Technical Transition Coordinator

About the Role

Are you a strategic orchestrator who thrives at the intersection of complex infrastructure and large-scale organizational change? As a Technical Transition Coordinator at Talentroots, you are the conductor of a high-stakes migration. Our client is renewing its managed services contracts, covering cloud, network, and monitoring, and you are the key to making this transition seamless.

• Risk & Issue Management: Identify transition risks and develop proactive mitigation strategies. You track, escalate, and resolve blockers that could impact service stability or timelines.
• Documentation & Compliance: Maintain accurate asset inventories and verify that all operational documentation is complete and compliant with security and governance requirements.
• Service Continuity: Work closely with operations to prevent disruptions. You monitor early-life support after go-live and coordinate system validation post-transition.
