation SLAs, and reporting posture to stakeholders.
• Integrate and maintain security and compliance gates (FOSS/SCA, vulnerability, static analysis) within CI/CD pipelines so issues are caught before release.
• Monitor and report on the status of AI/ML projects, including ongoing discussions, decisions, milestones, and delivery timelines.
• Act as a techno-functional bridge between engineering, DevOps, InfoSec, product, and leadership, translating technical detail into functional status and vice versa.
• Contribute hands-on to development and integration work using Python and/or .NET.
• Oversee software development lifecycle (SDLC) activities, ensuring adherence to standards, timelines, security requirements, and quality gates.
• Support troubleshooting and root-cause analysis across development, test, and production environments.
• Maintain documentation of pipeline configurations, deployment processes, integration points, scan/remediation status, and project status.
• Facilitate discussions, capture action items, and follow through on cross-functional dependencies for AI, security, and engineering initiatives.
• Drive continuous improvement in deployment reliability, release cadence, scan coverage, and remediation turnaround.
