Technical Project Manager (TPM) Germany

Lead high complexity deployments of Parloa's Agentic AI / conversational AI platform for enterprise customers. Own the end-to-end delivery lifecycle from scoping and planning through go-live and hypercare, working in a pod model alongside a Forward Deployed Engineer and an Agent Architect. You will be the primary owner of timeline, scope, risk, governance, and stakeholder communication.

What you'll do

• Own end-to-end delivery for assigned Agentic AI customer projects (scope, schedule, budget, risk, quality).
• Run the pod (TPM + FDE + Agent Architect) as a single accountable delivery unit.
• Select and apply appropriate delivery methodology (Waterfall, Agile, or Hybrid) based on customer context and risk profile.
• Serve as primary delivery contact for customer project sponsors, IT, and business stakeholders.
• Facilitate recurring governance: status calls, steering committees, UAT readouts, and go-live reviews.
• Coordinate with Forward Deployed Engineers on integration readiness, environment setup, performance, and production stability.
• Manage scope and change requests, ensuring commercial and delivery impacts are understood and agreed.
• Define and track deployment KPIs such as Time to Blueprint, Time to First Agent in UAT, Time to Go-Live, and Milestone On-Time Rate.

What you'll need

• 3+ years of experience in technical project management, program management, or delivery management for SaaS or enterprise software.
• Hands-on experience delivering solutions involving Contact Center / CCaaS, UCaaS, conversational AI, IVA/IVR, or related CX platforms.
• Demonstrated ability to work across technical and business stakeholders (IT, Security, Operations, Business Owners).
• Solid understanding of software delivery methodologies (Agile/Scrum, Hybrid, and Waterfall) and when to apply each.
• Strong skills in project planning tools (e.g., Jira, Asana, Monday, MS Project, Smartsheet) and collaboration tools.
• Excellent communication, facilitation, and conflict resolution skills.
• Proven track record managing multiple concurrent projects with global, distributed teams.
• Fluency in English and German is required.

Nice to have
