- Coordinate internal teams across configuration, data, integrations, testing, release, and go-live readiness
- Manage scope, priorities, delivery trade-offs, and change requests
- Build trusted relationships with customer stakeholders and internal delivery teams
- Identify delivery risks early and drive practical resolution
- Support UAT, release planning, go-live, and post-go-live transition
