About operations at ApTask

Operations roles at ApTask cover program management, PMO, business analysis, transformation, and change-management positions across enterprise clients. We place operators who translate strategy into delivery — PMPs, Scrum Masters, agile coaches, Six Sigma black belts, and change-management practitioners certified in Prosci or the client's preferred framework. Candidates are validated against the specific enterprise tooling the client runs (ServiceNow, Jira Portfolio, Clarity, Planview) and their prior track record in comparable-scale programs, not generic delivery experience.

What happens after you apply.

  1. 1. Verified profile

    Submit your résumé and complete the ApTask identity + skills verification. We check right-to-work, background, and technical calibration once — never resell or re-verify — so future roles surface faster.

  2. 2. Recruiter calibration call

    Within one business day, the recruiter who owns this requisition reviews your profile against the client's specific stack, arrangement, and start-date requirements. You'll hear back either way — no ghosting.

  3. 3. Client interview

    If your profile is a fit, we present you to the hiring team. Most clients run 2-3 interview stages: hiring-manager screen, technical panel, and final. We prep you with the exact scorecard criteria before each round.

  4. 4. Offer + onboarding

    On acceptance, you're hired directly by the client and join their payroll and benefits. Your recruiter stays your point of contact through onboarding.

Questions candidates ask about this role

Is the Senior Principal Infrastructure Architect (Backstage Platform) role hybrid or on-site?

This role is hybrid. Candidates work on-site at the client's Jersey City, NJ office two to three days per week, with the remaining days remote. Exact office days are set by the hiring manager and can shift during onboarding and major project milestones. The recruiter will confirm the current cadence before you interview.

Is this a permanent role?

Yes — this is a full time direct-hire position with the client. On offer acceptance, you onboard directly onto the client's payroll and benefits. ApTask's role is placement only; the recruiter stays in touch for the first 90 days as a check-in, but your day-to-day relationship is with the client's hiring manager.
