Agile Delivery Manager (Solution Ownership)
We have a question for you - and it’s something we’re passionate about. Can you imagine a world in which you can truly love your life and your work? Well, we have some good news – creating that world and making this vision a reality is what we get out of bed for; it’s our north star.
But what do we really mean when we talk about loving your life and your work? Let’s look at the ways in which we help our team members to achieve this – and the ‘how’.

LIFE AS AN AGILE DELIVERY MANGER:

A Delivery Manager plays a fundamental role in shaping and delivering amazing software solutions to client challenges during Discovery and Delivery. You will partner with clients to understand the technical and functional challenges they are facing as well as develop implementation and delivery plans that take advantage of emerging technologies at scale. During client delivery you will collaborate with Software Engineers, Quality Engineers, and Experience Designers to ensure that world-class user experiences are understood, validation procedures are aligned, and automation components are delivered.
Within our capability you’ll be seeking to develop and grow your skills and experience, guide and mentor less experienced team members and advocating for progression of our capability on exciting frontiers such as Machine Learning and Generative AI.

We build solutions across a range of established and emerging technologies and techniques according to the needs of our clients. Specifically, you will:

• Be the project expert in Agile software delivery
• Lead single, large development pods either as a stand-alone team or as a single workstream on multi-workstream programs
• Define and work within a project governance framework (i.e., establish team cadence, run Scrum ceremonies, etc.)
• Work very closely with the Product Owner to define the product by identifying requirements, thinking critically about what will make it successful, and writing user stories that are easily consumed by software engineers and effectively communicate the Product Owner’s requirements
• Guide software delivery teams, handle issues and mitigate risks, facilitate and attend meetings, as well as provide project status reporting to management
• Collaborate with the engineering team, in particular the Solution Architect, to define and validate the technical approach, strategy and deliverables for the project
• As the leader of the project team, you’ll also prepare and deliver client presentations and work products
