About the Role
We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Technical Project Manager to lead the implementation of a large-scale Vidya Samiksha Kendra (VSK) initiative focused on transforming education governance through technology. This is a high-impact, multi-stakeholder program aimed at building an integrated, AI-enabled digital infrastructure for data-driven decision-making, monitoring, and service delivery in the education sector.
You will serve as the central coordination point across government stakeholders, technology partners, and implementation teams—ensuring strategic alignment, timely execution, and compliance with technical and administrative requirements.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end project management of the Vidya Samiksha Kendra (VSK) implementation across all core modules, including data lake infrastructure, dashboards, and user-facing platforms.
- Coordinate with government stakeholders and cross-functional departments such as MIS, Finance, Academic Services, and IT to ensure timely execution, alignment, and compliance with defined objectives.
- Oversee the execution of a cloud-native, modular technology architecture, collaborating with backend, DevOps, and data engineering teams on real-time ingestion, metadata management, and API-driven integrations.
- Develop and track comprehensive project plans, including workstreams, milestones, deliverables, risk mitigation, and inter-team dependencies.
- Serve as a bridge between technical teams and non-technical stakeholders, translating functional needs into technical specifications and ensuring shared understanding.
- Manage documentation, reviews, and progress reporting through dashboards, reports, and presentations for decision-makers and project governance bodies.
Key Requirements
- 4–6 years of professional experience in project management roles, with at least 3 years in government or public-sector implementations.
- Demonstrated experience managing multi-stakeholder government projects, especially involving data platforms or education-sector digital infrastructure.
- Exposure to higher education systems or edtech solutions is highly desirable.
- Strong understanding of modern technology stacks, backend architectures, data lake infrastructure, ETL pipelines, and API-first systems.
- Ability to speak fluently with tech teams (developers, engineers, architects) as well as build trust with government officials and education leaders.
- Proficient in creating and managing Gantt charts, agile boards, milestone trackers, and risk registers.
- Excellent communication, documentation, and leadership skills.
Preferred Qualifications
- Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Education Technology, Public Policy, or a related field.
- PMP/PRINCE2 or Agile/Scrum certification is an added advantage.
- Familiarity with cloud-native tools, DevSecOps practices, or AI-based governance systems is a plus.
What You’ll Gain
- A chance to work on one of India’s most ambitious, digitally unified education governance initiatives, built on the proven success of data-driven models like the Vidya Samiksha Kendra (VSK).
- The opportunity to drive policy-aligned technology interventions that will impact millions of learners and hundreds of institutions across the state.
- Hands-on experience managing a high-visibility, multi-crore public sector program, with direct coordination across key government departments and leadership bodies.
- Exposure to cutting-edge work in cloud-native infrastructure, education data platforms, and AI-enabled public governance systems.
