About The Role
The Delivery Lead is responsible for complex, high-stakes customer implementations. This role leads a cross-functional trio alongside a Solutions Architect and Implementation Engineer, owning the end-to-end success of the program.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end success of complex, multi-product customer implementations.
- Develop and maintain comprehensive program plans that coordinate multiple workstreams, phases, and product deployments.
- Ensure all implementation activity stays on schedule, on scope, and aligned to delivery objectives.
- Coordinate across Implementation, Product, Engineering, Customer Success, and Support to ensure nothing falls through the cracks between teams.
- Serve as the primary delivery leader for enterprise customers throughout the implementation.
- Facilitate executive-level conversations on program progress, key decisions, and delivery strategy.
- Manage escalations with clarity and composure, maintaining customer confidence even when the program is under pressure.
- Own scope integrity across the program, identifying scope creep early, managing change control, and communicating tradeoffs to both the customer and internal leadership.
- Maintain a live risk register, surfacing risks before they become fires and driving resolution with urgency.
- Partner closely with the Solutions Architect to ensure the proposed solution is being executed as designed, ensuring the Implementation Engineer has what they need to execute technical workstreams on time.
- Identify misalignment between design and execution early and drive it to resolution.
- Serve as a product expert and trusted advisor to the customer throughout the implementation, guiding firms on how to configure and use the product effectively.
- Establish and own the operational rhythm of the program, establishing weekly syncs, milestone reviews, status reporting, and executive readouts.
Qualifications
- 6+ years in implementation, program management, or professional services delivery at a SaaS or enterprise software company.
- Proven experience managing multi-phase, multi-stakeholder implementation programs.
- Strong track record of executive-level customer communication and relationship management in a delivery context.
- Experience coordinating cross-functional delivery teams without direct management authority.
- Familiarity with technical implementation concepts, sufficient to hold technical workstreams accountable.
- PMP, PgMP, or equivalent program management certification is a plus, not a requirement.
- Prior experience in accounting technology, fintech, ERP, or practice management software is a meaningful differentiator.
