Job Description

Itron is innovating new ways for utilities and cities to manage energy and water. We create a more resourceful world to protect essential resources for today and tomorrow. Join us.

We are seeking a Technical Implementation Consultant to lead the technical work required to successfully deploy our SaaS platform for enterprise utility customers. This role is critical to ensuring secure, scalable, and repeatable implementations for customers operating critical infrastructure.
 

The Technical Implementation Consultant serves as the technical owner of implementation workstreams, partnering closely with Customer Success, Product, and Engineering to deliver high‑quality customer deployments. This role focuses on configuration and technical enablement required to bring customers live, including integrations, SSO, data migration, environment configuration, and technical validation.
 

This role is not the overall project or program owner. Instead, it is a hands‑on technical leadership role accountable for ensuring customer environments are implemented correctly and aligned with platform best practices.

This is a high‑impact opportunity within a growing enterprise SaaS organization supporting the Utilities & Energy sector, where technical readiness, security, and reliability are essential.

Location: United States (Remote) with up to 25% travel
 

Duties and Responsibilities:

Technical Implementation Ownership

  • Lead the technical implementation workstream for enterprise customer deployments from kickoff through go‑live, demonstrating accountability for delivery quality and outcomes

  • Conduct technical discovery related to customer environments, identity systems, integrations, data sources, and deployment requirements

  • Translate business and implementation requirements into scalable, customer‑centric technical configuration and deployment plans

  • Define, document, and manage technical design decisions aligned with platform standards and long‑term maintainability

  • Partner collaboratively with Customer Success and Implementation teams to ensure technical execution aligns with the overall rollout strategy

  • Track and document technical implementation activities to support transparency, knowledge sharing, and repeatability
     

Identity, Access, and Security Configuration

  • Lead configuration and troubleshooting of single sign‑on (SSO) and user provisioning using SAML, OIDC, and related technologies

  • Configure tenant setup, authentication flows, role mappings, and access controls to meet enterprise security requirements

  • Collaborate authentically with customer IT and security teams to validate connectivity, certificates, claims mapping, and identity architecture

  • Support enterprise security readiness reviews and document final configurations for long‑term operational success
     

Integrations and Technical Connectivity

  • Scope, design, and configure integrations with upstream and downstream customer systems

  • Lead validation of APIs, file‑based integrations, middleware workflows, and data exchange patterns

  • Troubleshoot and resolve integration issues during implementation and testing with a calm, solutions‑oriented approach

  • Partner with Support and Engineering on complex requirements, defects, or product gaps

  • Establish innovative, repeatable integration patterns and best practices across implementations
     

Data Migration and Environment Configuration

  • Lead planning and execution of data migrations, imports, and configuration deployments

  • Validate source data quality, mappings, transformations, and readiness for import

  • Configure customer environments including templates, workflows, forms, users, permissions, and solution settings

  • Perform technical validation prior to customer UAT and go‑live to ensure reliability and scalability

  • Ensure customer‑specific configurations align with platform standards while supporting flexibility where needed
     

Testing, Validation, and Go‑Live Readiness

  • Support technical test planning for SSO, integrations, data loads, and environment configuration

  • Execute or coordinate technical validation during customer UAT

  • Identify and communicate technical risks, dependencies, and blockers impacting launch readiness

  • Support technical cutover planning and ensure clean handoff to Support and Customer Success teams
     

Scalable Implementation Tooling and Standards

  • Identify recurring implementation challenges and convert them into reusable tools, templates, and standard approaches

  • Define and evolve standard patterns for integrations, data loads, SSO configuration, and environment setup

  • Collaborate with Product and Engineering to shape implementation tooling and platform enhancements

  • Create documentation and technical accelerators that reduce manual effort and improve implementation velocity

  • Recommend product improvements that enhance scalability, reliability, and customer experience
     

Required Skills & Experience

  • 2+ years of experience in solutions consulting, implementation consulting, solutions architecture, or technical deployment roles within enterprise SaaS

  • Proven experience leading technical workstreams for enterprise software implementations

  • Hands‑on experience with SSO technologies such as SAML, OIDC, and SCIM

  • Experience with APIs, integration patterns, and data migration or import processes

  • Ability to translate customer requirements into scalable, supportable technical configurations

  • Strong troubleshooting skills across authentication, integrations, and environment setup

  • Ability to collaborate effectively with customer IT teams, internal Engineering partners, and cross‑functional stakeholders

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to build confidence and trust
     

Preferred Skills & Experience

  • Experience implementing software for utility, energy, industrial, or regulated enterprise customers

  • Familiarity with mobile and web applications used in field or operational environments

  • Experience with enterprise identity providers such as Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), Okta, or similar platforms

  • Experience with configuration‑heavy SaaS applications, workflow tools, or operational platforms

  • Background in technical architecture, enterprise deployments, or customer‑facing solutions engineering

  • Experience with reporting or dashboards using Power BI or similar tools
