Job Description

Apex Systems is currently hiring a Project/Program Manager (Cross Functional Software Delivery) to join a growing client in Greenwood Village, CO.

Term: Contract through 2026, potential to extend and convert to FTE in the future

Location: Greenwood Village, CO

Onsite Requirement: 4 days onsite, 1 day remote per week

Pay range: $65-75/hr

Our client is launching a dynamic new program that spans three distinct systems and cross-functional teams. This initiative will evolve throughout the year, delivering multiple phases of value to our users. We’re looking for a Program Manager who thrives in ambiguity, brings clarity to complexity, and knows how to drive outcomes across diverse teams.

What You’ll Do

• Navigate and align three different development ecosystems—each with its own rhythm, tools, and culture.
• Establish shared nomenclature and process clarity across teams.
• Document evolving processes and track progress across systems.
• Facilitate meetings that matter—drawing people in, clarifying priorities, and resolving blockers.
• Push teams forward with empathy and urgency: “Here’s what we’re solving. Can it be done by X? If not, what’s blocking us?”
• Organize architecture documentation in tools like Confluence or Chalk.
• Visualize timelines and dependencies using Lucid chart, Jira, or Trello.
• Report status daily to leadership via PowerPoint and other formats.
• Create project plans and track deliverables across multiple platforms.
• Partner with teams that haven’t worked together before—guiding collaboration and surfacing risks.

What You Bring

• 7-10+ years of experience in program or project management for software development initiatives.
• Proven ability to lead complex, multi-team efforts in large enterprise environments.
• Deep familiarity with SDLC and product development lifecycles (discovery, refinement, development, QA, delivery).
• A business-first mindset—focused on user impact and delivery outcomes.
• Exceptional communication skills: able to cut through confusion and clarify next steps.
• Highly organized and detail-oriented: you track everything and follow through.
• Courage to escalate appropriately and partner with teams to resolve issues.
• Experience as a Scrum Master who evolved into Program Management is a plus.

You’ll Excel if you…

• Love bringing structure to chaos.
• Can partner with teams that “do things their own way” and guide them toward shared goals.
• Ask the right questions to uncover dependencies and risks.
• See the big picture while managing the smallest details.
