• Facilitate vendor partnerships and support negotiations for new integrations, driving expansion efforts such as new CGM and activity-data pathways and the API and org-settings updates they require
• Manage pre-read and action-item workflows to ensure productive, well-prepared coordination sessions, producing pre-read materials, organizing agendas, and maintaining cross-team action logs across CGM, device mapping, pipeline fixes, and API transitions
• Oversee alignment across PGHD applications, mobile and web teams, and downstream pipelines, ensuring synchronized release planning, remediation of SQA-identified issues, correct application of device-definition rules, and consistent handling of edge cases
• Manage integrated program plans, including risk and status reporting
• Resolve cross-team blockers and escalate risks to leadership as needed
• Provide oversight of sprint planning, execution, and retrospectives across teams, ensuring they are carried out effectively and meet delivery goals
• Serve as a central liaison across VA digital health programs, collaborating with PGHD governance groups, clinical SMEs, OIT, pipeline engineering, and product teams to maintain unified progress toward national PGHD goals
• Manage vendor and integration partner deliverables, ensuring quality standards are met
• Advise clients on strategic and technical solution options

Skills
