About the role

Are you a technical delivery expert who thrives at the intersection of complex software configuration, strategic solutioning, and team mentorship? Do you love the challenge of bridging the gap between cutting-edge product engineering and real-world customer operations?

As the Lead Technical Implementation Consultant at Shipium, you won't just follow a deployment checklist—you will own the technical execution lifecycle. Operating with full autonomy, you will manage post-contract integration projects across our enterprise product portfolio. You will act as the primary technical anchor for our implementation team, driving modern, AI-augmented workflows and leveling up internal capabilities while ensuring our customers experience a seamless, rapid time-to-value.

If you are looking for a high-impact role where you can engineer scalable processes, mentor a growing team, and directly influence product development, we want to talk to you.
