Lead Implementation Consultant

Job Description We're hiring a senior, customer-facing  Lead Technical Consultant  to operate with authority across the  full customer lifecycle —owning  pre-sales solutioning and commercial scoping  for complex, multi-country pursuits and leading  end-to-end technical delivery  for our most strategic customers. This is a hybrid role that blends  solution consulting (pre-sales)  with  implementation leadership (delivery) . You'll partner closely with  Sales, Customer Success, Product, Security/Legal (as needed), and our implementation/integration teams  to design the right solution, produce credible estimates and customer-ready artifacts, and drive technical readiness through  go-live and hypercare . You'll also act as the  practice-level technical authority , providing technical oversight, quality assurance, and escalation support across multiple projects—not just your own. About the role Lead complex pre-sales pursuits:  run discovery, qualify fit, define solution direction, and present architecture options/tradeoffs with executive credibility. Own commercial scoping for strategic deals:  define scope boundaries, assumptions, dependencies, risks, and change-control approach; build effort estimates across integration, mapping, testing, cutover, and hypercare. Create customer-facing deliverables:  solution overviews, integration diagrams, rollout/resourcing plans, risk registers, SOWs/exhibits, and technical RFP/RFI responses. Lead end-to-end technical delivery:  from discovery through go-live for large-scale, multi-country e-invoicing programs; drive integration approach, data mapping, testing readiness, and cutover planning. Drive integration architecture and readiness:  recommend ERP-to-cloud connectivity (API/HTTPS/SFTP), define end-to-end data flows (acknowledgements, retries, error handling, monitoring), and align on security (certs, auth, IP allowlists, encryption) across DEV/TEST/PROD. Be the escalation and quality bar:  troubleshoot high-severity issues, review/validate technical deliverables from project teams, and ensure clean pre-sales-to-delivery handoffs. Scale the practice:  standardize patterns and delivery standards; mentor consultants; build reusable assets (templates, estimating models, reference architectures, discovery checklists, playbooks). About You You're a senior consultant who can be equally credible  in front of executives and technical architects , and you thrive in ambiguous, high-stakes environments where scoping accuracy and delivery quality matter. 10 years  hands-on experience in  ERP implementation and/or integration delivery  in B2B enterprise environments ( SAP or Oracle strongly preferred ). Proven ability to lead  complex, multi-workstream, multi-country programs  from discovery through go-live. Deep experience designing and overseeing  ERP integrations  with external platforms (architecture, delivery oversight, troubleshooting at scale). Strong understanding of  O2C and P2P  processes and how they translate into invoicing/compliance requirements across geographies. Strong working knowledge of integration patterns/tech:  APIs, HTTPS, SFTP, web services, middleware . Comfortable with enterprise data formats:  XML, JSON, CSV, EDI  (mapping, validation, enrichment). Demonstrated pre-sales capability:  discovery, scoping, estimating, SOW authoring , and technical inputs to RFP/RFI responses. Excellent communication skills with a track record of producing  polished customer-facing deliverables . Experience in  e-invoicing, tax compliance, regulatory reporting , or compliance-driven integration programs. SAP functional/technical background ( FI/SD/MM ) or Oracle ( Financials/SCM ). Experience influencing  packaging/pricing inputs  and supporting complex deal cycles. Familiarity with international tax processes and multi-country compliance mandates.
