The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Customer Value Engineer to join Planview’s Customer organization in the DACH region. This customer-facing role sits within the Chief Customer Officer organization and connects revenue strategy, solution design, implementation readiness, and measurable customer outcomes.

You’ll partner with Account Executives and Customer Value Advisors to lead value-led discovery, translate strategic priorities into Planview solution architectures, and build the technical, operational, and business case for investment. You’ll also support technical demonstrations, proofs of value, and implementation planning that clearly connect Planview’s capabilities to customer outcomes.

Beyond the sales process, you’ll partner with Professional Services and Customer Value Advisors to validate feasibility, align scope and success measures, and create a clear handoff into implementation and ongoing value management. This role is designed for an expert practitioner-advisor who can move comfortably between executive conversations, technical solutioning, implementation realities, and cross-functional decision-making.

Who are you?

You bring strong technical fluency in work and resource management, portfolio planning, enterprise agile, or related disciplines, combined with the business acumen to connect product capabilities to measurable customer outcomes.

You are comfortable discussing API integrations, solution architecture, organizational change, and executive priorities in the same conversation. Your experience with delivery and implementation teams enables you to translate business outcomes into executable scope while balancing customer commitments with operational realities.

You ask strong diagnostic questions, design proof-of-concept approaches, and deliver compelling demonstrations that build confidence in both the solution and the path to value.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with Account Executives on customer discovery and business impact assessments, translating objectives and pain points into a value-centric opportunity narrative.
• Lead value workshops, proof-of-concept planning, and technical demonstrations for executive sponsors, business process owners, and technical stakeholders.
• Partner with Professional Services to validate feasibility, implementation readiness, dependencies, scope, sequencing, and timelines.
• Support pre-implementation planning to embed value architecture and success measures into delivery.
• Create clear handoffs from opportunity to implementation and ongoing value management, ensuring Customer Value Advisors have the context needed to carry the value story forward.
• Bridge customer-validated outcomes and implementation, identifying misalignment early and helping Sales and Professional Services course-correct.
• Partner with Professional Services leadership on value realization planning, including adoption milestones and early usage patterns.
• Serve as a thought partner to Sales on complex opportunities requiring business-outcome alignment, competitive positioning, or stakeholder consensus.
• Maintain strong knowledge of Planview capabilities, market trends, customer use cases, implementation patterns, and value-delivery practices across portfolio management, enterprise agile, value stream management, enterprise architecture, and product management.

What You’ll Bring

• 6+ years of experience with work and resource management platforms or related experience in enterprise agile, portfolio management, business process management, or organizational transformation.
• Demonstrated ability to engage C-level stakeholders on organizational capability, process maturity, and business transformation.
• Experience leading business impact assessments, value proposition development, proof-of-concept design, and technical demonstrations.
• Strong business acumen, including an understanding of finance, organizational change, and executive decision-making.
• Ability to translate between technical and business contexts, connecting architecture to strategic outcomes.
• Excellent communication and facilitation skills.
• Experience partnering with implementation, services, and operational teams to turn customer outcomes into executable delivery plans.
• Previous Value Engineering or Solution Consulting experience is a bonus.
• Management consulting, business process improvement, or organizational effectiveness experience is a strong plus.
• Certification or demonstrated expertise in a relevant domain such as SAFe, portfolio management, value stream management, or organizational agility is a plus.
• Fluency in German and English is required, with strong written and verbal communication skills.

Whether you have some or all of these qualifications, we want to hear from you if you believe your background and experience could be a fit.
