With unmatched industrial heritage and a comprehensive suite of AI capabilities, including low-code AI agents, Cognite accelerates the digital transformation to drive operational improvements.\nWe thrive in challenges. We challenge assumptions. We execute with speed and ownership. If you view obstacles as signals to step forward - not backwards - you’ll feel right at home here. \nOur Moonshot is bold: Unlock $100B in customer value by 2035, and redefine how global industry works. Join us in this venture where AI and data meet ingenuity, and together, we will forge the path to a smarter, more connected industrial future.\nAbout the Role\nAs a Deployment Strategist, you are the owner of the customer's problem and the value we promise to deliver. You are the bridge between a customer's business objective and our technical delivery team, accountable for the \"why\" and the \"what\", while Solution Architects and Data Engineers own the \"how\".\nYou will work with senior customer stakeholders to scope value, define pilots and releases, steer delivery through to go-live, and drive adoption so that value is actually realized after launch. You combine the discipline of a program manager with the product thinking of a field product owner, and you are as comfortable in a steering committee as you are in a working session with plant engineers.\nThis is a hands-on role. You are expected to shape the engagement, not just report on it.\nWhat You'll Do\nScope and define value\nPartner with Revenue to run discovery, map stakeholders, and translate business problems into a clearly scoped engagement (outcomes, MVP, success criteria, timeline, commercial boundaries).\nBuild value cases and success metrics with the customer, and keep them visible throughout delivery.\nDefine what \"done\" and \"valuable\" mean for each release, and manage scope against them.\nOwn delivery outcomes\nLead engagements end to end, from kickoff through go-live, using an iterative, continuous-delivery approach.\nPrioritize the backlog with the customer and the delivery team, and make trade-off decisions on scope, timeline, and quality.\nManage risk, dependencies, and escalations across customer, partner, and internal teams, and unblock technical and political issues early.\nOwn delivery health: plan, margin, forecast, resourcing needs, and status reporting.\nDrive adoption and value realization\nOwn the path from go-live to measurable usage: adoption plans, enablement and training, user feedback loops, and health indicators.\nIdentify blockers to adoption and expansion signals early, and act on them with the account team.\nPrepare a clean handoff to the long-term run and support model.\nLead with partners and the team\nCoordinate delivery with system integrator and partner teams, and protect clear accountability and contract boundaries.\nGuide Solution Architects, Data Engineers, and Data Scientists in the engagement, and coach junior colleagues.\nContribute to the Value Delivery playbook: lessons learned, reusable templates, and delivery standards.\nFeed the product\nTurn field insight into structured product feedback for Product and Engineering.\nUse AI tooling in your own work (analysis, documentation, reporting, prototyping) and help the team raise its standard.\nWhat You Bring\nMust have\n5+ years of experience in customer-facing delivery, program management or technical advisory for enterprise software or data/AI platforms.\nA track record of owning complex, ambiguous engagements through to measurable customer outcomes.\nComfort with technical subject matter (data platforms, integration, cloud, analytics, or AI/ML). You do not need to build the solution, but you must understand it well enough to scope it and challenge it.\nExecutive-level communication: you can present, negotiate, and make decisions with senior customer stakeholders and with delivery engineers on the same day.\nStrong command of agile and iterative delivery, backlog prioritisation, and scope management.\nFluent English and ideally French\nWillingness to travel to customer sites up to 50%.\nNice to have\nExperience in industrial sectors (energy, oil and gas, chemicals, pharma, manufacturing, utilities).\nExperience with value-based scoping (ROI/TCO) and authoring product requirements or solution specifications.\nExperience working in multi-vendor delivery models with system integrators.\nExposure to industrial data, knowledge graphs, or operational technology environments.\nExperience in a high-growth software company or a \"builder\" role in a startup.\nLearn more about us\nImpact 2025\nCognite's Industrial AI: Moonshot\nWe’re globally recognized domain experts with an international presence that spans Phoenix, Houston, Oslo Tokyo, Bengaluru, and Abu Dhabi.\n Equal Opportunity\nCognite is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment at work and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive the same level of consideration for employment.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5140,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Industrial IoT (IIoT)","Manufacturing & Industrial Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-14T12:24:39Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":5,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.174,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":106,"expected_fill_days":22,"reasons":["conf:0","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-14T23:43:14Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/cognite-senior-project-manager-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/cognite-senior-project-manager-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-14T23:43:14Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":123,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-15T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4475},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4475"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcognite-senior-project-manager-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcognite-senior-project-manager-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcognite-senior-project-manager-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/cognite-senior-project-manager-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcognite-senior-project-manager-2"}]}
