About the role
This is a highly cross-functional, customer-facing role where you will combine structured program leadership with technical delivery coordination, partnering closely with Forward Deployed Engineers, Agent Architects, Product, Sales, Solution Engineering, and partner organizations to drive successful enterprise AI transformations.
Areas of Ownership
Enterprise Delivery Leadership - Own end-to-end delivery across scope, timeline, budget, quality, risks, and dependencies for enterprise AI deployments. Lead implementations from SOW kickoff through design, integration, UAT, production go-live, and hypercare. Drive execution across cross-functional delivery pods consisting of Forward Deployed Engineers, Agent Architects, and partner teams. Maintain project governance across project plans, RAID logs, milestone tracking, risk management, change requests, and escalation handling. Proactively identify delivery risks, resource constraints, and implementation blockers while driving alignment across stakeholders.
Customer & Stakeholder Management - Serve as the primary delivery contact for enterprise customer stakeholders, including executive sponsors and technical leaders. Translate business objectives into structured implementation plans with clear ownership, milestones, and success criteria. Lead governance meetings, executive updates, steering committees, UAT reviews, and go-live readiness discussions. Manage customer escalations and maintain delivery momentum across complex, high-visibility programs. Partner closely with Engagement Management post-go-live to support long-term adoption and expansion opportunities.
Technical & Cross-Functional Coordination - Coordinate technical delivery across integrations, infrastructure, environments, testing, and deployment readiness. Partner closely with Product, Sales, Solution Engineering, Support, and Deployment Strategists to ensure smooth customer execution. Support pre-sales activities including delivery scoping, resource estimation, SOW reviews, and implementation risk assessment. Manage co-delivery execution with SIs, GSIs, BPOs, and external implementation partners. Ensure technical and operational dependencies are aligned across all delivery workstreams.
Delivery Excellence & Operational Rigor - Apply Agile, Waterfall, or Hybrid methodologies based on customer needs and implementation complexity. Drive consistency across delivery governance, implementation standards, documentation, runbooks, and operational processes. Ensure compliance, security, and data governance requirements are incorporated into delivery planning. Mentor junior TPMs and help establish scalable delivery best practices across the broader organization.
