Project Tech Lead
Give your project technical leadership to drive productivity and results.
How We Can Help
You can’t rely on a project manager (PM) alone to lead an analytics project. A myriad of risks – technical and organizational – can derail analytics initiatives. It takes an experienced hand to identify risks and issues, then navigate through them. Here some ways we can assist:
- Provide technical leadership to a development team. For small teams, we can provide light PM oversight in addition to deep technical leadership. On larger teams, we’ll usually pair with a dedicated PM.
- Identify and mitigate project risks.
- Keep the project moving at a productive, steady pace.
- Partner with business stakeholders to streamline requirements.
- Engage with your data governance, security, and application teams.
- Develop and implement testing and QA strategy.
- Develop and implement DevOps strategy.
