Morphology

implementor = implement (transparent) = implement + or

Clear agentive formation from the verb 'implement' meaning 'to put into effect'; 'implementor' = 'one who implements'.

Etymology

Implementor comes from implement (from implere 'to fill') and the ending -or meaning 'one who does'. So an implementor is a person who 'fills' a plan with action and makes a decision or system happen.
