Technical Consulting Manager - Account Lead

About the Position

Join SQUER as a Technical Consulting Manager - Account Lead, guiding major enterprise engagements and collaborating with clients to develop efficient software solutions. With us, you are right in the middle of innovative technologies, MVP mindset, and AI-first approaches. We consider ourselves AI-native: we are curious about how AI is reshaping our field and actively explore and integrate it into our daily work, from ideation to delivery. Making a real impact and delivering high standard quality while staying authentic and treating each other with respect and fairness are prerequisites for all our projects and a core value within the team.

You’re the kind of person who feels at home in complex enterprise environments - someone who can dive deep into technical discussions, connect the dots across teams, and bring clarity to high-stakes situations. We’re looking for a technically strong, thoughtful, and collaborative personality who can guide one of our major enterprise engagements, support our SQUERies in the clients context, and co-create sustainable solutions with our client.

Responsibilities

• Technical Ownership: Responsibility for technical direction, architectural alignment, and overall delivery coherence across a large enterprise engagement (including planning and monitoring projects, budgets, and operational metrics).
• Cross-Team Collaboration: Close alignment with multiple engineering teams to ensure shared understanding, consistent quality, and smooth execution.
• Technical Sparring: High-level exchange with engineers, architects, and senior stakeholders to bring clarity into complex technical environments.
• Enterprise Navigation: Confident handling of large organizations, legacy landscapes, and multi-layered stakeholder structures.
• Capability Alignment: Identification of new opportunities, expansion within the engagement to enable cross- and upselling - matching them with the right SQUER expertise.
• Stakeholder Partnership: Direct interaction with key client stakeholders up to C-Level, providing technical orientation and decision-support.
• Delivery Stability: Structured oversight of capacity, forecasting, and budgets to ensure a reliable, high-quality delivery environment.

Requirements

• Technical Depth: Strong background in software engineering, architecture, or enterprise-scale systems, with the seniority to guide others.
• AI-native: You actively use AI-powered tools (e.g., code assistants, LLM-based workflows) to amplify your productivity and quality.
• Enterprise Experience: Familiarity with large organizational structures such as insurance or banking, and their operational dynamics.
• Systems Understanding: Ability to grasp complex technical landscapes, dependencies, risks, and constraints in multi-team setups.
• Opinionated Leadership: You bring a strong, well-reasoned point of view on architecture and organizational setup - not afraid to take a stance, challenge existing patterns, and guide the client toward better decisions.
• Communication Excellence: Ability to articulate technical topics clearly, confidently, and audience-appropriately - fluently in German and English.
• Collaborative Influence: Leadership through clarity, alignment, and technical guidance rather than formal authority - enabling teams and stakeholders to move in the same direction.
• Partnership Mindset: Commitment to long-term collaboration, team cohesion, and sustainable technical impact.
