GMP Project Manager / Scrum

Our biopharmaceutical client is seeking an experienced project manager to support a large data architecture and systems-integration program in a GMP-regulated environment. This person will support work involving requirements, data flows, interfaces, change controls, SDLC, integration testing, qualification, and delivery readiness. The Project Managers will own defined workstreams, project schedules, actions, risks, dependencies, and cross-functional coordination with other teams. The program uses hybrid Agile / Waterfall methodology, combining iterative execution with structured schedules, phase gates, validation activities, and release milestones. Jira and Confluence will be used for planning and traceability, but the primary focus is practical project execution, coordination, and delivery.
