  • Lead high-performing, distributed delivery teams across backend, mobile, web, data, and AI disciplines, fostering accountability, collaboration, and delivery excellence.
  • Act as the operational bridge between onshore stakeholders and offshore development teams, ensuring clarity, alignment, and cohesive execution.
  • Partner closely with client-side project managers and technical leads, operating as a trusted extension of the client team.
  • Provide mentorship and delivery leadership across technologies including iOS (Swift), Android (Kotlin), React, Node.js, .NET, Python, and cloud-native services.
  • Encourage cross-disciplinary collaboration and continuous learning across evolving technical stacks.
  • Own end-to-end delivery of complex, multi-phase programs, ensuring scope, budget, timelines, quality, and operational readiness are consistently met.
  • Lead delivery for systems involving:
  • AI-powered automation (e.g., voice AI, workflow automation)
  • Event-driven architectures
  • Mobile and web portals
  • Enterprise data integrations (e.g., SAP)
  • Manage phased releases, production readiness, and transition into operations and maintenance (O&M) models.
  • Define, track, and report delivery KPIs, leveraging data-driven insights to guide decision-making and continuous improvement.
  • Apply proactive risk management, especially in environments with compliance, security, and operational reliability requirements.
  • Serve as the primary delivery contact for clients, building trusted, long-term relationships through transparency, consistency, and strategic insight.
  • Navigate complex stakeholder landscapes, including unionized workforces and operational teams that may be skeptical of automation.

Requirements

  • 12+ years in software delivery, technical program management, or engineering leadership.

  • Strong understanding of:

  • AI-enabled workflows and automation
  • Enterprise integrations and data systems
  • Hands-on familiarity with delivery tooling including Jira, GitHub, Azure DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud observability tools.
  • Exceptional client-facing communication skills with experience working in high-stakes, compliance-oriented environments.
  • Ability to operate consultatively thinking beyond immediate deliverables to long-term client outcomes.
  • PMP, Scrum Master, SAFe, or equivalent certifications are strongly preferred.
Benefits
