Resource Manager (Montevideo, Uruguay | Hybrid in office)

At SunnyData, a leading Databricks technology partner, our mission is to empower customers with scalable architectures, robust data engineering pipelines, seamless data consumption layers, and advanced ML and AI applications. As a Resource Manager, you will own consultant staffing, utilization, and deployment across SunnyData's global delivery organization — making sure the right consultants land on the right engagements at the right time, and that leadership always knows exactly where capacity and demand stand.

This is not a recruiting role. Think of the Resource Manager as a project manager for staffing: you coordinate with senior leadership on consultant availability, upcoming projects, and utilization — owning the forecasting, tracking, and reporting that keep the entire practice on the same page. You'll be on-site and in the halls every day, working directly with our CTO, Senior Principal Architects, and capability leads.

• Own the day-to-day staffing engine — consultant availability, bench management, and deployment — ensuring assignments, skills, certifications, and forecast data are accurate and current every single day.

• Walk the halls and build trusted relationships with the CTO, Senior Principal Architects, capability leads, and practitioners to stay ahead of project pipeline, skill needs, and workforce priorities.

• Manage demand forecasting, supply planning, and demand-supply gap analysis with sales and delivery leadership — so hiring and staffing signals arrive ahead of the pipeline, not behind it.

• Monitor and report on utilization, billability, and bench metrics; run the weekly staffing cadence and own the data research, analysis, and reconciliation behind it.

• Resolve schedule conflicts, manage rollover planning, and coordinate engagement transitions to minimize bench time and protect client delivery.

• Conduct regular practitioner connects to understand each consultant's skills, aspirations, and constraints — and partner with leadership on development plans and Databricks certification drives.

• Relentlessly organized and persistent — you chase down answers across a fast-moving organization and don't let staffing details slip through the cracks.

• 4+ years in resource management, staffing/deployment, or workforce planning within a systems integrator, consultancy, or professional services firm — you understand billable delivery, utilization pressure, and how staffing decisions drive revenue.

• Hands-on experience with capacity planning, bench management, utilization tracking, and demand forecasting for a billable workforce.

• Strong data skills — comfortable owning reporting, reconciliation, and analysis in Excel/Google Sheets and being the source of truth for staffing data.

• Exceptional stakeholder management — able to build credibility with senior technical leaders, manage competing priorities with diplomacy, and push back constructively when the data says no.

• Fluent English and Spanish, and based in (or willing to relocate to) Montevideo with regular on-site presence.

• Nice to have: Experience at a Databricks, cloud, or data/AI-focused SI supporting nearshore delivery for US clients.

• Nice to have: Experience with PSA or resource planning tools (we use Ruddr; similar tools include Kantata, Mosaic, or Mavenlink) and reading sales pipeline from a CRM like HubSpot to inform demand forecasting.

Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Human Resources, or a related discipline preferred.
