PpCardo AI builds next-generation technology for asset-based finance, private credit, and structured products. Our platform enables institutional investors, banks, and fintechs to manage complex debt portfolios through AI-driven data management, reporting, and analytics. /ppWe are growing fast, and the quality of our client integrations is a core competitive advantage. Every new client that goes live is a proof point. This role owns that outcome. /ph3The Role /h3pWe are looking for a Senior Integrations Program Manager to own the delivery of all client integration projects end-to-end — from signed contract to production go-live — and to continuously raise the bar on how fast, how reliably, and how scalably we onboard clients. /ppbThis is not a coordination role. This is an ownership role. /b /ppYou will be the most senior person responsible for Cardo AI’s integration capacity. You will define and enforce delivery standards, manage a pipeline of concurrent client implementations, act as a trusted partner to senior client stakeholders, and build the playbooks and tooling that allow the team to scale. You will report directly to the Head of Integrations and work closely with Product, Engineering, and Commercial. /ppThe ideal candidate has operated at a Program or Delivery Director level in a fintech or SaaS context, is fluent in data integration concepts, and has the gravitas to hold a room with a CFO or CTO on the client side. /ph3Key Responsibilities /h3h3Program Ownership Delivery /h3ulliOwn the full integration lifecycle: from kickoff through hypercare to steady-state handoff. /liliMaintain and manage a consolidated roadmap across all active client integrations. /liliDefine and enforce delivery standards, SLAs, and escalation paths. /liliTrack dependencies, risks, and blockers — resolve them, not just report them. /liliDrive integrations to go-live on time, with high data quality and zero surprises. /li /ulh3Capacity Resource Planning /h3ulliOwn the integration team’s capacity model: what can we take on, when, and at what quality level. /liliScope, estimate, and sequence work across Engineering, Data, and Client Success. /liliIdentify and close gaps in tooling, templates, and team capability that are limiting throughput. /liliBuild the processes that allow us to double integration volume without doubling headcount. /li /ulh3Client Executive Stakeholder Management /h3ulliServe as the senior Cardo AI point of contact for clients during the integration phase. /liliEngage confidently with client-side CFOs, CTOs, and Operations Directors. /liliSet expectations, manage scope, escalate commercially sensitive issues to leadership. /liliTurn difficult conversations into trust-building moments. /li /ulh3Process Capability Building /h3ulliBuild and own the integration playbook: from data ingestion templates to QA checklists to runbooks. /liliIdentify workflow bottlenecks and redesign them — systematically, not ad hoc. /liliDefine and track KPIs: time-to-live, data quality rates, re-work rates, client effort scores. /liliEvaluate and introduce tooling (ETL, orchestration, project management) that multiplies team capacity. /liliMentor more junior members of the integration function. /li /ulh3Requirements /h3h3Must‑Have /h3ulli8+ years in a program, delivery, or implementation management role in a technical environment (fintech, SaaS, data platform, enterprise software, or similar). /liliDemonstrated experience owning end‑to‑end technical integrations at program level — not just tracking them. /liliStrong command of data onboarding concepts: data mapping, transformation logic, reconciliation, pipeline QA. /liliTrack record of building delivery processes that scale — playbooks, templates, metrics, tooling. /liliExperience engaging directly with senior client stakeholders (C‑level, VP‑level) in a delivery or consulting capacity. /liliHigh autonomy and ownership mindset — you define the solution, not just execute the plan. /liliFluent English (written and spoken); Italian a plus but not required. /li /ulh3Nice‑to‑Have /h3ulliFamiliarity with structured finance data: loan‑level tapes, ABS/CLO waterfall mechanics, fund NAV reporting, private credit data models. /liliExperience in banking, investment management, asset servicing, or structured finance platforms. /liliHands‑on experience with data orchestration or ETL tools (dbt, Airflow, Fivetran, or similar). /liliProficiency in SQL for data validation and QA. /li /ulh3Why Join Cardo AI /h3ulliOwn an entire function that is central to how we grow — integration velocity is a key commercial differentiator. /liliWork directly with the COO and leadership team with high visibility across the business. /liliJoin at an inflection point: we are scaling from dozens to hundreds of client integrations and building the infrastructure to get there. /liliCompetitive compensation, equity participation, and a team that takes the work seriously. /li /ul /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
