Leads delivery execution across the three delivery teams while operating as a senior, hands-on technical leader above Technical Lead level.

- Set and enforce engineering quality standards across the delivery organization
- Provide hands-on technical leadership across architecture decisions, design reviews, code-quality practices, and complex engineering issue resolution
- Resolve cross-team dependencies alongside the Agile Coach (RTE)
- Coordinate release readiness and launch-position verification against the SOW's committed deliverables
- Act as the primary delivery-management escalation point before issues are elevated to the Client Service Organization
Required skills & experience
- 12+ years engineering or delivery management experience across multi-team software programs
- Robust grasp of sprint delivery health metrics, capacity planning and staffing management
- Experience setting and enforcing engineering quality standards across concurrent teams
- Must be technically stronger than a Technical Lead, with hands-on experience in modern application development, system design, architecture oversight, code reviews, and production issue resolution
- Comfortable owning release-readiness and launch-position verification processes
- Proven ability to mentor Technical Leads and senior engineers while remaining hands-on enough to challenge solution choices and guide implementation quality
- Experience escalating and resolving delivery risk in a client-facing engagement
Preferred qualifications
- Experience managing staffing/backfill across a 25+ person delivery organization
- Familiarity with AI/RAG delivery quality standards specifically
Education
B.Tech/B.E. in Computer Science or a related field, MBA preferred, or equivalent practical experience; PMP or PgMP certification an advantage.
