Director of Solutions Engineering

Описание вакансии

Courier Health is on a mission to solve one of the biggest and most meaningful opportunities in healthcare: reinvent how people living with chronic and rare diseases are supported.

We are building the future of patient engagement for life sciences companies. Our software is leveraged by biopharma companies to support patients in their complex journey from diagnosis to initiating and remaining on therapy to achieve optimal health outcomes.

About the Role

Customer Engineering sits at the intersection of engineering and client delivery, owning the technical execution that turns our platform into a live, production system for each biopharma customer. This role sits within the Engineering team and interfaces closely with the Client Solutions and Engineering teams. Customer Engineering covers all aspects of the implementation and customer success for our biopharma clients, including product requirements gathering, configuration of data integrations, product support, and workflow maintenance. This role is in person 4x a week in our office in Nomad and will involve some travel (<10% of time).

What You’ll Do

• Team Leadership & Development: Manage, mentor, and grow a team of 5+ Customer Engineers. Set clear expectations, run effective 1:1s, and create career development paths that retain strong technical talent.
• Delivery Quality & Customer Satisfaction: Own the quality bar for all customer implementations and ongoing technical support. Establish and track KPIs around implementation timelines, data accuracy, customer satisfaction, and issue resolution.
• Process & Operational Excellence: Design and implement scalable, repeatable processes for customer implementations—from data integration and mapping through go-live and hypercare. Build implementation calendars, roadmaps, and tracking systems that provide visibility across all in-flight engagements.
• Cross-Functional Partnership: Work closely with the Director of Implementation, Implementation Managers, Engineering leadership, and Product to coordinate delivery, resolve blockers, and ensure smooth handoffs across the customer lifecycle.
• Technical Escalation & Guidance: Serve as the senior technical escalation point for complex customer issues. Guide the team through ambiguous data problems, integration challenges, and edge cases in customer business logic.
• Architectural Influence: Drive architectural decisions that improve the team’s operational effectiveness—advocating for platform changes, tooling improvements, and data pipeline enhancements that reduce implementation complexity and improve data quality for future customers.
• Hiring & Scaling: Partner with the CTO to define hiring plans, conduct interviews, and onboard new Customer Engineers as the team grows alongside the customer base.
• Customer Engagement: Represent Customer Engineering in strategic conversations with customers when needed. Travel occasionally (<10% of time) for key customer meetings, go-lives, or escalations.
