Program management Development Program (PMDP) - Entry Level (Maryland)

National Security Agency/Central Security Service • Fort Meade, MD • 7h ago

Summary The National Security Agency relies on the skills of our acquisition, finance, and accounting professionals to support the internal infrastructure of a federal agency comparable in size and budget to Fortune 100 companies. Start a career where you become a steward of taxpayer dollars, seeking the greatest return that money can provide: a superior intelligence service for the safety and security of our nation. Responsibilities The Program Manager Development Program (PMDP) develops individuals who can successfully participate in and eventually lead current and future designated NSA/CSS programs in accordance with appropriate DoD and Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA) statutes, regulations, policies, and instructions governing Program Management. Historically, this function has been performed by Engineers, Computer Scientists, and other technically educated/trained personnel. The rapid advance of technology and its accompanying effect on DoD program development and management has highlighted the need for Program Managers (PM) with broad backgrounds who can work in, communicate with, and move effectively between the acquisition and technological worlds. PMDP aims to develop future National Security Agency (NSA) key leaders by providing guidance and opportunities for professionally broadening experiences and career progression. The PMDP is a 3-year program designed to develop new hires (GG 7-9) by providing direct program manager experience as well as developmental opportunities through formal classroom training, on-the-job training, and professional certifications. Participants complete defense acquisition training as well as National Cryptologic School (NCS) training in acquisition, systems engineering, leadership, and resource management. Each participant, assigned to one of the official NSA programs, completes four specific tour rotations based upon requirements, development gaps, and professional interest. As a Program Manager at the NSA, your responsibilities may include: - Establishing and managing cost, schedule and performance baselines for programs - Implementing best practices and processes to track progress of services and development of capabilities in terms of defined cost, schedule, and performance outcomes - Adjusting priorities and resource allocation based upon objective program performance data - Providing metrics and analysis to support forward-looking decision-making based on data - Establishing governance processes for program and related reviews - Providing program status reports and briefings to internal management, NSA senior leadership and government oversight officials in the DoD, ODNI, and Congress. This program will introduce program participants to the leadership skills necessary to enhance program stability, strengthen management accountability, and ensure effective use of all assigned resources in preparation for dynamic and robust careers within the Agency's workforce. Requirements Conditions of Employment Qualifications The qualifications listed are the minimum acceptable to be considered for the position.
