Track sprint progress, risks, dependencies, impediments, and delivery status using Azure DevOps Boards. Support post-deployment validation by executing or coordinating functional testing, validating delivered capabilities against acceptance criteria, documenting defects, and coordinating issue resolution. Support Change Control Board (CCB) activities by preparing change requests, documenting business and technical impacts, and tracking approvals. Maintain complete documentation of requirements, solution decisions, risks, assumptions, dependencies, issues, and action items. Assist government stakeholders in evaluating enhancement requests, assessing implementation feasibility, and identifying opportunities for continuous platform improvement. Prepare recurring and ad hoc reports, dashboards, metrics, and executive status briefings for government leadership. Apply an AI-aware mindset by identifying opportunities where AI-enabled capabilities may improve business workflows, content management, analytics, knowledge management, or customer experience, consistent with customer policy and approved technologies.
