Qualifications

Responsibilities

• Own the delivery. End-to-end. Scope, timeline, team structure, quality, outcome. You're the single point of accountability the client relies on.
• Design how it gets delivered. Shape the delivery approach for complex data and AI engagements — define the delivery plan, phase the work, structure the team, and manage dependencies across data engineering, analytics, and AI workstreams.
• Provide technical advisory across the engagement — Guide our mid-market clients and teams on our offerings, technical implementation, and the underlying Google Cloud services, with a deep understanding of each client's existing environment and architecture.
• Be the client's trusted delivery partner. You're the face of the engagement. Lead status reviews, manage expectations, navigate trade-offs in real time.
• Get solutions into clients' hands fast. Stand up the delivery, mobilize the team, and drive execution from day one.
• Lead across borders. Coordinate onshore delivery leadership with offshore engineering teams.
• Drive quality and outcomes. Establish delivery governance, define checkpoints, track progress against commitments.
