About The Position

Doss is building an Operations Cloud for the real world. A modern, AI-native platform for physical product businesses to manage the flow of goods, dollars, and data in real time, across Procurement, Inventory, Orders, Fulfillment, Finance. Built to replace spreadsheet chaos and rigid, consultant-heavy ERPs. Fast time-to-value, adaptable as the business evolves. Through our Adaptive Resource Platform (ARP) and unified operational data model, teams deploy quickly, automate workflows, and make changes without months of re-implementation. We recently raised a $55M Series B, co-led by Madrona and Premji Invest. Participation from Intuit Ventures, Theory Ventures, General Catalyst, Contrary Capital, and Pathlight VC. DOSS is trusted by fast-growing operators to run critical operations with speed, control, and confidence. About the Role Doss's FD team is the core engine of how we deliver value to customers. As a Forward Deployed Product Manager, you sit at the intersection of product, operations, data, and client partnership -- responsible for translating complex business problems into working solutions on the Doss ERP platform. Every deployment looks different. That's the job. This role is for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and brings genuine intellectual curiosity to hard operational problems. You'll work directly with client leadership, embed in their workflows, and own the implementation lifecycle from discovery through go-live. You'll also leverage AI tooling natively -- not as a novelty, but as a core part of how you work.

Requirements

4-6 years in consulting, technical program management, product operations, or implementation at a technology company; ERP experience is a plus but not required
A systems thinker who can traverse interconnected people, process, and technology problems -- untangle them, and put them back together with clarity
High-intensity by genuine preference -- you've operated in fast-moving environments (startups, consulting, finance) and that's where you do your best work
Technical from first principles -- you can work through hard engineering and logic problems intuitively, not by memorization
Strong analytical mindset; SQL experience is a plus
Fluent with AI tools and excited about applying them to real operational problems -- this isn't optional at Doss
Executive presence and communication skills that hold up in client-facing environments at the director level and above

Responsibilities

Lead end-to-end ERP implementation lifecycles across upper mid-market and enterprise clients -- discovery, product design, configuration, UAT, and go-live
Conduct deep cross-functional dives across client organizations to map business processes, surface requirements, and identify the right solution architecture
Translate complex operational and financial workflows (flow of goods, information, and money) into data models, product configurations, and integrations on the Doss platform
Build new product capabilities within Doss to support enterprise-scale deployments -- you're not just configuring, you're extending the platform
Collaborate with technical teams on integrations and data migrations; you can speak their language
Own client relationships at the operator and director level; support senior-led executive relationships and escalations
Drive retention and expansion by turning successful implementations into client advocacy
Use AI tooling actively and fluently across your workflow -- from process mapping to documentation to analysis -- and contribute to automation initiatives that improve how the team delivers
