Role summary :
You will own end-to-end delivery of enterprise Voicebot/Contact Centre projects - driving execution from kickoff to go-live and steady-state performance, across multiple systems and stakeholders. You will be the "single-threaded owner" for program plans, risks, dependencies, timelines, and customer communication - while partnering with FDEs for technical implementation and solutioning. A strong working knowledge of SIP is mandatory. Note : This is not an Engineering Manager role (no people management); it is a delivery + customer outcomes TPM role working closely with FDEs and cross-functional engineering teams.
Key responsibilities :
Program ownership & delivery execution :
- Own project plans, milestones, RAID logs (Risks/Assumptions/Issues/Dependencies), and delivery governance for multiple concurrent customer deployments.
- Drive structured execution : kickoff - requirements/workshops - solutioning - integrations - UAT - production go-live - hypercare - handover.
Customer-facing leadership :
- Run customer-facing ceremonies (status calls, technical deep-dives, escalation calls), manage expectations, and keep stakeholders aligned on scope, timelines, and acceptance criteria.
- Travel to customer sites for workshops, cutovers, and escalations when needed.
Solutioning + cross-system coordination :
- Coordinate across customer IT/telephony vendors, contact centre teams, security teams, and Exotel engineering to deliver working end-to-end flows.
- Manage integration-heavy projects involving APIs, webhooks, CRMs, DBs, and contact center/telephony setups.
Telephony/Contact Centre fundamentals :
- Own technical readiness checklists for voice deployments (routing, transfers, DTMF, call recording requirements, latency constraints).
- Use your SIP knowledge to unblock issues quickly; SIP trunking/contact centre context is a bonus.
InfoSec & compliance readiness :
- Manage security/compliance workflows : vendor security questionnaires, data handling expectations, access control requirements, and approvals with customer security teams.
Must-have qualifications :
- 5 - 8 years of project/program management experience delivering customer-facing technical systems (SaaS/telecom/contact center/CCaaS preferred).
- Strong client-facing execution : crisp written updates, stakeholder management, escalation handling, negotiation on scope/timelines.
- Working knowledge of SIP (must) and comfort operating in telephony-style incident/debug environments.
- Ability to operate with ambiguity and bring structure (clear milestones, ownership, and decision logs).
- Solid technical aptitude (can understand logs, APIs, integrations, basic architecture) and partner effectively with engineers/FDEs.
- Familiarity with InfoSec processes in enterprise deals (security reviews, compliance artefacts, data flow review).
Nice-to-haves :
- Telco/Contact Centre domain experience (SIP trunking, PBX, ACD/IVR concepts, QoS/latency awareness).
- Experience delivering AI/Voicebot/Conversational AI systems.
- Exposure to tools like Jira/Linear, Confluence/Notion, Postman, basic SQL/log analytics.
What success looks like (first 90 days) :
- Independently run 1 - 2 key projects with predictable milestones and high customer confidence.
- Reduce go-live friction via stronger templates : kickoff checklist, UAT plan, cutover runbook, hypercare SOP.
- Improve delivery hygiene (risk management, scope control, cross-team alignment) across the FDE + engineering loop.
