Summary

Sr. Data Project Manager
Location: Austin Texas Hybrid
Long term Contract
Summary:
 The Bridge Data Project Manager owns the plan, schedule, risks and quality gates for moving child welfare data from DFPS's legacy SACWIS (IMPACT) to the new CCWIS system. The migration and data synching will run in phases by modules. Both systems will be live simultaneously through the completion of the modernization transition. This role will lead the data bridge team that keeps the systems and data consistent and in sync until the legacy system is retired.
Key responsibilities
  • Design the front and back data synching bridge plans and manage the team supporting it: scope by module, conversion strategy, mock-conversion cycles, cutover rehearsals and go/no-go criteria.
  • Lead the coexistence ("data bridge") approach while legacy and new systems run in parallel: which system owns each record, sync direction and frequency, conflict rules and fallback.
  • Run the daily and weekly cadence for the data sync team: work plans, status, RAID log, dependencies and escalations.
  • Coordinate DFPS program staff, IT, the CCWIS implementation vendor, the legacy support team and QA/IV&V.
  • Set data quality targets and sign-off gates for each conversion cycle; track defects and reconciliation results to closure.
  • Keep migrated data compliant with federal CCWIS rules (45 CFR 1355.50–1355.59), including the data quality plan and AFCARS, NCANDS and NYTD reporting.
  • Make sure confidential data (child, family, provider, CPS history) is handled under state and federal security and privacy rules in every environment.
  • Prepare executive status reports and cutover readiness briefings for DFPS leadership.
Required qualifications
  • 8+ years of IT project management, with 5+ years leading data migration or data conversion projects.
  • CCWIS or SACWIS implementation or modernization experience where you led or co-led the data workstream. Or: equivalent experience on a large state health and human services system (DHS, SNAP, TANF, Medicaid, integrated eligibility).
  • Hands-on experience running a data bridge: legacy and new systems live at the same time, with data synchronized between them (one-way or two-way) until final cutover.
  • Planned and led multiple mock conversions and at least one production cutover.
  • Working knowledge of data mapping, profiling, reconciliation and data quality metrics, enough to challenge the technical team.
  • Experience with state government vendor oversight and reporting (QA/IV&V, federal partners such as ACF or USDA FNS).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication with executives and program staff.
  • Excellent team player who can be team lead under the PMO and mentor others to keep the client/project culture throughout team and project.
Preferred qualifications
  • PMP, PgMP or equivalent certification; Agile/SAFe experience.
  • Experience with any state's child welfare or health and human services agency (SACWIS/CWIS), and knowledge of child welfare programs (child protective services, investigations, foster care, adoption, community-based care).
  • Experience with cloud migrations (Azure, AWS, or government cloud) and SaaS/low-code CCWIS platforms such as Salesforce or Microsoft Dynamics.
Familiarity with ACF CCWIS reviews and federal Advance Planning Documents (APDs)
