Job description

W2 only, no C2C, must be authorized to work in the US (both now and in the future).

Implementation Lead - NYC (Direct Hire) - Remote in Brooklyn, NY.

While the company operates remotely, this role is intended for someone based in the NYC area, for occasional in person collaboration.

What You’ll Do

• Serve as the primary client-facing lead throughout the implementation lifecycle, building trusted relationships with stakeholders and keeping projects moving forward.
• Own project communication, status updates, timelines, dependencies, risks, and overall coordination across internal and external teams.
• Lead discovery sessions and implementation workshops to understand client goals, operational processes, requirements, and pain points.
• Translate business and functional requirements into clear workflows and help determine how the platform should fit within the client’s existing environment.
• Identify gaps, risks, and implementation challenges early and drive solutions with the appropriate internal and client stakeholders.
• Partner closely with Product, Development, Support, leadership, and Go-to-Market teams to ensure client needs are understood and appropriately addressed.
• Navigate difficult or ambiguous client situations with confidence, bringing recommendations and a clear path forward rather than waiting for direction.
• Collaborate with technical team members throughout implementation and maintain a working understanding of the software development lifecycle.
• Help clients successfully adopt the platform by ensuring the solution works within their day-to-day operational processes.
• Contribute beyond project delivery when needed, including supporting product development, process improvement, and GTM initiatives as the company grows.

What You’ll Bring

• 3–5+ years of experience in implementation, project management, consulting, professional services, or a similar client-facing role.
• Experience implementing AI solutions and knowledge of cloud solutions.
• Strong experience managing external stakeholders and owning client relationships throughout complex projects.
• Ability to independently lead projects with limited oversight and create structure in an evolving environment.
• Experience gathering requirements, understanding business processes, and translating those needs into functional workflows.
• Strong problem-solving and critical-thinking skills with a bias toward action.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the confidence to lead challenging stakeholder conversations.
• Ability to communicate effectively across business users, executives, Product teams, and technical stakeholders.
• Working knowledge of the software development lifecycle and experience collaborating with development or technical teams.
• Familiarity with CRM, ERP, EMR/EHR, or other complex enterprise software environments is highly valuable.
• Experience in healthcare technology is especially relevant given the company’s current client base, along with a working understanding of privacy, security, compliance, and HIPAA.
• Comfort wearing multiple hats and contributing wherever needed within a small, fast-moving organization.
• An entrepreneurial mindset and genuine interest in building processes rather than simply inheriting them.
