Technical Project Manager

We are looking for a Technical Delivery Manager to own the end-to-end delivery of complex software and technology programs for our clients and internal stakeholders. You will be the bridge between engineering teams and the business — translating goals into executable plans, keeping work moving, removing blockers, and making sure what we ship is on time, on budget, and of high quality.
 

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who is technical enough to engage credibly with architects and engineers, and polished enough to manage senior client and executive relationships.
 

Delivery ownership
 

• Own the planning, execution, and successful delivery of multiple concurrent technology projects or programs, from kickoff through go-live and hypercare.
 

• Define scope, milestones, release plans, and success criteria with stakeholders; manage changes to scope through a clear change-control process.
 

• Track and report on delivery health — schedule, budget, resourcing, quality, and risk — using clear metrics and dashboards.
 

Team leadership and agile execution
 

• Lead cross-functional teams (developers, QA, DevOps, architects, business analysts, designers), often across multiple time zones and including offshore or vendor partners.
 

• Run or oversee Agile/Scrum ceremonies (sprint planning, stand-ups, reviews, retrospectives) and continuously improve team velocity and predictability.
 

• Coach teams on delivery best practices and foster a culture of accountability, transparency, and continuous improvement.
 

Technical engagement
 

• Partner with solution architects and engineering leads on technical approach, estimates, dependencies, and trade-offs.
 

• Understand and help steer work involving cloud platforms, APIs and integrations, CI/CD pipelines, and data/application migrations.
 

• Ensure quality gates, testing strategy, security, and release-management practices are followed.
 

Stakeholder and client management
 

• Serve as the primary point of contact for client and business stakeholders on delivery matters.
 

• Lead steering committees and status reviews; communicate progress, risks, and decisions clearly to both technical and executive audiences.
 

• Manage expectations, negotiate priorities, and escalate issues early with proposed solutions.
 

Risk, budget, and governance
 

• Proactively identify, track, and mitigate risks, issues, and dependencies (RAID management).
 

• Manage project budgets, forecasts, and resource plans; track utilization and profitability where applicable.
 

• Ensure delivery complies with internal governance, contractual commitments, and applicable regulatory or security requirements.
 

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in technical project, program, or delivery management for software or IT projects.
 

• Proven track record delivering multiple complex projects simultaneously, with budgets and teams of meaningful size (e.g., 8–25+ people).
 

• Strong working knowledge of the software development lifecycle and Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban, SAFe); comfortable running hybrid Agile/Waterfall where needed.
 

• Solid technical foundation — able to discuss cloud, APIs, micro services, databases, and DevOps practices with engineers.
 

• Hands-on experience with delivery tools such as Jira, Confluence, Azure DevOps, Smart-sheet, or MS Project.
 

• Excellent written and verbal communication, with experience presenting to senior leadership and clients.
 

• Strong problem-solving, negotiation, and conflict-resolution skills.
 

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field — or equivalent practical experience.
 

• Authorization to work in the United States.
 

Preferred Qualifications
 

• Certifications such as PMP, PgMP, CSM/PSM, SAFe (SA/RTE), or PMI-ACP.
 

• Prior hands-on experience as a software engineer, QA, or business analyst.
 

• Experience in a client-facing consulting, professional services, or systems-integrator environment.
 

• Domain experience in [industry – e.g., healthcare, financial services, telecom, energy, or state & local government].
 

• Experience managing distributed or offshore delivery teams.
