- Enterprise platform optimization. Helping HHS make better use of enterprise platforms by identifying shared needs across Divisions, shaping platform and integration strategies, establishing scalable patterns, and supporting adoption of shared services.
- Modern digital services and applications. Leading multidisciplinary teams that design, build, launch, and continuously improve production-ready digital services and applications — from early discovery and prototypes through enterprise-scale implementation and ongoing operations.
You’ll own one or more workstreams and flex between strategic product leadership and hands-on delivery. Depending on the initiative, you may help define an emerging enterprise platform strategy, conduct discovery with HHS Divisions, turn an operational problem into a product roadmap, guide a prototype toward production, or lead the continued development of an existing digital service.
What to know going in
This is not a role where every project arrives with a defined product, backlog, technical architecture, or implementation plan.
Some workstreams will begin with questions like: What problem are we actually trying to solve? Which HHS Divisions need this capability? Should this be a shared enterprise service or a Division-specific solution? What already exists? What should we standardize? What should we build? And what should happen first?
Others will involve existing applications that already have users and stakeholders and need to move quickly through feature development, integration, launch, adoption, and ongoing improvement.
You’ll need to be comfortable operating at both levels.
At the enterprise level, you may work with architects, engineers, platform owners, and HHS stakeholders to understand how platforms; identify opportunities for shared services and tenant integration; define priorities and adoption strategies; and translate technical possibilities and constraints into decisions leaders can act on.
At the product level, you’ll work closely with designers, researchers, and engineers to turn user and operational needs into working software. Current and emerging application work may include enterprise mentoring, security tooling and analytics, employee onboarding, and other internal digital services.
Across both areas, speed matters. You should be comfortable learning enough to act, showing early work, testing assumptions, and refining the approach as the team learns rather than waiting for perfect information before moving forward.
