In this role, you will drive the end-to-end modernization lifecycle, managing cross-functional teams, state stakeholders, and third-party vendors. The ideal candidate possesses a deep understanding of Medicaid enterprise systems, CMS certification processes, and complex health information technology initiatives. This is a remote position, with minimal travel to client site.

  • Stakeholder Management: Act as the primary liaison between state Medicaid agencies, federal partners (CMS), enterprise vendors, and internal business units.
  • Scope & Schedule Management: Develop and maintain detailed project plans, tracking milestones, critical paths, and resource allocations.
  • Risk & Issue Mitigation: Proactively identify, track, and mitigate project risks and issues to prevent timeline slippage or scope creep.
  • CMS Certification Support: Guide the project team through the CMS Outcomes-Based Certification (OBC) or Streamlined Modular Certification (SMC) processes.
  • Vendor Oversight: Monitor vendor deliverables, ensuring compliance with service level agreements (SLAs), technical specifications, and contractual obligations.
  • Financial Management: Oversee the project budget, tracking expenditures, forecasts, and variance to ensure fiscal responsibility.

Qualifications
  • Experience: Minimum of 7–10 years of IT project management experience, with at least 5 years dedicated to large-scale MMIS implementations or Medicaid modernization projects.
  • Education: Bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Technology, Healthcare Administration, Business Administration, or a related field.
  • Certification: Active Project Management Professional (PMP) certification is strictly required.
  • Domain Knowledge: Deep understanding of Medicaid modularity, MITA (Medicaid Information Technology Architecture) maturity frameworks, and CMS MECT/MECT toolkits.
  • Communication: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with proven ability to present complex technical concepts to non-technical state executives.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Master's degree in MBA, MHA, or MS in Health Informatics.
  • Experience with Agile, Scrum, or Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) methodologies in a government environment.
  • Direct experience with cloud-hosted healthcare infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
