Tomorrow.io's Customer Delivery and Operations team sits at the center of the company, connecting the Government and Enterprise business units to the technical organization. We own the full lifecycle of customer programs, from pre-sale technical engagement through post-sale delivery and operational support. This role will focus on international government programs: complex, high-stakes engagements with national meteorological agencies, defense ministries, and civil aviation authorities across Asia, Latin America, the Pacific, and beyond. This role is for someone who delivers results across borders, time zones, and organizational boundaries. We are looking for a hands-on operator, not a program governance layer, but a leader who personally drives complex international engagements to successful outcomes. You will own programs end to end: You bring the right people together, drive the next steps, and ensure momentum does not depend on someone else pushing it forward. That means having command of every detail: the contract terms, the technical requirements, the stakeholder map, the risks, and the critical path forward. You will be expected to identify and resolve blockers proactively, close gaps between customer expectations and delivery, and maintain momentum across multiple engagements simultaneously. You will join a small, high-output team in a fast-moving company where the operating model is still maturing. There is no large program office behind you. You will be expected to build the frameworks and processes you need, not wait for them to be handed to you. The right candidate sees that as an opportunity, not a limitation. What You’ll Do Your programs deliver on time, within scope, and with zero surprises to leadership or the customer. Contract milestones are tracked, invoicing is clean, and compliance artifacts are complete without being chased. Government stakeholders in your programs trust you personally, not just the company. They come to you directly when something needs attention because you have earned that access through consistent follow-through. Internal teams (Science, Product, Engineering, Legal) treat your programs as well-run and easy to support because you bring clear requirements, realistic timelines, and full context, not last-minute fire drills. You run multiple concurrent programs across different countries and regulatory environments without dropping threads. Each one has a clear status, a clear next step, and a clear owner for every open item. When a new deal enters the pipeline, you take an active role in driving the pre-sale engagement, including deal reviews, POC scope, and ensuring the technical and financial picture is solid.. Risks surface early in your programs. You identify issues before they escalate and bring proposed mitigations alongside the diagnosis. You raise the bar for the teams around you. Business Development teams produce stronger scoping because you challenge them to think through requirements before engaging the technical organization. Your programs become the reference point for what well-run delivery looks like. What You'll Own Program Delivery Own and drive the full lifecycle of international government programs: contract kickoff, solution delivery, POC execution, operational deployment, and ongoing support. Translate signed contracts into executable program plans with defined milestones, deliverables, ownership, and accountability, and drive follow-through across all stakeholders. Manage scope, schedule, budget, and technical risk across multiple concurrent programs in diverse regulatory and operational environments. Ensure all contract deliverables, including documentation, reporting, invoicing, and compliance artifacts, are completed accurately and on time. Stakeholder Management Serve as the primary point of contact for international government customers on active programs. Build direct relationships with decision-makers and technical counterparts. Drive alignment across internal teams: Legal, Finance, Product, Science, Engineering, and Customer Success. Bring the right people together, resolve blockers, and maintain program momentum. Navigate international procurement processes, contracting norms, cultural expectations, and compliance requirements with the confidence that comes from direct experience in the regions where we operate. Manage relationships with external partners, subcontractors, and integrators involved in program delivery. Pre-Sale Support Lead, alongside Business Development, on active government opportunities by participating in deal reviews, validating POC scope, and ensuring technical and financial analysis is complete before commitments are made. Bring operational perspective into pre-sale conversations: what is realistic to deliver, what risks exist, and what the program will actually require. Contribute to pre-proposal and proposal response efforts where program execution credibility is a differentiator. Governance and Reporting Report program health, risks, and progress to senior leadership on a regular cadence with clear, honest assessments. Build and maintain program tracking, governance frameworks, and reporting standards that work for our scale and pace. Provide guidance and governance support to regionally distributed team members involved in program execution. What You Bring 8+ years of hands-on program or project management experience delivering complex technical programs for or with international government customers. This must include direct delivery responsibility, not advisory or consulting roles where execution sat with another team. Direct experience working with government agencies outside the United States: national meteorological services, defense ministries, civil aviation authorities, disaster management agencies, or similar. You understand how international government procurement and contracting works because you have lived it. A track record of personally owning and delivering programs end to end in environments without extensive institutional support. You have built the structures and processes needed to execute, not just operated within existing ones. Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent programs across different countries, time zones, and regulatory frameworks without losing control of details or timelines. Strong cross-functional influence skills. You have a track record of getting things done through teams you do not manage: engineering, science, legal, product. You know how to align people, resolve conflicts, and create urgency without formal authority. Excellent communication skills in English (written and spoken). You can write a clear program status, run a structured review, and hold your own in a room with senior government officials. Willingness to travel internationally as programs require. While the role is remote-based, meaningful in-country presence will be expected when customer relationships or program milestones demand it. Strong Plus Experience with weather, climate, earth observation, or environmental monitoring technologies. Familiarity with SaaS or Data-as-a-Service delivery models in a government context. Experience navigating both solicited (RFP/RFQ/tender) and unsolicited procurement paths in international government markets. Commercial acumen: understanding deal economics, pricing structures, contract negotiation dynamics, and how delivery decisions affect margin. Additional languages relevant to our international markets (Spanish, Portuguese, Thai, Bahasa, French, or others). Experience in a high-growth startup or scale-up environment where you had to build the operating model while running programs. If you have reached this point and you are super excited but not sure you check all the boxes - we still want to speak with you! Your passion is priceless. Other things can be learned.
