Accenture Flex offers you the flexibility of local fixed-duration project-based work powered by Accenture, a leading global professional services company. Accenture is consistently recognized on FORTUNE's 100 Best Companies to Work For and Diversity Inc's Top 50 Companies For Diversity lists.
As an Accenture Flex employee, you will apply your skills and experience to help drive business transformation for leading organizations and communities. In addition to delivering innovative solutions for Accenture's clients, you will work with a highly skilled, diverse network of people across Accenture businesses who are using the latest emerging technologies to address today's biggest business challenges.
You will receive competitive rewards and access to benefits programs and world-class learning resources. Accenture Flex employees work in their local metro area onsite at the project, significantly reducing and/or eliminating the demands to travel.
Key Responsibilities:
Lead end-to-end delivery for the platform foundation workstream, covering cloud landing zones, hybrid connectivity, identity, and security control planes across Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
Own the workstream roadmap, milestones, RAID log, and dependency map; drive resolution across architecture, security, networking, and vendor teams.
Partner with senior architects to pressure-test designs covering ExpressRoute, FastConnect, BGP routing, VPN, NSGs, IAM, and zero-trust patterns — surface risks early and challenge assumptions before they reach production.
Manage cross-pillar and cross-vendor dependencies, including integration touchpoints with channel, data, and core banking platforms.
Run the operating rhythm for the workstream: standups, design reviews, steering committee prep, executive readouts, and PI / increment planning.
Build and deliver executive communications — status decks, risk briefings, decision memos — for senior client sponsors and engagement leadership. Translate technical depth into crisp business outcomes.
Drive resource planning, onboarding, and capacity management for the workstream pod, including FTE forecasting and skills coverage.
Track and report against budget, burn, schedule, and quality metrics; escalate variances with proposed remediation.
Champion delivery discipline — change control, environment management, cutover planning, and operational readiness — across the workstream.
This role will require 20% onsite in the office in Vienna, VA
Basic Qualifications
- 12–15 years of total experience, including a meaningful early-career foundation as a hands-on cloud infrastructure, networking, or security engineer before transitioning into project / program management.

- Familiarity with multi-cloud architectures spanning OCI and Azure, and with integration and data movement patterns (e.g., Oracle Integration Cloud, GoldenGate).
- Strong working fluency (sufficient to challenge designs and assess risk, though not hands-on day-to-day) across: Azure networking (VNETs, NSGs, route tables, private endpoints), hybrid connectivity (ExpressRoute, FastConnect, IPSec VPN), and BGP routing concepts including failover and multi-region design.
- Demonstrated understanding of cloud security controls: identity and access management (Azure AD, IAM, RBAC), key management, encryption, and network segmentation.
- Experience with Agile / SAFe delivery models, PI planning, and standard PM tooling (JIRA, ADO, Confluence, MS Project, or equivalent).
- Experience managing API, SaaS product delivery a plus
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience. High School Diploma / GED required.
Preferred Qualifications
- Hands-on experience with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), including core services (Compute, VCN, IAM, Object Storage), OCI networking constructs (DRG, FastConnect, Service Gateway), and security/governance patterns (compartments, policies, vaults).
- Prior experience as a cloud networking, security, or infrastructure engineer earlier in career — recency of hands-on work is not required, but depth of grounding is.
- Experience delivering large-scale cloud migration or core platform modernization programs in regulated industries (financial services, banking, insurance, healthcare).
- Familiarity with zero-trust architecture patterns and API security (OAuth, OpenID, mTLS).
