• Oversee requirements tracking through implementation and operation of automated workflows, tools, and dashboards supporting DUAs, requests, approvals, status changes, and training compliance.
• Lead study closeout and transfer processes, including file transfers, Material Transfer Agreements, and documentation required for transitioning completed studies.
• Manage user engagement, communications, and public‑facing website operations on a .gov domain, ensuring content accuracy, accessibility, and compliance with Section 508 and federal web standards.
• Guide execution of program assessment activities, including surveys, post‑event evaluations, user feedback analysis, and performance reporting.
• Provide supervisory oversight for team members and subcontractors, including mentoring, performance reviews, and ensuring high‑quality delivery in all task areas.
• Maintain continuous alignment with privacy, data security, and compliance requirements throughout all program workflows.

• Demonstrated experience managing complex operational programs involving federal data, research users, or secure data environments.
• Experience leading teams performing technical user support, training, workflow operations, documentation development, or customer‑facing services.
• Strong communication skills, including ability to interface with researchers, federal staff, and technical teams, and to prepare high‑quality documentation, reports, and presentations.
• Ability to manage complex schedules, metrics, deliverables, risks, and program reporting requirements.
