Technical Project Manager
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Oct 12, 2026. First seen by Alion on Aug 7, 2026.
Join our team as a Technical Project Manager, where you will play a crucial role in the success of our AI platform programs. You will be responsible for managing external build partners, ensuring delivery against expectations, and translating technical details into clear status updates for stakeholders. Your strong technical project management experience and ability to navigate complex environments will be key to your success in this role.
Missions
- Run external build partners end-to-end - setting expectations, managing delivery against them, and holding partners accountable when scope, timelines or quality slip.
- Own delivery planning across the AI platform programme - milestones, dependencies, critical path, risk - and keep it accurate as things move.
- Translate between engineering and the business - turning technical detail into clear status, decisions and trade-offs that stakeholders can act on.
Profil recherché
- Experience working in matrixed, multi-stakeholder environments - keeping things moving across competing priorities and different reporting lines- Solid commercial instincts - comfortable with SOWs, change control, vendor performance management and the conversations that come with them
- Sharp written and verbal communication - status that’s actually useful, escalations that frame the decision, updates that respect people’s time
- Enough technical literacy to challenge constructively - you don’t need to write the code, but you need to read an architecture diagram, understand the trade-offs, and know when a vendor estimate doesn’t pass the smell test
- Strong technical project management experience delivering complex platform or software programmes - you’ve done this in environments where the technology is genuinely complicated
- Proven track record of managing external SI and vendor partners - not just attending their status meetings, but actually steering them and pushing back when needed
- The kind of operator who:
- Is calm under pressure and direct when it matters - won’t let a partner drift to keep the relationship comfortable
- Brings rigour without bureaucracy - lightweight process when that’s enough, tighter grip when the stakes demand it
- Owns outcomes, not activity - the plan exists to deliver the thing, not to be admired
- Has good judgment on when to escalate, when to absorb, and when to push back
