Job Description
This director owns the engineering that moves customers onto Adaptive streamlined. Many customers carry years of custom code. Lynx is QAD's tooling, built on AWS’ ATX, that analyzes existing customizations and supports their conversion to approaches compatible with Adaptive streamlined. The Extensions Platform is where customers build and run those extensions. This leader owns both, plus the engineering side of the pre-engagement assessment every customer goes through before migrating. It is the most customer-facing engineering leadership role in the transformation.
Responsibilities
- Own the engineering capabilities and technical support model that enable Services and partners to assess, plan, and execute customer transitions: assess their setting, customizations, integrations, and business processes; convert what can be converted; resolve what cannot.
- Lead the engineering side of the pre-engagement gate with Services, Sales, and Product, so customers are qualified and planned before migration starts.
- Own the combined roadmap, delivery commitments, budget, and results for Lynx and the Extensions Platform.
- Lead and develop both managers and their teams, with clear ownership, performance expectations, and succession.
- Turn findings from every migration into backlog: missed customizations become Lynx work, platform gaps become Extensions Platform work.
- Build an Extensions Platform that lets customers create their own extensions, replacing what they give up in custom code.
- Manage internal and vendor delivery, and measure the process: conversion effort, cycle time, and customers reaching Adaptive streamlined.
