We are currently seeking a PMO Lead to join our team in Los Angeles, California (US-CA), United States (US).

NTT DATA is seeking a PMO Lead to support the LAUSD AWS Transformation Migration program in Los Angeles, California. This client-facing role requires a highly organized delivery leader with strong technical understanding of AWS cloud migration, infrastructure modernization, application migration planning, security, networking, dependency management, and operational transition. The ideal candidate must have a proven record of success leading complex technology programs, building trust with customer stakeholders, communicating clearly with executives and technical teams, and making sound, timely decisions in high-pressure situations where issues must be assessed quickly and resolved without losing delivery momentum.

This role is based in Los Angeles, California and requires the resource to be in the LAUSD office two to three days per week, with onsite participation in customer meetings, governance sessions, technical workshops, and other program-related activities as required.

In this role you will be responsible for:

• Lead PMO activities for the LAUSD AWS Transformation Migration program, including governance, integrated planning, workstream coordination, schedule management, risk tracking, issue resolution, and executive status reporting.
• Coordinate across LAUSD stakeholders, NTT DATA delivery teams, AWS architects, application owners, infrastructure teams, security teams, operations teams, vendors, and third-party partners to maintain alignment and accountability.
• Develop and maintain integrated migration plans, dependency logs, RAID logs, decision logs, cutover plans, status dashboards, and executive-ready program materials.
• Partner with AWS architects and technical leads to track application readiness, infrastructure readiness, security requirements, migration waves, data dependencies, testing plans, cutover activities, and post-migration stabilization.
• Facilitate program governance meetings, technical working sessions, customer briefings, risk reviews, migration readiness reviews, steering committee preparation, and onsite customer meetings at LAUSD locations as required.
• Provide confident, fact-based communication when urgent decisions are required, including clearly presenting options, impacts, risks, tradeoffs, and recommended actions.
• Serve as a customer-facing escalation point for schedule conflicts, technical blockers, dependency gaps, migration risks, and cross-team coordination issues.
• Drive accountability across matrixed teams while maintaining a professional, calm, transparent, and solution-oriented approach with LAUSD leadership and delivery stakeholders.
