Summary:

Goldschmitt & Associates is seeking a Product Management Consultant to provide the hands-on planning, coordination, backlog, requirements, stakeholder, and delivery-management support needed to institutionalize product-management practices across Federal Student Aid.

The Product Management Consultant will focus on turning product priorities into organized, executable work. This individual will combine product-management fundamentals with strong project-management discipline to ensure priorities, decisions, dependencies, risks, actions, and delivery commitments remain visible and actively managed.

Job Duties and Responsibilities:
  • Support product owners in maintaining product roadmaps, delivery plans, backlogs, priorities, and release/capability plans
  • Facilitate backlog refinement, planning sessions, reviews, retrospectives, working sessions, and other product-delivery ceremonies

  • Coordinate activities across product, business, engineering, operations, security, architecture, data, and contractor teams
  • Track dependencies, assumptions, risks, issues, decisions, milestones, and readiness conditions

  • Facilitate requirements discussions and ensure business needs are accurately communicated to technical delivery teams
  • Track decisions and ensure actions are followed through to completion
  • Gather and synthesize stakeholder and user feedback for use in product prioritization
  • Prepare status reports, roadmap updates, dashboards, meeting materials, and leadership communications
  • Support development and tracking of product KPIs, delivery measures, and performance indicators
  • Identify blockers and escalate issues requiring Product SME, Executive Product SME, or Executive Program Manager intervention
  • Help establish repeatable templates, processes, playbooks, and working practices that FSA personnel can sustain independently
  • Support workshops, training, office hours, and hands-on mentorship activities

Necessary Skills and Knowledge:
  • Experience supporting complex IT or digital-service initiatives
  • Demonstrated experience with planning, requirements, backlog management, risk/issue tracking, stakeholder coordination, and status reporting
  • Working knowledge of Agile and product-management practices
  • Ability to organize complex work involving multiple teams and dependencies
  • Strong written communication, facilitation, documentation, and analytical skills
  • Ability to work effectively with business and technical stakeholders
Minimum Qualifications:
  • Possess at least 5 years of experience in product delivery, project management, business analysis, Agile delivery, technology consulting, or related work
  • Possess the ability to pass a 6C Public Trust investigation, including US citizenship
Preferred Qualifications:

  • Federal consulting experience

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
