Rakuten

Project Mgr

Linux

About this role

This role sits in Rakuten Life’s Information Systems organization and leads the renewal of core systems supporting its life-insurance business. The program spans business operations, applications, infrastructure, data, migration, operations, security, risk management and vendors rather than a single development project. It connects business and IT planning across executives, business teams, IT and external partners.

The program manager defines scope, roadmaps, milestones, deliverables and governance, then drives decisions, dependencies, risks, quality, costs and schedules. Work includes migration rehearsals, cutover planning, business-impact analysis, quality gates, architecture and design reviews, testing and acceptance criteria. The environment includes Windows and Linux, on-premises and cloud systems, and multi-vendor delivery. Required qualifications include 10+ years in IT, systems development, IT consulting or an SIer; large-scale system renewal or multi-project program-management experience; project and stakeholder control; multi-vendor management; systems-lifecycle knowledge; and reporting to steering committees or executives.
