## Description (the employer's text)

Thank you for your interest in Uncountable Implementations!

### About Uncountable

Science moves slowly, not because researchers aren't brilliant, but because their tools haven't kept up. Uncountable is changing that. We build a unified R&D platform used by leading chemists, material scientists, and biologists to speed up how new products are discovered, developed, and brought to market.

Founded by engineers from MIT and Stanford, and trusted by enterprise R&D organizations across chemicals, pharmaceuticals, advanced materials, and food & beverage, Uncountable is on a mission to accelerate industrial R&D by an order of magnitude. We're a high-impact team that moves fast and gives people real ownership from day one.

### The Role

As an Implementation Program Manager, you own a customer's implementation from scoping to go-live, across every phase. You are the person the customer's R&D leadership looks to for the plan, the timeline, and the answer to "where are we?" Inside Uncountable, you are the person the delivery team looks to for direction.

Each implementation runs with a defined team. Account Managers own the customer relationship, adoption, and growth. Scientific Implementation Managners own the technical design. Scientific Implementation team members execute the build, working heavily with AI agents that handle repetitive configuration and setup. The Implementation Program Manager sits at the center: you own the project management and make sure the whole team delivers what was scoped, on time and within hours.

This is not a pure project management role. You need enough scientific and platform depth to scope a lab's real workflows, push back on a design that won't hold up, and earn the trust of PhD-level researchers. You also need the operating discipline to run status, stage gates, and sign-offs on several enterprise accounts at once. If you have led scientific software rollouts, or run implementations as a consultant, and want to do it with a modern, AI-first delivery team, this is that role.

### What You'll Do

### Own the implementation, scoping to go-live

Lead scoping with the customer: define requirements, sites, teams, and workflows in and out of each phase, and agree on what a realistic first go-live includes

Turn scoping into a phased plan with a timeline, deliverables, and post-sales commitments the delivery team can execute against

Own on-time go-live for every phase and the hours spent against what was scoped

### Run the project

Run status meetings with the customer and internally, and keep a current, written status the AM and leadership can read without asking

Manage stage gates and customer sign-offs, so each phase closes cleanly before the next one opens

Plan and run onsites and workshops, from agenda and logistics to who attends from both sides

Spot scope creep and overruns early, and raise change requests or resourcing asks with clear justification rather than absorbing them quietly

### Drive integrations and cross-team work

Scope integration requirements with the customer's IT and business teams, and write tickets the Integration Engineering team can act on

Coordinate the enterprise integrations that a go-live depends on, such as sending data to ERP or other enterprise systems

Work with implementation partners and system integrators when a customer brings one, and hold the delivery to Uncountable's standard

### Lead the delivery team on your accounts

Manager the work of the Scientific Implementation Managers & Associates on each account: who does what, by when

Push SIs and the team to use AI agents for configuration and setup, and keep people working on the parts that need judgment

Bring forward what you learn across accounts, so scoping, estimates, and playbooks get better for the next implementation

### Partner with the Account Manager

Keep the AM informed on progress, risks, and customer sentiment, and escalate to them when an issue needs an executive conversation

Sequence future phases jointly with the AM, for example deciding when to bring the next R&D team onto the platform
