Software Implementation Technical Lead

Job Title: Software Implementation Technical Lead – Customer Success (Unifize)

Location: India (Full-time)
Work Mode: Hybrid (US time zone collaboration required)

About Unifize

At Unifize, we’re building the AI-native product suite for regulated manufacturing companies. Our platform is designed to unify Quality, Operations, and R&D in a single collaborative system.

Today, life sciences and other regulated manufacturers rely on a patchwork of disconnected tools, eg, QMS, DMS, PLM, MES, spreadsheets, and email, to manage their processes. This fragmentation slows down innovation, increases compliance risks, and forces teams to waste time manually connecting the dots.

Unifize changes that by bringing process, documentation, and communication together in one place. Whether it's managing CAPAs, resolving deviations, launching new products, or preparing for audits, Unifize enables teams to work faster with full traceability and audit readiness built in.

What makes Unifize different:

• No-code configuration for rapid deployment and adaptation
• Collaboration embedded in every record, not siloed in email or chat
• Context-aware AI that suggests actions, detects risks, and enhances productivity
• Flexible architecture that supports expansion across QMS, DMS, MES, PLM, CMMS, and more

We’re already working with leading companies in the life sciences and manufacturing sectors. Our customers start with one use case and consistently expand, with 100% net expansion to date.
