The Opportunity

A clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company in the DC metro area is executing a complex IT separation program tied to a manufacturing divestiture and facility relocation. The program spans separation of approximately 30 applications, migration and decommission of approximately 40 servers and cloud assets, new facility IT infrastructure buildout, and replacement Finance and QMS system selection.

We are placing one Senior IT Infrastructure PM into this program. The role operates within a structured PMO led by a prime contractor and owns infrastructure-related project execution, workstream coordination, and stakeholder management. This is not a hands-on engineering role and is not the overall program manager seat.

Own infrastructure-related workstreams within a multi-stream IT separation program
Coordinate across client IT teams, the prime PMO, and third-party vendors
Track milestones, manage dependencies, and escalate risks within the program governance structure
Contribute to status reporting and RAID log maintenance
Support application inventory, server separation planning, and new facility buildout coordination
Attend onsite sessions in Rockville, MD every other week -- travel is covered

Required Qualifications

4 to 7 years of IT infrastructure project management experience
Demonstrated experience on M&A, divestiture, carve-out, or IT separation engagements -- required
General infrastructure background: servers, cloud platforms, networking, shared data environments
Ability to operate within a structured PMO and report into an external program manager
Strong stakeholder communication across technical and business audiences
Available to start July 1, 2026 and commit through December 31, 2026
Able to travel to Rockville, MD every other week

Preferred Qualifications

Life sciences, pharmaceutical, or GxP-regulated environment experience
Familiarity with 21 CFR Part 11 or Computer System Validation (CSV) frameworks
Local to Maryland, DC metro, or Northern Virginia

What This Role Is Not

Not the overall program manager -- a prime contractor PM owns that seat
Not a hands-on engineering or configuration role
Not a compliance or validation specialist -- infrastructure PM background is the core requirement
