Qualifications

• 5–8 years running enterprise software implementations, platform migrations, or technology transformation programs.
• Demonstrated track record of taking enterprise deployments live: you can speak to specific implementations you've owned, the obstacles you hit, and how you got to launch
• Strong technical intuition, demonstrated by STEM degree or equivalent technical background

• Own engagement success end-to-end: primary driver of customer deployments from late-stage sales handoff through launch and post-launch stabilization; ensure outcomes, timelines, and stakeholder alignment
• Lead discovery, scoping, and decisioning: translate fuzzy goals into crisp requirements, workflows, success metrics, and rollout plans; guide customers through tradeoffs, product constraints, and adoption choices
• Run the execution motion: hold a full book of concurrent deployments at different stages; coordinate internal teams and client stakeholders; keep cadence, risk tracking, and launch readiness current on every one
• Run the execution motion: maintain multi-threaded project plans under ambiguity; coordinate across internal teams and external stakeholders; create clear operating cadences, risk tracking, and launch readiness
• Configuration and launch: collaborate with product operations, engineering, and training teams to drive product configuration, data migration, launch, and successful adoption
• Support change management: partner with client leadership on communicating the change through their organization, and identify where workflows or incentives need to shift for adoption to stick
• Inform product development: bring net-new workflow and product requirements to Product/Engineering, grounded in scoping learnings, customer input, and real-world usage
• Contribute to the playbook: feed lessons from engagements into the processes and templates that improve speed and quality as we scale
• Support sales and expansion: participate in later-stage sales and pre-sales discovery to set up successful engagements; help scope realistic engagements and identify follow-on opportunities
• Attract top-tier talent to join our driven team
