• Establish clear ownership and deadlines for implementation activities.
• Track project progress and proactively identify schedule risks or resource constraints.
• Maintain centralized program-level visibility across customers with multiple concurrent studies.
• Facilitate implementation kickoff meetings, status meetings, working sessions, and internal coordination meetings.
• Serve as the primary operational point of contact for implementation schedules, deliverables, dependencies, and project status.
• Set and manage customer expectations regarding timelines, responsibilities, dependencies, and deliverables.
• Escalate issues appropriately while maintaining clear communication with the customer.
• Ensure customers have visibility into the overall status of multiple active studies or implementations.
• Coordinate implementation workload across Implementation Engineers and offshore resources.
• Maintain visibility into current and upcoming implementation demand.
• Work with leadership to identify capacity constraints before they affect customer commitments.
• Coordinate day-to-day work assignments with IgniteData's offshore resources.
• Track quality issues, rework, and recurring process gaps.
• Escalate quality, capacity, or delivery concerns to leadership.
• Maintain program-level risk, issue, action, and dependency tracking.
• Identify recurring implementation problems and recommend process improvements.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of project management, program management, implementation, or customer delivery experience.
• Experience managing multiple simultaneous customer-facing projects.
• Strong customer communication and stakeholder-management skills.

• Experience coordinating work across technical and nontechnical teams.
• Strong written communication and executive-status-reporting skills.
• Ability to operate effectively in a fast-growing environment where processes continue to evolve.
• Strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
• Ability to identify problems proactively rather than waiting for escalation.

• Experience managing software or data implementations.
• Experience working with offshore teams or external vendors.
• Experience coordinating data mapping, data integration, configuration, or technical implementation activities.
