- What You'll Own
- Delivery & Client Success during deployment and managed services
- Lead delivery of complex, multi-phase AI agent deployments (SOW through hypercare) for enterprise customers.
- Define project scope, WBS, risk register, and governance cadence from kick-off; maintain a single source of truth for plan, budget, and status throughout.
- Run executive steering committees and weekly client status calls; produce concise written updates that build trust and surface decisions early.
- Manage client-side change requests and scope creep with a structured CR process, protecting both Lyzr's margins and client satisfaction.
- Oversee UAT, go-live readiness, and hypercare handover to ensure every deployment enters production on a stable footing.
- Team & Cross-functional Leadership
- Coordinate across solution architects, AI/ML engineers, data engineers, and QA — typically 4–10 person cross-functional pods per engagement.
- Partner with the Pre-Sales and Sales teams during deal closure to validate technical feasibility and shape realistic delivery timelines.
- Act as an escalation point and unblock delivery impediments in real time; know when to escalate to Lyzr leadership vs. resolve independently.
- Contribute to professionalizing the PS practice by refining delivery frameworks, project templates, RAID logs, and lessons-learned libraries.
- Commercial Accountability
- Identify and qualify expansion opportunities within active accounts, looping in the account team as appropriate.
- Support SOW drafting and SLA definition for new and renewal engagements.
