Why This Role: * This is an organizational design challenge with a real customer impact mandate. You'll have the authority to rethink how support works, the resources to invest in the right tooling and talent, and a product that genuinely matters to healthcare providers and their patients. The stakes are real: enterprise contracts carry financial obligations, and you'll be the person who ensures we honor every one of them. If you've been waiting for a role where accountability and scale go hand in hand, this is it. ## Description We're building a world-class support organization to serve healthcare enterprises at scale - and we're looking for a Director who can architect it from the inside out. This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role at the intersection of customer success, technical operations, and organizational design. You'll lead three interconnected functions - Customer Support, Support Engineering, and Managed Services & Monitoring - and be the operational backbone that our largest health system and analytics customers rely on when it matters most. A critical dimension of this role is ownership of enterprise contract SLAs: ensuring every committed obligation is tracked, met, and protected - and that identified gaps are resolved before they become penalties or relationship risks. What You'll Own * Contract SLA Ownership - You will own the full lifecycle of enterprise contract SLA compliance - from intake and definition through real-time tracking, gap remediation, and executive reporting. You are the last line of defense against SLA breaches and the financial and reputational penalties they carry. * Contract SLA Management - Own enterprise contract SLA obligations end-to-end. Maintain a real-time registry of all committed SLAs, track performance against each, and drive rapid gap remediation to prevent penalties. Partner with Legal, Sales, and Finance on contract renewals and SLA negotiation. * Gap Identification & Remediation - Build early-warning systems that surface SLA risk before breach occurs. Own escalation protocols when gaps are identified - coordinating cross-functional response across Support Engineering, Monitoring, and Product to resolve issues within contractual windows. * Org Design & Scaling - Restructure and scale support operations to meet enterprise health tech demands - building tiered support models, escalation frameworks, and coverage strategies. * Support Engineering Leadership - Oversee technical triage, bug escalation, and root-cause workflows. Partner with engineering to accelerate time-to-resolution on complex platform issues. * Managed Services & Monitoring - Own proactive monitoring operations and managed service delivery for large SaaS customers - ensuring uptime, SLA adherence, and reliability across health and analytics products. * Customer Health & Escalation - Lead escalation management for critical accounts. Build playbooks that protect customer relationships during incidents and prevent churn through proactive intervention. * Metrics & Operational Excellence - Define and own KPIs - CSAT, MTTR, SLA attainment, ticket deflection - and drive continuous improvement using data and tooling. * Cross-Functional Partnership - Be the voice of the customer in product planning. Close the loop between support signals and roadmap decisions. Collaborate with Sales, CS, and Implementations on handoff quality. ## Related Videos - [What Developers Get Wrong About Application Quality](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/233-what-developers-get-wrong-about-application-quality) - [Improving quality with Agentic AI with Rovo Dev and Xray](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2005-improving-quality-with-agentic-ai-with-rovo-dev-and-xray) - [What if your HR software adapted to you, not the other way around?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100259-what-if-your-hr-software-adapted-to-you-not-the-other-way-around) - [Collaboration Quantified: Lessons from Open Source Developer Networks](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1422-collaboration-quantified-lessons-from-open-source-developer-networks) - [Delete the roles, deploy the skills](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2104-delete-the-roles-deploy-the-skills) - [Integrate your Cognitive Assistant with 3rd-party DBs and software](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/249-integrate-your-cognitive-assistant-with-3rd-party-dbs-and-software) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Best Companies to work for in London: Top 25 Companies in 2023](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/187-best-companies-to-work-for-in-london-top-25-companies-in-2023) - [Best Paying Remote Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/255-best-paying-remote-jobs) - [Best Paying Jobs in Technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/256-best-paying-jobs-in-technology) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Promotion Interview Questions: How to Answer and Get the Job](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/413-promotion-interview-questions-how-to-answer-and-get-the-job)
