A consulting firm seeks a Technical Project Manager to lead modernization efforts in public sector cloud applications. Ideal candidates will have over 10 years of experience handling complex IT systems and leading business intelligence projects, preferably in a hybrid work environment. This role demands excellent communication and project management skills to deliver effective technological transformations.
Cloud SynApps is a fast-growing consulting and systems integration firm that focuses on cloud applications, primarily on Salesforce-based platforms. Cloud SynApps has its major operations in Canada, the USA, and India. We’ve actively built our Salesforce practice and have quickly grown into one of the strongest Systems Integrators within the Salesforce Public Sector space. While Public Sector is our passion, we are also expanding into other verticals, including Insurance and the Telcom space.
We are one of the largest Systems integrators for Vlocity (recently acquired by Salesforce) and Clariti Solutions (erstwhile BasicGov Applications) and have implemented these solutions for several municipal, provincial/state, federal, and public sector clients. Our consultants and associates have deep industry expertise and live by our core values. We also invest heavily in developing unique Salesforce-based solutions and accelerators, which, in our experience, are required by our clients.
We believe in full transparency in whatever we do for our clients and internally, working with our associates. We are quickly growing, and that brings additional responsibility to treat everyone with respect and dignity. Integrity is one of our most important and foundational values. We follow ethical principles and always acknowledge the value each associate, partner, and client brings to the table.
