Chief Technology Officer and Division Director
The Human Resources Research Organization (HumRRO) is a non-profit leader in applied research, evaluation, and analytics in the arenas of assessment for employment, student, military, and professional credentialing and licensing. We work with federal and state government agencies, private sector organizations, and professional associations.
HumRRO is seeking a Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to lead a division responsible for all our technology functions.

In partnership with HumRRO's technology managers, the CTO will maintain and advance HumRRO's strategic technology vision as well as the corporate strategies designed to deliver on that vision. The CTO is responsible for developing the technology budget including planning for infrastructure investment, operations and maintenance, and Internal Research and Development (IR&D). They remain well informed of emerging technology trends and the relevant marketplace and they consider these in anticipating the future technology-related needs of the organization and our clients.
The CTO works with the President and other corporate officers to set company policy and corporate goals, to ensure HumRRO's business health, and to carry out strategic plans. The CTO also works closely with the President on all technology matters, keeping the President informed while actively advising on decisions and actions to be taken.
