Job Description
We are seeking an experienced Technical Project Lead to support a large-scale enterprise infrastructure and data centre migration initiative. The successful candidate will lead the planning, coordination, and execution of application migration activities while ensuring the successful transition of mission-critical enterprise systems with minimal operational disruption.
The Technical Project Lead will collaborate with business stakeholders, application owners, infrastructure, network, security, and vendor teams to drive migration readiness, application assessments, dependency analysis, testing coordination, cutover planning, risk management, and post-migration stabilization. This role requires strong technical project leadership, stakeholder management, and the ability to coordinate multiple concurrent workstreams in a complex enterprise environment.
The ideal candidate will have extensive experience delivering infrastructure transformation, application migration, or data centre migration projects within large organizations. A solid understanding of enterprise architecture, hosting environments, infrastructure dependencies, cloud technologies, and operational support models is essential. Experience producing migration plans, readiness assessments, dependency maps, testing strategies, implementation plans, and risk registers is highly valued.
Key responsibilities include leading migration planning and execution, facilitating discovery workshops, coordinating cross-functional technical teams, managing project risks and issues, overseeing testing and cutover activities, supporting transition-to-operations, and developing technical documentation. The successful candidate will also contribute to knowledge sharing by delivering technical presentations and creating reusable documentation to strengthen internal team capabilities.
The ideal candidate possesses excellent communication, facilitation, analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and build consensus across technical and business stakeholders. Experience with Microsoft Azure, hybrid cloud environments, infrastructure modernization, healthcare systems, or other highly regulated industries is considered a strong asset. Professional certifications such as PMP, PRINCE2, Agile, CBAP, CCBA, or PMI-PBA are also desirable.
