• Partner with Product, Engineering, Data, Operations, Finance, Marketing, Digital, franchisees, and field teams to translate business outcomes into practical restaurant technology solutions.
• Manage pilots and proofs of concept in an IT lab or representative restaurant environment, using findings to improve solution design and rollout readiness.

• Manage vendor and implementation partners, including scope, deliverables, timelines, issue resolution, service expectations, and performance reviews.
• Facilitate governance meetings, status reporting, working sessions, and executive updates that clearly communicate progress, risks, and required decisions.
• Build trusted relationships with franchisees and field support teams by incorporating restaurant feedback and communicating impacts, timelines, training, and support processes.
• Coordinate incident triage and escalation during launch and stabilization periods, ensuring issues are prioritized, communicated, and resolved.
