  • Provide post‑implementation hyper‑care to ensure success before transitioning the account to the customer success team.
  • Interface with internal product and engineering resources to communicate customer impact and drive change.
  • Manage financial metrics and enable pre‑sales activities to support account expansion plans.
  • Anticipate customer needs and actively troubleshoot issues to accelerate time to value.
What You'll Need (required)
  • 3–5 years of experience as a program/project manager at a big‑four consulting firm or enterprise SaaS company.
  • In‑depth knowledge and experience implementing enterprise software applications such as WMS, YMS, ERP, CRM, or SCM.
  • Responsible for multiple projects at once, highly organized with a strong sense of urgency to meet deadlines.
  • Ability to work autonomously and lead large, geographically dispersed teams using indirect authority.
  • Experience working with cross‑functional teams and customer bases with travel up to 50% of the time (including possible international travel).
  • Effective communication and problem‑solving skills, customer focus, and results orientation.
  • Hands‑on experience implementing enterprise products within logistics facilities (distribution center, manufacturing center, cross‑dock, ports, or terminals).
  • Experience providing solutions using IoT devices such as RFID, GPS, PLC, camera vision, and other automated sensors.
