Roles & Resposibilities-
- Own project planning across one or more concurrent engagements — scope baseline, WBS, milestones, resource plan, and sprint calendar.

- Track progress across all workstreams; identify and resolve slippage before it impacts milestones.
- Manage Project team allocation across engagements; maintain workload balance and delivery coverage.
- Own delivery quality standards across all technical workstreams — architecture alignment, code quality gates, NFR compliance, and performance benchmarks.
- Review and approve technical artifacts (design documents, data models, integration specs) for completeness and quality before development proceeds.
- Ensure QA and testing cycles are thorough and quality-verified before handoff to UAT — not just scheduled, but validated.
- Identify and resolve technical risks and quality gaps proactively, before they surface in UAT or production.
- Own all CMMI Level 3 or higher process compliance across planning, execution, monitoring, and closure phases.
- Maintain mandatory process artifacts: plans, risk logs, status reports, change logs, and meeting minutes.
- Run internal delivery governance — milestone reviews, delivery sign-offs, change control board.

• Participate in process audits; identify and report deviations; drive corrective actions to closure.
- Reinforce process discipline within the delivery team without impeding velocity.
- Own project budget tracking across one or more engagements: actuals vs. plan, burn rate, and forecast to complete.
- Manage resource allocation and cost per project; flag budget risks before they breach thresholds.
- Coordinate with delivery leadership on staffing, onboarding, and off-boarding across concurrent engagements.
- Own the risk and issue register across all assigned engagements — log, track, escalate, and close with urgency.
- Manage cross-project dependencies and resource conflicts
