Position Summary

The Technology Alignment Specialist (TAS) plays a key role in ensuring client technology environments align with ActaMSP's established standards, best practices, and technology stack.

This position works closely with Technology Service Delivery Managers (TSDMs), senior technical team members, service delivery teams, and other stakeholders to assess technology environments, identify gaps and risks, implement standardized solutions, and continuously improve operational efficiency.

The ideal candidate combines strong analytical and detail-oriented thinking with excellent communication and business translation skills. This individual should be comfortable evaluating complex technical environments while also being able to clearly communicate technical findings, risks, and recommendations to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Qualifications & Core Competencies

Strong Analytical & Detail-Oriented Thinking

The Technology Alignment Specialist must be able to assess complex IT environments, compare them against established standards, and identify potential gaps, inconsistencies, and risks. This requires:

• Careful evaluation of infrastructure, security, configurations, and technical processes.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to identify inconsistencies or risks that may otherwise be overlooked.
• Structured and methodical thinking when assessing environments and documenting findings.
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving abilities.
• The ability to translate assessment findings into clear, actionable recommendations.

Strong analytical skills ensure technology alignment reviews are accurate, consistent, reliable, and actionable.

• Translating technical issues and risks into understandable business impact.
• Clearly communicating priorities, risks, findings, and recommended improvements.
• Collaborating effectively with Technology Service Delivery Managers, senior technical team members, service delivery teams, and clients.
• Providing clear communication regarding technology changes that may affect team members or clients.
