This role is designed for someone with hands-on experience implementing SaaS products who can independently deliver standard and moderately complex implementations using established approaches. You will work closely with Technical Architects, Customer Success, Support, Sales, and partners. You will also help improve implementation consistency by contributing lessons learned, reusable documentation, and practical feedback from customer deployments.

Translate agreed solution designs and customer requirements into clear implementation plans, milestones, dependencies, and acceptance criteria.

Support enterprise identity and access use cases including SSO/SAML, SCIM, identity provisioning, and permission configuration.

Lead customer implementation workshops, technical working sessions, status meetings, enablement sessions, and implementation handoffs.

Troubleshoot implementation issues using established tools, documentation, and escalation paths; identify when issues require support from Technical Architecture, Engineering, Security, Product, or Support.

Document implementation decisions, configurations, testing results, risks, and handoff requirements clearly for customers and internal teams.

Use approved AI and technical tools to accelerate implementation documentation, troubleshooting, scripting, testing, and knowledge capture while maintaining responsibility for output quality and accuracy.
