Technical Implementation Manager

The Technical Implementation Manager (TIM) owns the technical delivery of Landis+Gyr's AMI products and solutions for new customer deployments and upgrades. The role covers both containerized deployments on Kubernetes (GKE and RKE), delivered using CI/CD pipelines and automation, and multi-tier deployments of the Head-End System (HES) across Windows and Linux servers. Across both, the TIM takes the Landis+Gyr solution from environment readiness through to production, covering the full stack from head-end software to field network endpoints.

Working closely with Program Managers, infrastructure teams, customer IT and operations teams, and Landis+Gyr engineering and product groups, the TIM is accountable for a successful go-live. This includes resolving technical issues that arise during deployment and the hypercare period, and transitioning the solution smoothly to the support organization. The role calls for deep hands-on DevOps expertise and a strong working knowledge of GCP, combined with the planning and customer-facing skills needed to deliver complex deployments on schedule.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end technical deployment of Landis+Gyr AMI solutions for new customers and upgrades, from environment readiness through go-live, planning activities with Program Managers and managing dependencies and risks.
• Validate that provisioned GCP and RKE environments meet deployment prerequisites, working with the infrastructure teams responsible for provisioning them.
• Deploy, configure and upgrade containerized applications on Kubernetes (GKE and RKE) using Docker and Helm charts.
• Install, configure and upgrade the Head-End System (HES) across its multi-tier architecture (network, metrology, web, application and adapter tiers) on Windows and Linux servers, including IIS and .NET-based components.
• Use and maintain CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins or similar) and scripting (PowerShell, Bash) to automate deployment, upgrade and rollback, and build reusable deployment templates across customers.
• Set up monitoring, logging and alerting so deployed applications are production-ready at go-live.
• Deliver integrations between the Landis+Gyr head-end and customer enterprise systems (e.g., MDM, CIS).
• Lead System Acceptance Testing (SAT) for new deployments and upgrades, driving defects to resolution.
• Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues during deployment and hypercare through root cause analysis, engaging engineering, product, infrastructure and support teams as needed.
• Manage the formal handover to support teams, including operational documentation, runbooks and knowledge transfer.
• Follow formal change control processes and keep ServiceNow records complete for deployment-phase changes and issues.
• Act as the customer's technical point of contact, leading technical workshops and liaising across Landis+Gyr business units throughout the deployment.
