By offering the industry's leading cloud-based solutions for communications, content management, meeting and agenda management, and digital services to over 4,000 public sector organizations, Granicus helps turn government missions into quantifiable realities.

The Technical Implementation Consultant role lives within the technical arm of the Granicus' govService product family and is a key member of the Professional Services (PS) team. This team helps customers (government agencies) transform the citizen experience.

As a Technical Implementation Consultant you'll be an expert on the govService platform, and a key partner in the successful rollout of projects across the United States.

Expert technical knowledge and enthusiasm for client success are cornerstones of this role.

What You'll Do:

• Master the govService platform – you'll be the internal expert on the product
• Serve as an advisor to the customer as they improve their online processes – keeping the citizen experience top-of-mind at every turn
• Define features, phases, and solution requirements for customer implementations
• Provide specifications according to which the solution is defined, managed, and delivered
• Advocate and evangelize "best practice" approaches to client set ups to ensure long term success and value for Granicus clients
• Ensure implementations meet client specific missions and solve core challenges around effective, efficient and engaging communications
• Partner with the assigned Project Manager, lead and manage multiple Granicus technical product implementations and solutions on schedule and with high quality
• Clarify and drive implementation commitments
• Collaborate with product, engineering and other technical stakeholders on delivery of key solutions for the customer
• Develop training and implementation documentation for customized implementations
• Conduct system training for client administrators and developers when applicable
• Work closely with Process Designers (internal "builders") and Project Managers that interface with customers alongside you - to advise on progress and share ideas
• Ensure acceptance criteria are clearly defined and verify it matches the requirements
• Stay up-to-date on the latest process and IT advancements to automate and modernize systems
• Effectively communicate your insights and plans to cross-functional team members
• Prioritize initiatives based on business needs and requirements

Who You Are:

• BA/BS degree or equivalent

• You can analyze a process, and easily see the "if/thens" in the logic. Familiarity with building online forms and/or workflow strongly preferred. You know which fields need to be displayed on a form, and which questions are context sensitive (e.g. children dates of birth to be requested only where number of children is greater than zero)
• Demonstrate and ensure timely and thorough communication of strategy, deliverable status, and results
• You have a proven ability to flex between the technical and business sides of your brain – engineers and cross-functional team members alike love to work with you
• You are able to work with multiple cross-functional teams to build and evaluate business cases to support product investment decisions
• Successful facilitation of technical implementations
• You are a problem-solver, able to quickly change direction based on updated client specifications or system limitations
