Project Manager

Who you are

• Can you take an enterprise system initiative from a whiteboard to a stable go-live — and own the date?
• Experience delivering enterprise technology programs, including at least three years on ERP, CRM, or quote-to-cash implementations
• Demonstrated ownership of a full delivery lifecycle through go-live and stabilization — accountability for a date, not project reporting alone
• Hands-on delivery experience with Salesforce and/or NetSuite, including integration between systems of record
• Working fluency in business finance: order-to-cash, billing, cost allocation, budget tracking, and how system decisions land in the financial statements
• Proven experience managing external system integrators and vendor statements of work, including change orders and delivery escalation
• Experience running structured cutover and hypercare, including go/no-go decision-making under time pressure
• Strong written communication and executive presence — you can write a status report an executive reads once and understands, and hold your position in a room of senior stakeholders
• Proficiency with Jira, Confluence, and Microsoft 365, and comfort building executive-ready reporting
• Comfortable operating in a high-growth, high-accountability environment requiring both structured planning and hands-on execution
• Salesforce Revenue Cloud or CPQ delivery experience, or NetSuite implementation experience
• Background in a public-company finance or accounting environment, including awareness of SOX-relevant process and controls
• Experience in a high-growth environment where process was being built while it was being used (strongly preferred)
• Hardware, manufacturing, or asset-intensive business exposure — rentals, service, installed base, or asset lifecycle (highly valuable)
• PMP, PRINCE2, SAFe, or equivalent certification, or a formal Agile delivery background

What the job involves

• Evolv is looking for a Project Manager, Enterprise Programs to lead delivery of the platforms that run the business: the quote-to-cash and financial technology stack spanning Salesforce, NetSuite, and the integration layer between them. How fast Evolv can quote, book, fulfill, invoice, and recognize revenue depends on how well these programs land
• This is a hands-on delivery role, not a reporting role. You will create structure out of ambiguity, hold implementation partners to their commitments, work daily across Finance, IT, Sales Operations, Supply Chain, and Service & Deployment, and be the person who says a date is at risk early — and arrives with a recovery plan
• Own delivery of enterprise system initiatives across Salesforce (Revenue Cloud / CPQ Advanced) and NetSuite, including the integration layer between systems of record
• Lead initiatives across the full lifecycle: requirements, design, build, testing, cutover, launch, and stabilization
• Coordinate delivery across the quote-to-cash lifecycle — quoting and configuration, contract amendments, renewals, rentals, certified pre-owned, asset lifecycle management, order management, billing, and revenue reporting
• Build and maintain integrated project plans covering scope, schedule, dependencies, resources, and budget
• Run a live RAID log, manage scope and change formally, and secure the right approvals for schedule, cost, and quality impacts
• Produce executive status reporting and steering committee materials; run weekly execution meetings and support the executive governance cadence
• Manage system integrators and implementation partners; support statement of work development, change orders, and invoice validation
• Partner with Finance on cost allocation, close impacts, revenue recognition considerations, and reporting requirements; track initiative budgets and forecast to completion
• Own data migration and validation planning, cutover runbooks, go/no-go criteria, and command center operations through launch weekends
• Plan and run user acceptance testing, and run structured hypercare with defined severity levels, daily triage, and defect burn-down
• Maintain the deferred scope register so items cut from a release are tracked, prioritized, and either scheduled or formally retired
• Negotiate competing subject matter expert demands with functional leaders; translate technical constraints into business impact and business needs into deliverable scope
• Manage delivery in Jira and Confluence, and maintain program documentation in SharePoint
• Maintain enough platform understanding to challenge estimates, interrogate solution design, and identify integration risk before it becomes rework
• You will report to the Director of Strategic Programs, with a direct line to the VP of, IT, Cybersecurity, & Data Architecture. This role sits at the center of Evolv’s systems transformation and works daily across Finance, IT, Sales Operations, Supply Chain, and Service & Deployment
• The team culture is high-accountability and candid: risk is surfaced early while it is still inexpensive to resolve, decisions are driven to closure rather than left to age, and people are expected to own outcomes rather than status updates. You will have real latitude to build the delivery standard Evolv applies to every strategic initiative
• Success in the Role: Performance Outcomes
• In the first 30 days, you will:
• Meet your delivery counterparts across Finance, IT, Sales Operations, Supply Chain, and Service & Deployment, in person and virtually
• Build a working understanding of Evolv’s quote-to-cash landscape — Salesforce Revenue Cloud, NetSuite, and the integration between systems of record
• Take ownership of the integrated plan and RAID log for your assigned initiatives, and establish real owners and real dates on both
• Produce your first executive status report — concise, decision-oriented, and candid about risk
• Within 3 months, you will:
• Run the weekly execution cadence and produce steering committee materials on a predictable rhythm
• Manage your implementation partners against contracted deliverables, milestones, and dates, escalating scope or commercial drift early with a recommended course of action
• Drive the open decision backlog to closure on a clock, rather than letting decisions age into schedule risk
• Own the subject matter expert demand picture across your initiatives and surface resourcing conflicts to functional leaders before they become schedule slips
• Lead a UAT or cutover cycle with defined entry and exit criteria and traceability back to requirements
• By the end of the first year, you will:
• Have delivered at least one major enterprise release through go-live, structured hypercare, and a defined hypercare exit — not an open-ended tail
• Maintain a single source of truth for program status across workstreams, so leadership sees one version rather than one per team
• Give leadership a live view of program health through reporting and dashboards, without a manual weekly scramble
• Have applied AI and automation to the administrative side of project management — status roll-ups, backlog hygiene, reporting — so your time goes to judgement and coordination
• Have contributed concrete improvements to Evolv’s delivery standard: templates, stage gates, governance, and reporting formats used beyond your own programs
