About the Role
The Senior Manager, Professional Services leads a team of Contact Center Delivery Engineers and Engineer Leads responsible for delivering CCaaS implementations to enterprise customers. This role owns delivery quality and consistency across the team's portfolio, develops and enforces standardized delivery methodology, and represents Professional Services in cross-functional planning with Sales, Customer Success, Support, and Product Management. It is a people-management and program-leadership role, accountable for team performance, delivery outcomes across multiple concurrent enterprise engagements, and the maturity of the Professional Services delivery practice as it scales.
Responsibilities
- Team Leadership
- Manage, coach, and develop a team of Delivery Engineers and Engineer Leads delivering CCaaS implementations for North American enterprise customers.

- Set and monitor individual and team goals aligned to delivery quality, customer satisfaction, and utilization targets.
- Manage shift coverage and workload distribution across the team, ensuring adequate support for North American business hours.
- Delivery Standards & Methodology
- Own and evolve a standardized, documented delivery methodology (project plans, requirements templates, testing/sign-off processes) and drive team adherence to it.
- Establish and maintain repeatable delivery assets — code libraries, configuration templates, standard SOWs — to reduce delivery time and variability across engagements.
- Monitor delivery quality across the team's active projects; identify and resolve at-risk engagements before they escalate.
- Cross-Functional & Executive Engagement

- Business & Practice Development
- Contribute to the development of new Professional Services offerings and supporting artifacts (SOW templates, delivery playbooks, best-practice guides).
- Evaluate and champion the use of AI within contact center delivery — both AI-related product capabilities being implemented for customers and AI tooling to improve the team's own delivery efficiency (e.g., automated documentation, code/config generation, QA).
