The Role

We are a fast-moving SaaS company looking for a Technical Delivery Manager to sit at the intersection of Engineering, Product, and Support. This is a critical delivery and process leadership role — not a coding role — but you must think like a developer, communicate like a project manager, and operate like someone who gets things done.

You will serve as the primary layer between our engineering teams and senior technology leadership, owning the day-to-day health of our development lifecycle. You will be responsible for ensuring stories are well-defined before development begins, sprint ceremonies are run efficiently, teams are protected from scope creep and mid-sprint

interruptions, and that AI-assisted development practices and quality standards are upheld across all teams.

This role reports directly to the SVP of Engineering and is expected to be a force multiplier — freeing up senior leadership from reactive Jira management and status chasing so they can focus on strategy, architecture, and roadmap.

Your Responsibilities

• Delivery Management
• Manage and monitor multiple Jira projects and boards simultaneously, ensuring accuracy, hygiene, and visibility across all active initiatives
• Run and facilitate sprint planning, daily standups, retrospectives, and backlog grooming sessions
• Track sprint velocity, identify blockers early, and escalate risks before they become problems
• Provide daily/weekly status summaries to senior leadership — ensuring it is clear, concise, and actionable
• Own sprint reporting and delivery metrics
• Story Definition & Refinement
• Partner closely with Product Managers to ensure user stories are fully defined, acceptance criteria are clear, and edge cases are documented before a story is assigned to a developer
• Challenge incomplete or ambiguous stories — do not let under-defined work enter a sprint
• Develop and enforce story templates and definition-of-ready (DoR) standards across all teams
• Reduce back-and-forth between engineers and Product by acting as the translation layer between business intent and technical execution
• Team Protection & Process Guardrails
• Establish and enforce clear protocols to prevent mid-sprint scope changes, ad hoc
• Support requests, and unsanctioned work from derailing engineering teams
• Act as the first line of communication for Product and Support inquiries that come in during active sprint — triage, document, and route appropriately
• Own the intake process for new requests and ensure proper prioritization before anything touches the engineering backlog
• Quality & AI Tooling
• Champion the adoption of AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, etc.) across engineering teams — identify gaps in adoption and drive consistent usage
• Ensure engineering teams are delivering production-grade code by holding teams accountable to unit test coverage requirements, QA use case documentation, andcode review standards
• Work with QA to ensure test cases are written and reviewed as part of the story lifecycle, not as an afterthought
• Stay current on AI tools and delivery best practices — bring recommendations to leadership proactively
  

• 5+ years of experience in a technical project management, scrum master, or delivery management role within a software/SaaS company
• Proven experience managing multiple Jira boards and projects simultaneously — including workflow configuration, not just ticket creation
• Demonstrated ability to write, refine, and enforce user story standards in collaboration with Product teams
• Strong understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and Agile/Scrum methodology
• Experience working cross-functionally across Engineering, Product, QA, and Support teams
• Comfortable working asynchronously and in overlap with US-based stakeholdersBackground that started in software development, QA, or business analysis before moving into delivery/program management
• Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools (Copilot, Cursor, ChatGPT for dev workflows, etc.)
• Experience in a startup or scale-up environment where processes were built, not just followed
• Certified Scrum Master (CSM, PSM I/II) is a plus but not required
