  Come break things (in a good way). Then build them smarter.
  We’re the tech company everyone calls when things get weird. We don’t wear capes (they’re a safety hazard), but we do solve high-stakes problems with code, caffeine, and a healthy disregard for “how it’s always been done.”

• Support programmatic responsibility (cost, schedule, performance)
• Assist in tracking project tasks, deliverables, and deadlines
• Support the definition and documentation of program requirements, dependencies, and risks
• Help coordinate meetings, technical exchanges, and briefings
• Draft status updates, reports, and visualizations for internal use and leadership reviews
• Monitor initiative progress and escalate potential issues to PMs as needed
• Participate in requirement reviews and contribute to maintaining traceability documentation
• Help update integrated project roadmaps and maintain awareness of key milestones
