Job Description
Roles and Responsibilities: This role supports the digital vision to modernize contract processes within Defense & Systems, specifically the implementation of a third-party SaaS Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) solution that will replace fragmented tools and improve operational efficiency, compliance, and collaboration. Working under the direction of the product owner, this role supports operational maintenance of the current application, Salesforce, and evolves to support the future CLM solution once it is implemented. The position partners with product and functional teams to help execute the roadmap and strategy for contract management across the Federal and commercial/civil spaces. Project Management: Be part of transforming the future of Contract Management for Defense & Systems. Today's contract management process is fragmented: functional groups rely on multiple tools that create inefficiency, redundancy, and a lack of standardization across departments. A specialized CLM solution built for the unique contracting elements of the Federal and commercial/civil spaces will standardize processes, provide consistent reporting, and establish a unified toolset across D&S. In this role you will help execute the implementation strategy and roadmap, keeping the work aligned with business priorities under the direction of the product owner. Operational Support: You will support ongoing operations and enhancements within the current application, Salesforce. You will work with functional owners to determine business value, prioritize needs, and define requirements. You will write user stories and partner with Salesforce Admins to develop new functionality. Following implementation of the future CLM solution, you will transition to supporting operations, enhancements, and day-to-day support for that product. Visibility: Throughout, you will gain continuous exposure to senior leaders across the D&S DT team and the Contracts & Government Property organization, contributing to reliable system uptime and the delivery of modernized applications that support business growth and sustainability.
