TL;DR · Portfolio Analyst, Autonomy

The Portfolio Analyst-Autonomy joins the Technology, Digital and Data team to manage the cross-program CI portfolio. This role involves synthesizing fragmented roadmap, delivery, and technical-review information into a coherent view for Atlas and the broader CI portfolio. The analyst will maintain portfolio intelligence, identify program interactions, and prepare executive artifacts that translate complex risks and dependencies into clear decision-ready scenarios. Key responsibilities include analyzing how supplier, procurement, and customer-learning outcomes affect milestones and maintaining traceability among objectives and features. Candidates must possess skills in strategic planning, data analysis, and stakeholder management within complex technical environments. Required tools include Azure DevOps, Power BI, Microsoft Project, Excel, PowerPoint, Confluence, and PPM. The role addresses the challenge of construction autonomy by integrating data from connected assets to build intelligent, scalable machine systems.

What you'll do

  • Maintain a cross-program portfolio view of active, planned, and unresolved work with clear ownership and milestone context.
  • Synthesize roadmaps to identify program interactions, sequencing implications, shared capabilities, dependencies, and gaps.
  • Prepare executive artifacts that translate complex delivery, risk, and capacity data into clear implications and decisions.
  • Produce portfolio scenarios and trend analyses to support prioritization and start-stop-continue-defer recommendations.
  • Analyze how partner, supplier, and customer-learning outcomes affect portfolio milestones and executive commitments.
  • Support integrated roadmap governance by maintaining traceability among objectives, requirements, epics, and controlled changes.
  • Drive intake alignment by analyzing value, capacity, affordability, and cross-program consequences for incoming demand.
  • Develop reusable analytical methods to improve the consistency and traceability of executive reporting.

What we're looking for

  • Knowledge of tactical and strategic planning techniques to connect near-term activities with multi-year roadmaps and business objectives.
  • Ability to organize and interpret information across multiple complex digital programs, technical domains, and workstreams.
  • Ability to synthesize qualitative and quantitative information into credible trends, scenarios, and executive insights.
  • Knowledge of roadmap, milestone, dependency, RAID, change-control, and governance concepts used across complex portfolios.
  • Ability to work across Product, Engineering, Architecture, Finance, Procurement, and leadership teams without direct authority.
  • Ability to produce concise, structured, and executive-ready narratives, roadmaps, and presentation materials.
  • Experience performing portfolio, program, strategy, or decision-support analysis across multiple technical programs (preferred).
  • Working knowledge of Azure DevOps, Power BI, Microsoft Project, Excel, PowerPoint, Confluence, or comparable tools (preferred).
