Who you are

You are a growing leader who has earned the respect of your peers and leaders through a strong work ethic, analytical ability, and motivational, performance-oriented coaching. You're a natural cross-functional collaborator — comfortable working the phone or the inbox with Sales, dealers, OEMs, and outside vendors to keep a deployment moving, even when the holdup isn't your team's fault. You're technical enough to get hands-on in the web tooling your team implements, not just direct it from a distance. You understand and trust data, and use it daily to separate what your team controls from what's stuck waiting on someone else. You bring the same rigor to a go-live checklist that you bring to coaching a specialist. You're tenacious without being territorial — quick to escalate outside your own walls when that's what actually unblocks the work.

The Deployment Manager owns frontline performance and management for the product deployment team. This leader will track and lead efforts to reduce overall deployment time and improve quality — from assignment through go-live — through training, coaching, and motivating their team. You will serve as a senior point of escalation for dealer, OEM, and vendor-related delays, and will build the cross-functional relationships that keep deployments moving even when the holdup isn't your team's doing. Leadership and participation in special projects is required as needed. You will direct schedules and workloads, and assist with capacity planning.
