The consultant will lead teams supporting business-critical Medicaid operations, including Managed Care Organization enrollment, claims and encounter processing, payment operations, production support, help desk services, EDI/interface support, and stakeholder monitoring.
The environment is fast-paced, and the selected consultant must be available to support production releases, critical incidents, and unplanned issues outside normal business hours when required.
Key Responsibilities

  • Coordinate activities with external vendors, the Office of Cyber Security, Enterprise Architecture, business stakeholders, and technical teams.
  • Lead and motivate teams responsible for production support, help desk operations, EDI and interface support, and stakeholder monitoring.
  • Oversee incident, issue, and ticket management processes, including documentation, assignment, tracking, escalation, and timely resolution.
  • Provide on-call and after-hours incident-management support for production releases and unplanned system issues.
  • Identify, document, and mitigate operational risks and production issues.
  • Manage internal and external escalations and ensure issues are assigned, communicated, and resolved effectively.
  • Oversee external vendors responsible for system development, maintenance, enhancements, and production support.
  • Work with contract-monitoring teams to establish, track, and enforce service-level agreements.
  • Ensure compliance with applicable CMS, SSA, cybersecurity, and operational requirements.
  • Monitor security findings and recommendations through completion.
  • Develop, implement, monitor, and maintain Standard Operating Procedures.
  • Identify operational practices that do not align with approved SOPs and coordinate corrective actions.
  • Oversee release-management activities, including stakeholder communications, implementation planning, readiness assessments, approval gates, and post-implementation monitoring.
  • Support change-management activities through backlog grooming, backlog maintenance, documentation, and governance compliance.
  • Assign and oversee team workloads while ensuring mission-critical operational objectives are met.
  • Prepare reports, presentations, status updates, issue summaries, and executive-level communications.
  • Promote a professional, collaborative, safe, and productive working environment.
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in a technical, business, healthcare, information systems, or related field.
Substitution: Five or more years of equivalent experience in business analysis, systems analysis, or computer systems development and modification may substitute for the degree requirement.
  • Five or more years of experience managing system operations or administrative program functions involving healthcare claims and/or encounter processing.
  • Five or more years of project-management experience leading system implementations, replacements, upgrades, or enhancements.
  • Three or more years of experience managing external vendors that provide system development or technical services.
  • Ability and willingness to provide on-call and after-hours incident-management support.
  • Current AWS Cloud certification.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience managing the operations of Medicaid Enterprise Systems.
  • Knowledge of Medicaid eligibility, enrollment, managed care, claims, encounters, payments, and MMIS domain concepts.
  • Knowledge of the System Development Life Cycle.
  • Experience using incident-management, service-management, or ticketing software.
  • Experience developing Standard Operating Procedures for new system implementations.
  • Experience overseeing release management, change management, production support, and operational readiness.
  • Ability to create executive presentations, operational reports, incident summaries, and project documentation.
  • Experience assigning work and overseeing the workload of technical or operational teams.
  • Strong documentation, process-management, and organizational skills.
Required Professional Skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to communicate effectively with frontline staff, technical teams, vendors, senior leadership, and executive management.
  • Strong leadership and team-management capabilities.
  • Strong incident, escalation, risk, and issue-management skills.
