This is a hands-on delivery role, not a status-collection role: the successful candidate builds and maintains the migration wave plan, sequences application owners and change windows, drives risks and dependencies to closure, and gives both client leadership and Stefanini a single, defensible view of progress. Because the engagement begins as staff augmentation and is intended to grow into managed services, this role is also the commercial and relational front door - the person the client"s infrastructure leadership calls first. Key Responsibilities Planning and Migration Governance • Build and maintain the end-to-end migration wave plan: workload grouping, application dependency sequencing, cutover windows, freeze periods, and rollback checkpoints, aligned to the client"s VMware exit timeline. • Run the intake and readiness process for each wave - confirming assessment complete, application owner sign-off obtained, backup and DR coverage verified, and validation criteria agreed before a wave is scheduled. • Own the RAID log (risks, assumptions, issues, dependencies), with named owners, dates, and mitigation actions reviewed at a defined cadence rather than at escalation time. • Coordinate change management: prepare and submit change records, represent the migration at the client"s CAB, and ensure back-out plans are documented and tested. Stakeholder Management and Communication • Serve as the single point of coordination between client infrastructure, application, network, security, and backup teams and the Stefanini engineering pod. • Produce a weekly status package - waves complete, VMs migrated, defects open, risks, next-window plan - and a monthly executive summary suitable for the client"s IT leadership. • Facilitate cutover bridge calls: pre-cutover go/no-go, live coordination during the window, and post-cutover validation confirmation. • Manage expectations proactively - surface schedule and scope pressure early with options, not after the date has slipped. Delivery, Resource, and Commercial Management • Coordinate day-to-day assignment of the migration, support, and automation engineers; manage utilization, coverage for on-call and maintenance windows, and PTO/handoff planning. • Track engagement financials appropriate to a staff augmentation model: hours, timesheet accuracy, burn against approved allocation, and change-order triggers when the client requests work outside agreed scope. • Enforce quality gates - no wave is declared complete without validation evidence, updated documentation, and application owner acceptance. • Own onboarding and offboarding of Stefanini resources: access provisioning, client training compliance, knowledge transfer, and clean exit documentation. Transition to Managed Services • Capture operational data during migration - ticket volumes, incident patterns, effort per workload type, recurring failure modes - that informs the managed services scope, SLA design, and pricing model. • Drive the hypercare exit criteria and the handover from project delivery into steady-state support, including runbook completeness and support model definition. • Identify and qualify expansion opportunities - additional clusters, DR, backup modernization, automation, platform managed services - and route them to the Stefanini account team with sufficient technical detail to shape a proposal. Job Requirements Details: Required Qualifications • Bachelor"s degree in Information Technology, Engineering, Business, or equivalent practical experience. • 8+ years of IT project or program management, with at least 3 years leading infrastructure programs - virtualization, hyperconverged infrastructure, data center migration, or hosting/platform transitions. • Demonstrated experience managing at least one enterprise virtualization migration or data center move of comparable complexity, with responsibility for cutover planning and execution. • Working technical fluency in virtualization and infrastructure concepts - clusters, hypervisors, storage, networking, backup, and DR - sufficient to challenge estimates, spot risk, and hold a credible conversation with engineers without relaying every question. • Experience managing distributed or blended delivery teams, including offshore resources across time zones. • Hands-on proficiency with project and ITSM tooling - Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, or Jira for planning and ServiceNow or equivalent for change and incident tracking. • Experience operating under formal change control in a regulated environment; healthcare/HIPAA experience strongly preferred. Preferred Certifications and Attributes • PMP, PRINCE2 Practitioner, or PMI-ACP; ITIL v4 Foundation. • Prior experience in a professional services or systems integrator environment, with awareness of scope, margin, and change-order dynamics. • Familiarity with Nutanix or VMware platform terminology and migration tooling; direct Nutanix program experience is a differentiator.
