The Technical Project Manager, UCaaS owns the delivery of Harbor IT's unified communications and voice implementations from executed agreement through client handoff to support. This is a senior, client-facing role inside the UCaaS onboarding team. The person in this seat runs the full project lifecycle for cloud voice, contact center, and carrier migration work: kickoff and initiation, discovery and data collection, project planning, cutover execution, monitoring, training, and closeout. Unlike a general infrastructure PM, this role carries a real technical component. The Technical Project Manager must understand dial plans, number porting, call flow and routing design, session border controllers, network readiness and QoS, E911 compliance, and the dependencies between the voice platform and the underlying LAN, WAN, and firewall. They translate that technical detail into plans, risk registers, and change orders a client executive can act on. They direct project engineers, field technicians, trainers, carriers, and subcontractors without direct reporting authority. While the UCaaS practice is the primary focus, this role will also require exposure to or management of IT, data network, and/or cybersecurity projects as the delivery pipeline requires. Ultimately this person is accountable for the success or failure of assigned projects, for on-time and on-budget delivery, and for client satisfaction at handoff.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own UCaaS, cloud voice, contact center, and carrier migration projects end to end, from executed agreement through closeout and transition to the Support Center.

• Build and maintain project plans that identify scope, resources, tasks, dependencies, milestones, and timelines, and hold the plan current as conditions change.
• Lead technical discovery and data collection for voice cutovers, including dial plan design, number inventory and porting, call flow and routing requirements, user and device provisioning, E911 and regulatory compliance, and network readiness assessment covering QoS, bandwidth, PoE, and firewall/SBC configuration.
• Coordinate carrier and vendor activity including LOA submission, port scheduling, circuit delivery, and escalation, and hold carriers accountable to committed dates.
• Plan and run cutover events including cutover runbooks, rollback criteria, after-hours execution windows, day-one support coverage, and post-cutover stabilization.
• Document, quantify, and communicate project risk. Mitigate where possible or proceed under documented and accepted risk with client sign-off.

• Manage project budget and margin, issue change orders for out-of-scope work, and prevent eroding project profitability from scope creep. .
• Log hours and project detail in ConnectWise Manage accurately and on time, and keep client configuration records current in the customer database.
