About this role
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Kforce has a client in Herndon, VA that is seeking a Technical Program Product Manager.
Summary:
Critical Projects Implementation (CPI) has an immediate opening for a Technical Program Manager to scale standardized Method of Procedure (MOP) development for data center infrastructure projects. You will be responsible for developing and managing high-quality technical procedures that affect critical capacity delivery across AMER AWS data center sites. The projects require timely execution with the highest degrees of security, performance, availability, and reliability. You will act as a bridge between CPI and DCEO Principal Engineers, site Chief Engineers, and regional stakeholders that rely on our standardized procedures.
The team serves as the critical bridge between Area Managers, General Contractors, Legal, and Finance-managing the complex web of work orders, change orders, budget reallocations, and contract modifications that keep retrofit projects moving. Without this coordination function, projects would face delays in approvals, budget misalignment, and compliance gaps that could impact delivery timelines
Other responsibilities include defining MOP requirements, planning delivery timelines, coordinating DCEO reviews, and managing the approval workflow through Policy. The TPM will provide escalation management, anticipate and make tradeoffs, and balance business needs versus technical constraints including safety, quality, and accuracy. We are a dynamic team within CPI that is pioneering an innovative Tier 1 Standard Work pathway to reduce approval timelines. You will have the opportunity to make an impact on where the program goes and directly support S-Team capacity goals.
REQUIREMENTS:
* 5+ years of industry experience as a technical program manager, project manager, or technical lead in data center or critical infrastructure environments
* 3+ years of experience working in data center environments including operations, construction, commissioning, or critical facilities
* Technical writing excellence for Critical Infrastructure
* Demonstrated ability to write clear, precise, safety-critical procedures (MOPs, SOPs, work instructions)
* Experience translating complex electrical/mechanical systems into executable step-by-step guidance
* Portfolio of writing samples showing technical accuracy and operational clarity
* Demonstrated technical writing experience with MOPs, SOPs, work instructions, or technical procedures with writing samples required. Knowledge of data center electrical systems including UPS, generators, switchgear, busway, PDUs, and ATSs and electrical safety practices * Good track record of working effectively across different groups in the organization including DCEO Principal Engineers, MCM Bar Raisers, site Chief Engineers, and CPI PMs
* Cross-Functional Stakeholder Management & Influence Without Authority
* Track record of working effectively across different organizational groups (engineering, operations, construction, policy)
* Ability to drive consensus among technical experts with competing priorities
* Skilled at balancing business urgency with technical rigor and safety constraints
The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs. This range may be modified in the future.
We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off. Hourly employees are not eligible for paid time off unless required by law. Hourly employees on a Service Contract Act project are eligible for paid sick leave.
Note: Pay is not considered compensation until it is earned, vested and determinable. The amount and availability of any compensation remains in Kforce's sole discretion unless and until paid and may be modified in its discretion consistent with the law.
This job is not eligible for bonuses, incentives or commissions.
