About the company

thinkbridge

The year was 2014. Software development was becoming increasingly commoditized. Speed and cost issues were taking priority over strategy, execution, and long-term scalability. Growth-stage companies were getting caught in the middle of it all. If they turned to one of the many smaller dev shops that emerged, they wouldn’t get the strategic capabilities and thinking needed to make their project successful. But if they went with a big consulting firm, the costs would be prohibitive. That’s when a group of consulting and technology veterans came together over a new idea for software development. They knew that developers would get better results if they had more time to think through their projects before rushing straight to coding. And they wanted to start an employee-focused company that was all about enabling developers to do their best work. So they created a new model for outsourced development where developers would spend 80% of their time thinking about the solution and 20% coding it. This would give smaller companies the strategic thinking needed to compete with much larger corporations. Today, thinkbridge is how mid-market companies turn into tech disruptors, drive growth, and increase their valuations. Middle market leaders are no longer stuck between the limitless costs of big consulting firms and the limited capabilities of smaller dev shops. With a unique “think bigger, move faster, go further” approach to technology innovation, thinkbridge has achieved a client NPS rating in the 90s and a client retention rate of over 90%. thinkbridge. There’s a new way there Think Bigger | Move Faster | Go Further

Requirements

About Role:

Experience Level: Mid-level - Delivery Principal with a combined 8+ years of experience, including 3+ years in software development and 5+ years in client-facing and product management roles. Brings strong technical consulting capabilities, deep SaaS market fluency, and proven expertise in AI-driven automation and system optimization 

Role Overview: We are seeking a Delivery Principal; you will transform how our clients work by uncovering hidden inefficiencies and designing systems that cut wasted time and unlock growth. You will lead discovery sessions to map current chaos, then architect future-state workflows that executives can understand and our developers can effectively build. Working alongside Project Managers and Automation Developers, you will be technical enough to design systems that work, but business-savvy enough to sell the vision, without getting bogged down in the actual implementation.

What You'll Do

What is expected of you?
  • Lead and communicate strategic discovery to surface bottlenecks, quantify impact, and understand priorities with client stakeholders from frontline staff to C-suite.
  • Model current-state processes and data flows, then sketch future-state workflows that take advantage of better tools, data, and automation.
  • Evaluate and select the right mix of SaaS, AI, and integration options, balancing speed, cost, and scalability for each client's unique context.
  • Draft phased implementation roadmaps that guide our development teams and keep executives bought in throughout the transformation.
  • Translate technical trade-offs into clear narratives that move both CFOs and developers, without getting lost in jargon.
  • Coach client stakeholders through change, building champions and addressing concerns as new systems roll out.
  • Partner with our Automation Developers to validate designs, test edge cases, and ensure delivery hits the mark.

What we expect from you as a part of this job? 

  • Technical teams respect your designs because they're grounded in reality and well-documented.
  • Business leaders trust your judgment and cite your insights in their own presentations.
  • Clients adopt your blueprint, see measurable gains, and come back asking "what else can we build together?" 
  • Implementation runs on time and on budget because your workflows and requirements are clear and grounded. 
  • Developers can understand and quote your data diagrams without rewriting them.
  • You become the go-to advisor executives invite into strategic discussions.

Requirements:

Must have skills:

  • Must have 8+ years of combined experience spanning technical consulting, hands-on process design, and end-to-end solution delivery—built on a foundation of 3+ years in software development followed by 5+ years in client engagement, product management, and Delivery Principal transformation within consulting, agency, or internal transformation environments.
  • Process design mastery: You can diagram complex workflows and spot bottlenecks quickly, whether using formal frameworks or digital whiteboards.
  • Systems thinking and data architecture: Comfortable with relational schemas, API patterns, and designing clean hand-offs between systems without getting lost in technical weeds
  • SaaS market fluency: You track the shifting landscape and know when to recommend existing tools versus custom builds across CRMs, ERPs, and automation platforms
  • Cross-industry experience showing you can learn new domains quickly and get to the heart of what matters: process, people, and tools 
  • Strong facilitation and communication skills with proven ability to lead stakeholder interviews and earn trust up to the C-suiteTechnical literacy around integrating tools and workflows and modern automation, with understanding of when to use no-code versus custom development.
  • AI and automation expertise: You must have the ability to identify practical AI applications and have built demos or use cases that helped non-technical leaders see the possibilities 

Good to have skills   

  • Hands-on familiarity with popular no-code tools like Zapier, Airtable, or Make that our clients use.
  • Familiar with mid-market CRMs and ERPs and general implementation & integration quirks.
  • Understanding of how mid-market companies think about budgets, timelines, and resources when adopting new technology.
  • Basic SQL or Python skills for quick data analysis or proof-of-concepting.
  • Experience helping non-technical teams adopt new workflows without overwhelming them.
