Technical Support Administrator II (Bilingual)

StevenDouglas

<div>
 <p>
  <strong>
   Technical Project Coordinator
  </strong>
 </p>
 <p>
  Onsite &mdash; Downtown Houston, TX |
 </p>
 <p>
  <strong>
   POSITION SUMMARY
  </strong>
 </p>
 <p>
  The coordinator is the engine that keeps the program's day-to-day moving. A large part of the role is organizing and actively participating in client meetings and chasing the customer for the input, validation, and sign-off the program depends on. The Program Manager owns the overall schedule; this role supports it by maintaining the detailed task tracking and technical dependency map beneath it. Because engineers and task owners will be self-reporting status, the coordinator needs a strong enough technical orientation to understand what a deliverable actually requires &mdash; so that padded estimates, glossed-over dependencies, and sandbagged timelines don't go unchallenged. The role reports into Cavalry's delivery leadership and works closely with the Program Manager, SDM, and technical specialists.
  <strong>
   KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
  </strong>
 </p>
 <ul>
  <li>
   <strong>
    Client Meeting Facilitation &amp; Customer Follow-Through
   </strong>
   Organize, schedule, and actively participate in client meetings &mdash; scrums, working sessions, sprint retrospectives, monthly updates, and executive syncs.
  </li>
  <li>
   Capture decisions and action items, then relentlessly chase them to closure across both client and delivery teams. This is a large part of the role.
  </li>
  <li>
   Drive input, validation, and sign-off out of the customer &mdash; politely but persistently following up with stakeholders who are slow or unresponsive until the program gets what it needs.
  </li>
  <li>
   Manage the flow of information between client network/security/PMO teams and Cavalry delivery, keeping everyone working from the same facts.
  </li>
  <li>
   <strong>
    Detailed Task &amp; Technical Dependency Tracking
   </strong>
   Support the Program Manager &mdash; who owns the overall schedule &mdash; by maintaining the detailed task tracking beneath it and keeping it accurate and current.
  </li>
  <li>
   Own the technical dependency map: understand what must be completed before what, and surface dependencies that task owners have overlooked or glossed over.
  </li>
  <li>
   Reconcile competing views of the same work (e.g., client EPM vs. delivery-team Planner) and resolve discrepancies rather than just reporting both.
  </li>
  <li>
   Track task-level progress against commitments and flag slips early, before they roll up into schedule impact.
  </li>
  <li>
   <strong>
    Technical Orientation &mdash; Holding Task Owners Accountable
   </strong>
   Bring enough technical depth to follow the program's workstreams &mdash; SD-WAN, connectivity, ITSM, monitoring, firewall, and automation &mdash; and to understand what completing a given deliverable actually requires.
  </li>
  <li>
   Constructively challenge engineering estimates and status: recognize when a task is being padded, a dependency downplayed, or a timeline sandbagged, and press for the real picture.
  </li>
  <li>
   Ask informed follow-up questions so that vague or evasive status can't stand, and validate with the right SME before it reaches an executive.
  </li>
  <li>
   <strong>
    Status Reporting &amp; Executive Communications
   </strong>
   Produce clear, accurate, executive-grade status reports and contribute to executive briefing decks.
  </li>
  <li>
   Coordinate recurring reporting cadences (e.g., monitoring reports from SolarWinds/ThousandEyes) and ensure they land on time and on message.
  </li>
  <li>
   Turn technical detail into concise, executive-ready narratives without losing accuracy.
  </li>
  <li>
   <strong>
    Governance, Change &amp; Artifact Management
   </strong>
   Run the artifact review and approval workflow end to end: submission packages, SLA tracking, sign-off gates, and DocuSign coordination.
  </li>
  <li>
   Coordinate change submissions (CRQ/CAB) and ensure the right requests are raised in the right form.
  </li>
  <li>
   Maintain document control and version discipline (SharePoint), so the team and client always work from the current artifact.
  </li>
 </ul>
 <p>
  <strong>
   REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
  </strong>
 </p>
 <ul>
  <li>
   5+ years in project coordination, project management, or PMO roles supporting technical or infrastructure programs.
  </li>
  <li>
   Demonstrated success in a consulting, professional services, MSP, or IT service provider setting &mdash; working billable and client-facing, accountable to external stakeholders. This is a firm requirement, not a nice-to-have: strong coordinators whose experience is exclusively internal/in-house are not a fit for an embedded, client-facing consulting role.
  </li>
  <li>
   Strong command of coordination tooling: MS Project and/or Planner, Excel, PowerPoint, SharePoint, and ServiceNow (or a comparable ITSM platform).
  </li>
  <li>
   A self-starter comfortable organizing and running client meetings and persistently, diplomatically chasing stakeholders for input, validation, and sign-off &mdash; someone who follows up until things close rather than waiting for responses.
  </li>
  <li>
   Strong technical orientation &mdash; enough depth in networking/infrastructure to understand what a deliverable actually requires and to constructively challenge engineering estimates and status. Full engineering skills are not required, but a coordinator who takes technical status at face value is not a fit.
  </li>
  <li>
   Proven ability to produce executive-grade status reporting and communicate with senior stakeholders.
  </li>
  <li>
   Experience operating within formal governance/approval and change-control processes.
  </li>
  <li>
   Must be able to work onsite in downtown Houston on a full-time basis.
  </li>
 </ul>
 <p>
  <strong>
   PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
  </strong>
 </p>
 <ul>
  <li>
   Coordination experience on network, infrastructure, or cybersecurity programs; familiarity with SD-WAN, network monitoring (SolarWinds/ThousandEyes), and ITSM concepts.
  </li>
  <li>
   Experience in energy, utilities, midstream, or other critical-infrastructure sectors; awareness of NERC CIP and related regulatory drivers.
  </li>
  <li>
   Certifications: PMP, CAPM, CSM / PMI-ACP, or ITIL.
  </li>
  <li>
   Comfort with Agile/sprint delivery and tools such as Planner, Jira, or Azure DevOps.
  </li>
 </ul>
