Technical Delivery Lead Jobs in Chicago, IL

SUMMARY:

The Product Delivery PM is responsible for supporting the CLIENT'S Product Delivery Manager in all aspects of the deployment of the Zoom & Polycom Phone product to the CLIENT'S Retail Branch nationwide estate. The Product Delivery PM will be provided with work instruction by the CLIENT'S Product Delivery Manager. The role involves administrative tasks, including the tracking of project deliverables including the status of the deliverables, manipulating and uploading spreadsheets, performing quality-assurance (data integrity checks) against data sets, and providing metrics and reporting. However, the Product Delivery PM will also assist the CLIENT'S Product Delivery Manager in monitoring the Zoom & Polycom telephony deployments daily while assessing the effectiveness of deployment processes and making suggestions for process improvement. The Product Delivery PM will be involved in researching methods to improve the Monday.com project repository and may be provided with opportunity for certain hands-on administration of the tool. Finally, the Product Delivery PM may be asked to back up the CLIENT'S Product Delivery Manager in certain cases when the Delivery Manager is absent.

At the current rollout cadence, the deployment team manages a substantial volume of information measured in hundreds-of-thousands of data rows. With the accelerated pace there will be a need to manage even larger volumes (potentially double) within a shorter timeframe. Our in-house developed Monday.com system (Zoom Phone Central / "ZPC") is at the core of our data-management and work-flow-management, and this resource will provide Monday.com support to potentially expand the system and maintain its operations. If the heightened visibility of the accelerated rollout demands more dashboards and/or metrics, this individual will be tasked with using Tableau and/or other tools (potentially AI) to develop the mechanisms/tools to efficiently deliver the most robust and useful information to the stakeholders.
