Project Manager – Azure Data Platform & Integration

We are seeking a senior-level Technical Project Manager to lead delivery of an enterprise Azure-based data and integration platform supporting digital infrastructure operations.

This role will oversee the end-to-end execution of a modern cloud architecture that includes Azure API Management (APIM), Service Bus messaging, Azure Data Factory pipelines, Databricks Lakehouse transformations, and Power BI analytics delivery. This is not a generic IT project management role. It requires hands‑on experience managing cloud platform implementations, coordinating engineering teams across integration and data domains, and driving disciplined Dev/Test/Prod release governance.

The ideal candidate understands how APIs, messaging systems, data pipelines, and analytics layers interconnect — and can manage risk, sequencing, and delivery accordingly.

• Platform Delivery Leadership
• Lead delivery of Azure-based integration and data platform initiatives from planning through production stabilization.
• Coordinate cross‑functional engineering teams spanning API integration, data engineering, analytics, security, and infrastructure.
• Ensure architectural dependencies are sequenced correctly across integration, ingestion, transformation, and reporting layers.

• Build and maintain detailed delivery roadmaps aligned to architecture milestones.
• Own RAID management (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies) specific to cloud platform deployments.
• Establish governance rhythms for sprint execution, release readiness, and environment promotion.
• Oversee Dev/Test/Prod environment coordination across APIM, ADF, Databricks, and Power BI assets.

• Partner with architects to ensure scope reflects technical constraints and infrastructure realities.
• Manage API and messaging rollout timelines, including backend system onboarding.
• Coordinate data pipeline releases and analytics deployment sequencing.
• Ensure production readiness criteria are defined and met before go‑live.

• Interface with executive stakeholders to communicate delivery status, risks, and business impact.
• Translate technical progress into business value narratives.
• Facilitate decision‑making across engineering and operational leaders.

• Anticipate integration bottlenecks, data quality risks, and deployment conflicts.
• Enforce structured change management and rollback strategies.
• Ensure platform reliability and production stability during releases.

• 8+ years of project or program management experience in cloud or enterprise technology environments.
• Proven experience managing Azure-based data platform or integration programs.
• Familiarity with Azure services including APIM, Service Bus, Azure Data Factory, Databricks, and Power BI.
• Experience coordinating Dev Ops processes, CI/CD workflows, and environment promotion strategies.
• Strong understanding of API integration patterns and data pipeline life cycles.
• Experience managing cross‑functional technical teams in distributed environments.
• Strong executive communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Availability during MST working hours.

• Experience in digital infrastructure or data center environments.
• Background in enterprise cloud migration or platform modernization initiatives.
• PMP or similar certification (preferred but not required).
• Experience managing vendors or external engineering partners.

This position leads execution of a strategic Azure-based data and integration platform that enables analytics, operational visibility, and scalable digital infrastructure growth.

Success in this role means more than delivering timelines. It means orchestrating a complex cloud ecosystem with discipline, foresight, and technical fluency — ensuring that APIs, data pipelines, and analytics layers operate as a cohesive, production‑ready platform.
