- Signalling) Positions: One Delivery Manager per practice Location: Bangalore / Chennai / Noida Experience: 12–18 years in telecom professional services, including 4+ years leading delivery Role Summary Infinite Computer Solutions is seeking Delivery Managers to own end-to-end professional services delivery for Nokia across our core network practices. This is a hands-on delivery leadership role, not a coordination role. The successful candidate will personally hold the technical depth to challenge designs, review solutions and unblock engineers, while simultaneously driving standardisation, automation and a culture of engineering excellence across the account. We are looking for leaders who set direction rather than administer it.

Key Responsibilities Delivery Ownership

- Own delivery commitments, milestones and quality for all professional services engagements within the assigned practice.
- Manage scope, effort estimation, staffing and utilisation against contracted deliverables.
- Serve as the primary delivery interface for Nokia stakeholders — project managers, solution architects and account leadership.
- Drive proactive risk identification, mitigation planning and transparent escalation.
- Govern delivery through structured reviews, published metrics and explicit RAG status.
- Maintain genuine working command of the practice domain; participate directly in design reviews, MOP validation, integration troubleshooting and root cause analysis.
- Review and approve HLD/LLD, test strategies and cutover plans before they reach the customer.
- Act as the final technical escalation point within the practice.
- Set and enforce engineering quality standards across the delivery team.
- Build and maintain a common delivery framework for the practice — templates, checklists, MOPs, acceptance criteria and reusable design patterns.
- Eliminate project-specific improvisation; move every engagement onto a repeatable baseline.
- Institutionalise lessons learned so a fix applied once becomes a standard applied everywhere.




- Define and track delivery KPIs consistently across engagements.
- Identify manual, repetitive and error-prone activities across the delivery lifecycle and build the business case to automate them.
- Drive automation of configuration, validation, health checks, migration and reporting activities.
- Set measurable efficiency targets — effort reduction, cycle time, first-time-right percentage — and hold the team to them.
- Contribute reusable assets to the wider Nokia BU automation programme, and consume from it rather than rebuilding.
- Track technology direction within the practice domain and translate it into capability plans for the team.
- Contribute solution ideas and differentiators into pre-sales and proposal responses.
- Publish internally — reference architectures, whitepapers, playbooks — and represent Infinite's capability in customer technical forums.
- Shape the practice roadmap rather than executing only against what the customer asks for.
- Build, mentor and retain a strong engineering team; develop SMEs and successors within the practice.
- Set a high standard for ownership and dependability, and hold the team to it consistently.
- Communicate direction clearly so every engineer understands how their work connects to the account outcome.
- Create an environment where engineers raise problems early, propose improvements and take initiative without being asked.
- Recognise contribution visibly and address underperformance directly.
