  • Use data, observations, stakeholder feedback, and lessons learned to track progress, surface risks, recommend adjustments, and continuously improve delivery practices, change adoption, and business outcomes. 

  • Assess initiatives' change needs by identifying adoption risks, evaluating organizational readiness, and developing practical plans that support user readiness, sustained behavior change, and long-term adoption. 

  • Support the design and execution of change activities, including communications, training, stakeholder engagement, and resistance management, while building confidence, capability, and ownership within teams to sustain change beyond implementation.

  • Experience in finance, operations, entertainment, or corporate functions is a plus. 

  • Agile or change management certifications are preferred but not required. 

Preferred Capabilities 

  • Comfortable presenting to managers and leaders, synthesizing complex information into clear insights, and supporting decisions with sound analysis, thoughtful recommendations, and business judgment. 

  • Ability to balance delivery support with change enablement while maintaining focus on practical execution, measurable outcomes, and long-term adoption. Proactively identify opportunities to improve team effectiveness and business results.  

  • Demonstrates ownership and initiative by anticipating needs, organizing work effectively, managing multiple priorities, and delivering high-quality results with minimal direction. Consistently follows through to ensure work is completed, adopted, and delivers intended business value. 

  • Demonstrates learning agility by seeking feedback, adapting quickly to changing priorities, and continuously improving approaches, processes, and team outcomes.

With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google

  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
