RCH Solutions is seeking an experienced Technical Project Manager (TPM) to lead and coordinate initiatives across software and cloud engineering teams supporting high-performance computing (HPC) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) modernization.
This role is not a hands-on engineering position, but requires a strong technical understanding of cloud-based workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure automation to effectively manage complex, cross-functional projects. The TPM will ensure alignment between engineering teams, platform stakeholders, and research scientists, driving timely delivery and operational excellence.
Specific Focuses and Responsibilities Include:

- Track and communicate project progress, risks, and dependencies to key stakeholders and leadership.
- Coordinate cross-team activities between engineering providers, the platform team, and scientific end users.
- Manage change control, documentation, and stakeholder reporting throughout the project lifecycle.
- Support sprint execution, issue resolution, and alignment across global time zones (UK and US East Coast).
Technical Coordination & Oversight
- Oversee and align efforts related to:
- Building and maintaining HPC and cloud-based workflows.
- Migrating legacy HPC workflows to Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
- Developing and optimizing CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps).
- Implementing Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) practices using Terraform.
- Partner with the platform team to resolve gaps in permission management, data access, workflow execution, and automation.
- Ensure that engineering teams adhere to best practices, including standardization, reproducibility, and maintainability across codebases.
- Coordinate ad-hoc technical support for scientists requiring assistance with workflow integration or troubleshooting.
Essential Qualifications
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technical field.
- Proven experience as a Technical Project Manager managing complex, multi-disciplinary engineering or cloud initiatives.
- Strong understanding of cloud platforms (preferably GCP), HPC workflows, and DevOps methodologies.
- Familiarity with CI/CD tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps) and Infrastructure-as-Code principles (Terraform).
- Excellent organizational, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
- Demonstrated success working with distributed teams across multiple time zones.
- Experience with Agile or Scrum project delivery frameworks.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience managing projects within pharmaceutical, biotech, or scientific research environments.
- Technical literacy to understand engineering discussions, dependencies, and integration points.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a focus on risk mitigation and delivery assurance.
- Project management certification (PMP, PRINCE2, or Agile certification) a plus.
