Prepare status updates and requirements summaries for program and agency leadership.

Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work with both business and technical stakeholders.
Ability to hold a Public Trust clearance under HHS.
Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (Business, Information Technology, Human Resources, Public Administration) or equivalent professional experience.
