The Role We’re not just hiring for a position, we’re adding a teammate The Manager, Implementation Management leads and develops Minga's team of Implementation Managers, the people who take a signed school and/or district from contract to a live, trained, working product. Your mandate is to make sure every new customer launches fast, launches well, and hands off to Account Management with everything the AM needs to build a great long-term relationship.
This is a player-coach role. You understand the technical and operational details of implementation deeply enough to mentor your team through complex launches, while staying senior enough to set the process, manage capacity, and hold the function accountable to its performance targets.
Between launches, your IMs are also Minga's deepest technical and product experts on the customer-facing side — running special projects across the existing base, owning the implementation of product upgrades, and getting pulled in by Account Managers and Account Executives when an account needs implementation-grade depth. Your job is to make sure that work is resourced and prioritized alongside new launches, and delivered to the same standard.
What You’ll Do Team Leadership & Development
Lead, coach, and develop a team of Implementation Managers through 1:1s, project reviews, and direct coaching on active accounts
Set clear performance expectations against time-to-value, on-time launch rate, training completion, and handoff quality
Build individual development plans; develop IMs into increasingly autonomous, high-quality practitioners
Recruit, interview, and onboard new Implementation Managers; own their ramp to independent account ownership
Set expectations for IMs to run special projects, product upgrades,
and SME support work between launches, each one leaving behind a reusable playbook
Capacity & Project Management
Manage implementation capacity across the team; match IM workload to the incoming pipeline from Sales and to special-project and upgrade demand from the existing base
Prioritize account assignments based on size, complexity, and academic calendar constraints
Prioritize special projects — platform migrations, product upgrades, new capability rollouts — and SME requests from Account Management alongside new implementations
Maintain visibility across all active implementations; identify at-risk projects and intervene early
Track team-level KPIs weekly; forecast on-time launch rates and flag risks to the Director Customer Experience
Process, Playbook & Tooling
Build and maintain the implementation playbook: project templates, technical configuration guides, training frameworks, and handoff documentation standards
Own the technical toolset for implementation, rostering platforms (Clever, ClassLink, OneRoster), SSO configuration, and data validation workflows
Drive continuous improvement in implementation speed and quality through process iteration and tooling enhancements
Maintain and improve the standards for the written handoff from Implementation to Account Management
Maintain a library of playbooks from completed special projects and upgrades so improvements compound across the team
Cross-Functional Partnership
Partner with the AE team on handoff documentation quality — ensure IMs receive complete handoffs and provide feedback when they don't
Work with the Managers, Account Management on the go-live handoff process, and on the SME requests, escalations, and upsell/expansion signals IMs surface from the base
Ensure IMs have bandwidth to support Account Executives on trials and technical evaluations when pulled in for implementation-grade depth

Report team performance, capacity, and risk to the Director, Customer Experience

Who You Are A process builder — you see gaps in the playbook and fill them; you leave every workflow cleaner than you found it
Technically fluent — you can get into the details of an integration issue or a data mapping problem when your team needs it A outstanding coach — your instinct is to teach the IM how to solve the problem, not to solve it for them
Calm under school-calendar pressure — you know launches can't slip, and you plan accordingly
