Project Manager

Implementation and Project Delivery

Lead end-to-end SIS platform deployments from kickoff through go-live, including discovery workshops with key campus stakeholders to map institutional requirements and legacy workflows. Maintain project timelines, track milestones, mitigate risks, and communicate status updates to internal teams and client steering committees. Support institutions through change management as they transition to a modern SaaS environment, advocating for out-of-the-box functionality over heavy customization. Conduct post-implementation reviews to capture lessons learned, identify optimization opportunities, and contribute to continuous improvement of internal methodologies and playbooks. Higher Education Consulting, Compliance and Data Governance

Serve as a subject matter expert in higher education operations, including admissions, registration, grading, degree auditing, and financial aid, consulting with staff to redesign legacy processes around platform best practices. Ensure system configurations support compliance with federal and regional regulations (e.g., FERPA, Title IV) and champion responsible data governance practices throughout the implementation lifecycle. Configure predictive analytics models and early-warning systems to help advisors identify at-risk students, ensuring AI-assisted tools are used transparently, equitably, and free from bias. Technical Strategy and Integration Leverage AI-driven data mapping, cleansing, and automation tools across the project lifecycle to improve the efficiency and accuracy of data migration and client outcomes. Define integration requirements between the SIS and critical campus infrastructure such as LMS (e.g., Canvas, Blackboard), CRM, and ERP/financial systems. Translate complex academic policies (e.g., non-standard calendars, unique credit hour calculations) into actionable technical configurations. Client Success and Growth

Develop and deliver targeted training sessions for campus staff, ensuring confidence and self-sufficiency in the new system before go-live. Build strong consultative relationships with university leadership, serving as their strategic partner and primary advocate while proactively identifying opportunities to expand platform adoption through additional modules and professional services. Partner with Sales and Account Management to develop account growth strategies, contribute to proposals, and support renewal conversations. Act as the voice of the customer by synthesizing feedback and implementation pain points to drive product roadmap improvements. Requirements
