## About the Role

You'll work closely with Public Sector or Commercial clients who see Sierra-Cedar as a trusted advisor. This is not a Manager role.

As a Lead, you will hold meetings on camera on a daily basis, and travel to client sites as needed during project milestones.

You'll lead design sessions and implement the designs. You'll help solve complex business problems from strategy to execution using Oracle Cloud EPM tools such as Planning (EPBCS/PBCS), Narrative Reporting, and Enterprise Data Management. On the technical side, the Lead will handle building integrations, reports, and application configurations. Overall, you'll review and edit project deliverables, collaborate with cross-functional teams, deliver integrated and technical solutions, and guide the team through project delivery.
