Job description

Job Description

We're hiring a senior, customer-facing Lead Technical Consultant to operate with authority across the full customer lifecycle—owning pre‑sales solutioning and commercial scoping for complex, multi‑country pursuits and leading end‑to‑end technical delivery for our most strategic customers. This is a hybrid role that blends solution consulting (pre‑sales) with implementation leadership (delivery). You'll partner closely with Sales, Customer Success, Product, Security/Legal (as needed), and our implementation/integration teams to design the right solution, produce credible estimates and customer‑ready artifacts, and drive technical readiness through go‑live and hypercare. You'll also act as the practice‑level technical authority, providing technical oversight, quality assurance, and escalation support across multiple projects—not just your own.

About the role

Lead complex pre‑sales pursuits: run discovery, qualify fit, define solution direction, and present architecture options/tradeoffs with executive credibility.

Own commercial scoping for strategic deals: define scope boundaries, assumptions, dependencies, risks, and change‑control approach; build effort estimates across integration, mapping, testing, cutover, and hypercare.

Create customer‑facing deliverables: solution overviews, integration diagrams, rollout/resourcing plans, risk registers, SOWs/exhibits, and technical RFP/RFI responses.

Lead end‑to‑end technical delivery: from discovery through go‑live for large‑scale, multi‑country e‑invoicing programs; drive integration approach, data mapping, testing readiness, and cutover planning.

Drive integration architecture and readiness: recommend ERP‑to‑cloud connectivity (API/HTTPS/SFTP), define end‑to‑end data flows (acknowledgements, retries, error handling, monitoring), and align on security (certs, auth, IP allowlists, encryption) across DEV/TEST/PROD.

Be the escalation and quality bar: troubleshoot high‑severity issues, review/validate technical deliverables from project teams, and ensure clean pre‑sales‑to‑delivery handoffs.

Scale the practice: standardize patterns and delivery standards; mentor consultants; build reusable assets (templates, estimating models, reference architectures, discovery checklists, playbooks). Are the person teams rely on for the hardest technical and delivery judgment calls. Have built repeatable assets (estimating models, templates, integration playbooks) that improved delivery efficiency. Enjoy shaping methodology and raising standards across a growing implementation practice.

About You

You're a senior consultant who can be equally credible in front of executives and technical architects, and you thrive in ambiguous, high‑stakes environments where scoping accuracy and delivery quality matter. 10 years hands‑on experience in ERP implementation and/or integration delivery in B2B enterprise environments (SAP or Oracle strongly preferred). Proven ability to lead complex, multi‑workstream, multi‑country programs from discovery through go‑live. Deep experience designing and overseeing ERP integrations with external platforms (architecture, delivery oversight, troubleshooting at scale). Strong understanding of O2C and P2P processes and how they translate into invoicing/compliance requirements across geographies. Strong working knowledge of integration patterns/tech: APIs, HTTPS, SFTP, web services, middleware. Comfortable with enterprise data formats: XML, JSON, CSV, EDI (mapping, validation, enrichment). Demonstrated pre‑sales capability: discovery, scoping, estimating, SOW authoring, and technical inputs to RFP/RFI responses. Excellent communication skills with a track record of producing polished customer‑facing deliverables. Experience in e‑invoicing, tax compliance, regulatory reporting, or compliance‑driven integration programs. SAP functional/technical background (FI/SD/MM) or Oracle (Financials/SCM). Experience influencing packaging/pricing inputs and supporting complex deal cycles. Familiarity with international tax processes and multi‑country compliance mandates.
