The Role
The CSDO is accountable for transforming and leading a unified, enterprise-scale services and delivery organization across a diverse portfolio of acquired products and business units. This role is responsible for modernizing how Versaterm implements, supports, and scales its solutions - evolving from product-centric delivery silos to an integrated, flexible, and repeatable operating model. Equally important, the CSDO will champion the strategic adoption of AI across the services organization—deploying intelligent automation, AI-assisted implementation tooling, and AI-powered customer support capabilities to improve speed-to-value, reduce manual effort, and deliver more proactive, data-driven customer experiences. Central to this mandate is building a high-performing, adaptable talent model that enables greater mobility, skill development, and capability sharing across adjacent products and customer needs.
