Who We Are WillowTree, a TELUS International Company, partners with the world’s leading brands to help them tackle their thorniest challenges - be it launching new digital products, delivering personalized marketing at scale, or harnessing the power of data and AI to transform their business. These mission-critical initiatives aren’t solved by a single discipline. Great digital is a team game - it requires seamlessly combining strategy, engineering, design, data science, marketing, and more. Other firms have bolted on these capabilities - as digital natives, we’ve built them into our teams from Day 1. The result? Top and bottom lines that grow, alongside our client’s capabilities.

Check out how we have impacted our clients' digital portfolios over the years.

In January 2023, WillowTree was acquired by TELUS International (Symbol: TIXT). The combined company brings an unparalleled ability to deliver seamless, trusted, digitally-enabled experiences across any channel a customer might choose - be it mobile apps, websites, voice skills, chatbots, email, service agents, or associates. More recently, WillowTree and TELUS International Digital Solutions joined forces to provide a global strategy/design/delivery consulting firm paired with a comprehensive managed services capability with practitioners in the US, Canada, India, Brazil, Guatemala, El Salvador, and across the world.

Location Our SA Director is an integral part of our Commercial team at WillowTree. To ensure the SA Director can maximize their impact, this role will maintain an in-office presence in a hybrid capacity (Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays) in one of our offices: Charlottesville, VA (HQ), Durham, NC, Columbus, OH, Boston, MA, or Vancouver, BC.

The Opportunity As a

You’ll leverage your software delivery experience and technical expertise to architect, plan, and initiate new projects. While working with a delivery team, you’ll support in-flight projects and implement our client partner’s vision. SA Directors bring their dynamic capabilities to a variety of scenarios, such as: speaking with prospective clients about our capabilities, leading architecture and discovery projects for new client initiatives, and working with a delivery team to implement their vision. During downtime, SAs act as roving catalysts to support in-flight projects, with L&D time spent growing their technology expertise in a selected specialization (e.g. AWS).

Delivery:

Play the lead role in technical architecture and discovery projects, using consulting methods to refine the product and technical architecture of client projects

Subject Matter Expertise:

Own a “technology vertical”, encompassing solution design, platform selection, implementation support, and thought leadership (e.g. AWS, Content Management Systems, hybrid mobile frameworks, etc)

Roving Catalyst:

Enhance existing project teams with architectural account-level guidance or specific subject matter expertise

Qualifications

Multi-platform familiarity, with expertise in one or more of the following:

Front-end mobile technologies (iOS, Android, Web/JS)

Backend cloud and/or enterprise platforms (AWS/Azure)

Content management systems, analytics platforms, and other 3rd party frameworks

Experience delivering software in an agency/client-service environment

Experience having commercial conversations involving budgets and fees

Experience with software estimation, work planning, and building project plans within time/cost constraints

Ability to break down complex ideas to both technical and non-technical individuals

You're excited to learn the principles of mobile software development

Experience quickly iterating and refining a product vision with a client by offering multiple approach options

Passion to apply modern processes that transform client organizations (e.g. continuous delivery, rapid iteration, and agile-inspired methodologies)

Excellent verbal and written communication skills

Ability to use repeatable frameworks and best practices to incorporate new technologies or concepts

Appreciation for the wider client enterprise, beyond a single project or initiative

Desire to expand an account to holistically service a client

Equally comfortable working in pre-sale and post-sale environments

An eye for detail and an ability to navigate ambiguity

Our differences, both visible and invisible, benefit our teams, our communities, and the products we craft. That’s why WillowTree strives to build a team with diverse backgrounds, skills, and perspectives. You’ll work hard here; however, we’ll balance that with a culture that
