Are you a Project Manager who thrives at the intersection of technology and mission-critical impact? Improvix Technologies is looking for a dynamic leader to drive application development projects that directly support Improvix’s federal customer. You’ll own the delivery lifecycle from concept to deployment, championing Agile practices across cross-functional teams building the software solutions that power critical government operations.
This isn’t a role where you simply track timelines—you’ll shape how we build, collaborate, and ship software in a high-stakes, security-conscious environment. If you’re energized by solving complex problems, leading talented engineers, and delivering real results, we want to hear from you.
What You’ll Do- Lead application development projects end-to-end—from requirements gathering and sprint planning through release and post-deployment support.
- Drive Agile/Scrum ceremonies including sprint planning, daily standups, retrospectives, and backlog grooming, keeping teams focused and velocity high.
- Partner with product owners, engineers, and stakeholders to define scope, prioritize features, and translate mission needs into actionable user stories.
- Build and maintain project roadmaps, release plans, and risk registers that keep leadership informed and teams aligned.
- Remove blockers and foster a collaborative, high-trust environment where developers and designers do their best work.
- Manage budgets, resource allocation, and vendor relationships to deliver on time and within scope.
- Ensure all deliverables meet federal security requirements, including compliance standards tied to Secret-level systems.
- Champion continuous improvement—identify process bottlenecks, implement DevOps best practices, and push for faster, more reliable delivery pipelines.
Required:
- Active Secret Clearance (or ability to obtain one prior to start).
- 5+ years of project management experience with a strong focus on application development and software delivery.
- Proven track record leading Agile/Scrum teams—you know how to run a sprint, groom a backlog, and ship working software iteratively.
- Solid understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC), CI/CD pipelines, and modern development frameworks.
- Experience managing cross-functional teams of developers, QA engineers, and UX/UI designers.
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills—comfortable presenting to both technical teams and senior leadership.
- Eligibility to work in the United States and ability to work onsite at the federal customer site in Washington, D.C. 5 days per week.
Preferred:
- PMP, CSM (Certified ScrumMaster), or SAFe certification.
- Familiarity with DevOps tooling (Jenkins, GitLab CI, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform).
- Background in federal IT projects or DoD/civilian agency environments.
At Improvix Technologies, we’re passionate about delivering innovative, mission-driven IT solutions that empower our federal customers. As part of our leadership team, you’ll play a direct role in shaping modernization efforts that matter — while working alongside talented engineers, developers, and program leaders who share your commitment to excellence.
