📋 Description

• Own the end-to-end design, validation, and continuous improvement of call and omnichannel routing (voice, chat, SMS, email) and queue architecture in a Salesforce + Amazon Connect environment and legacy platforms (e.g., CometChat, RingCentral), with a focus on long-term integration and platform unification. • Diagnose and remediate agent availability and handoff problems (role boundaries, transfer logic, wrap-up states, overflow behavior) to reduce unnecessary transfers and improve first contact resolution. • Design and implement skill-/language-based routing and load-balancing strategies to ensure equitable distribution of work across teams and bilingual agents; build sensible fallbacks for non-bilingual scenarios (interpreter/Language Line or escalation flows). • Simplify and standardize IVR/IVR-like flows, queue definitions, and business rules to reduce complexity and operational debt while preserving necessary segmentation by program/market. • Partner tightly with Product/Engineering, IT, and the Salesforce/Amazon Connect owners to scope, prioritize, test, and roll out routing/tool changes; translate operational requirements into engineering tickets and acceptance criteria. • Lead and support the evaluation, implementation, and utilization of AI-driven tools to enhance agent efficiency, improve customer experience, and optimize call center performance. • Partner with Data & Analytics to define, build, and own near-real-time and historical dashboards and reports (service level, ASA, abandonment, transfer rates, occupancy, FCR, channel deflection, interpreter usage, platform uptime/MTTR) and distribute insights to operational leaders. • Create and maintain incident/runbook playbooks for partial/full telephony or platform outages (fallback routing, manual queueing, communications templates, stakeholder escalation matrix). Lead incident coordination during outages and run RCAs afterward. • Establish operational thresholds and escalation triggers (e.g., service level, ASA, queue depth, interpreter wait times) and codify the actions managers should take when thresholds are breached. • Provide staffing and forecasting inputs to Workforce Management (forecast assumptions, shrinkage, required bilingual coverage, recommended overflow pools) and ensure WFM rules align with routing logic. • Coach and enable front-line managers: how to interpret routing/queue dashboards, enforce schedule adherence, manage handoffs, and prioritize queue clean-up or queue-specific playbooks. • Ensure all contact center design and incident responses comply with HIPAA and any relevant security/privacy policies; partner with Compliance/Security for regular reviews. • Drive process improvement initiatives (root cause elimination for chronic queue issues, transfer reduction, IVR deflection, automation opportunities) and lead cross-functional projects to deliver them. • Maintain thorough documentation: routing maps, queue definitions, role handoff guides, test plans, and release notes for any configuration changes. • Act as the operational escalation point for complex or recurring call center issues and recommend technology, process or people needs to the Sr. Director as the program scales.

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in business, operations, healthcare administration, or related field (or equivalent experience) • 10+ years of experience in contact center operations, with deep ownership of routing design, queue logic, and workflows • Extensive hands-on experience architecting and optimizing routing in platforms like Salesforce Service Cloud, Amazon Connect, Genesys, Five9, RingCentral, Zendesk, or similar • Strong analytical and data fluency, including experience building or partnering on dashboards for service level agreements, abandonment, transfer rates, occupancy, interpreter usage, and channel performance • Proven ability to diagnose and resolve operational routing issues, including agent availability, skill-based routing, wrap-up logic, overflow behavior, and handoff failures • Experience writing or collaborating on technical requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria for Product/Engineering teams • Demonstrated success in influencing cross-functional stakeholders (Engineering, Product, IT, Compliance, Operations) • Experience developing and maintaining incident response playbooks, and coordinating outage communication in partnership with technical teams • Deep familiarity with HIPAA/privacy expectations for patient-facing contact centers • Ability to coach and enable frontline leaders indirectly, including guiding managers on how to interpret routing data, understand queue dynamics, and drive accountability • Exceptional communication skills, with an ability to simplify complex routing logic for both technical and non-technical audiences.
