✅The Role
As we scale, we are looking for a Technical Delivery Manager to evolve our ways of working. Our engineering structure has successfully expanded across three core groups (Infra, AI/ML, and Product), and we need a systems‑thinker to ensure our delivery framework matches our ambition. This isnt a role for a project coordinator; it is for an architect of execution who will reclaim engineering capacity, silence the noise, and make our commitments ironclad.
The Role: How You Fit In
In our ecosystem, roles are clearly defined to ensure excellence:
* Product Managers own the What & Why (The Roadmap).
* Engineering Leads own Quality (Technical Execution).
* Platform Support owns Resolution (Frontline Response).
* YOU (Delivery Manager) own the How & When. You own the delivery system that makes flow predictable and commitments reliable.
Core Outcomes
* Reclaim Engineering Capacity: You will ensure our technical leaders spend their time on planned, roadmap‑aligned innovation—not firefighting or ad‑hoc operational coordination.
* Reliable Commitments: You will make ETAs credible. Through your leadership, stakeholders will trust the plan, and proactive communication will replace “deadline surprises.”
* Shield Engineers from Noise: You will build the “airlock.” Client escalations and ad‑hoc asks will move through structured intake systems, protecting our engineers’ deep‑work state.
Responsibilities And Duties
* Design the Delivery System: Design and operate a unified framework across all product squads. Standardize planning cadences and metrics (Velocity, Cycle Time, Throughput) while keeping the process lightweight and value‑driven.
* Cross‑Squad Visibility: Act as the connective tissue between Infra, AI/ML, and Product. Maintain a live view of dependencies and blockers, surfacing risks before they disrupt a sprint.
* Strategic Capacity Planning: Support Engineering and Product leads with honest, data‑backed capacity modeling to surface staffing gaps well in advance of failure points.
* Intake & Triage Governance: Partner with Platform Support to ensure client escalations and business‑critical bugs travel through a system, never landing directly in an engineer’s DMs.
* Actionable Data Reporting: Turn metrics into decisions. Use Lead Time and Trend Analysis to challenge assumptions, expose bottlenecks, and facilitate honest conversations about trade‑offs between scope, speed, and quality.
* Cross‑Functional Partnership: Build trusted relationships with Customer Success, Operations, and Leadership. Be the credible voice that accurately represents engineering reality.
Essential
* Experience: 5‑7 years in Technical Program Management or Delivery Leadership within a high‑growth engineering organization.
* Systems Thinking: You understand the mechanics of delivery. You can explain how WIP limits, branching strategies, or dependency lags impact the bottom line and design structural fixes for them.
* Scaling Expertise: You know how to standardize processes across diverse functions (like Infra vs. AI) without creating soul‑crushing bureaucracy.
* Data Mastery: Expert‑level proficiency in Jira/Linear (or equivalent). You use data to reset stakeholder expectations and challenge optimistic (but unrealistic) planning.
* Technical Fluency: You have sufficient technical knowledge of the product and tech stack to be credible with engineers.
