Senior Delivery Lead – Technical Program Manager

About the role

Exiger Government Solutions is hiring a Senior Delivery Lead to own end-to-end delivery of an AI-enabled supply chain risk management (SCRM) program for a U.S. Department of War (DoW) customer. This is the single accountable leader for the engagement — responsible for the government relationship, contract performance, technical delivery, and the small delivery team that executes the work.

Responsibilities

• Own the program. Serve as the single point of accountability to the government customer and internally — for scope, schedule, deliverables, quality, and risk across the full period of performance.
• Serve as the single point of accountability to the government customer and internally — for scope, schedule, deliverables, quality, and risk across the full period of performance.
• Run the customer relationship. Lead governance and reporting cadence with the government program office, manage stakeholder communication and expectations, and operate credibly with senior (O-5/O-6 and civilian equivalent) government leadership.
• Drive delivery. Translate mission priorities into a delivery plan and roadmap.
• Manage execution against firm-fixed-price deliverables — platform access and support, user training, and a high volume of supplier/entity exploration and investigation reports.
• Lead the team. Direct a small, blended delivery pod (e.g., SCRM subject matter expert and data scientists), manage resourcing and escalations, and own overall delivery health.
• Govern the technical work. Provide technical direction and quality oversight across data ingestion and hydration, multi-tier supply chain mapping, risk analytics, and integration into government cloud/data environments — without needing to be the hands-on engineer.
• Career development and certification reimbursement.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree, or equivalent experience.
• Minimum 8 years of total professional experience, including several years delivering programs in a defense or national-security environment as a delivery lead.
• Demonstrated experience as the accountable lead on at least one comparable software, data-integration, or analytics program of similar scale and complexity, carried through delivery.
• Demonstrated knowledge and experience delivering SaaS, cloud software, or platform-based capabilities into U.S. Department of War (DoW) or federal government customers — including onboarding into government cloud environments, navigating authorization and access pathways, and integrating the capability into the customer's operational workflows.
• Strong technical fluency — able to govern data pipelines, analytics methodology, and platform integration credibly and challenge technical tradeoffs, even if not personally writing code.
• Proven ability to manage a small delivery team and operate as a trusted advisor to senior government stakeholders.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, including executive-level briefing and reporting.
• U.S. citizenship and the ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance.
• Ability to work in and protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) consistent with DoD requirements.

Preferred Qualifications

• Active Secret (or higher) clearance.
• Direct experience with supply chain risk management, sustainment, logistics, or industrial-base programs.
• Familiarity with the DoD SCRM Taxonomy v2.0 and relevant authorities (e.g., 10 U.S.C. 3252, NDAA SCRM provisions).
• Experience delivering into or integrating with platforms such as Palantir / Foundry, and modern cloud data platforms (e.g., Snowflake), and familiarity with FedRAMP High / IL5 environments.
• Direct experience delivering SaaS or software-enabled capabilities specifically to the U.S. Space Force (USSF), U.S. Air Force (USAF), or Department of the Air Force organizations; experience with the U.S. Army or other DoW components also valued.
• PMP, DAU program management training, or equivalent program management credentials.
