Delivery Manager

Role Overview We are looking for an experienced Delivery Manager to own end-to-end delivery of multiple concurrent turnkey engineering software projects. This role requires a strong blend of technical program management, client relationship management, and team leadership to ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the quality standards our clients expect.

The ideal candidate has managed multiple software/product engineering projects simultaneously in a services or turnkey delivery environment.

Key Responsibilities

Multi-Project Delivery Management Own delivery of 4–8 concurrent turnkey engineering software projects across CAD/BIM, Cloud, Data & AI, or Digital Twin domains. Define project plans, resourcing, milestones, and delivery roadmaps in collaboration with technical leads and architects. Track scope, schedule, budget, and quality (SQBC) across all projects; proactively flag risks and drive mitigation.

Ensure adherence to SDLC/Agile processes, coding standards, and QA gates across teams. Client & Stakeholder Management Act as the primary point of contact for client stakeholders on project status, escalations, and roadmap discussions. Run governance cadences — status calls, steering committee reviews, QBRs — with clients across geographies (India/US/Middle East time zones).

Manage scope changes (change requests, SOWs) and contract renewals in coordination with sales/account teams. Team & Resource Management Lead and mentor project leads, tech leads, and cross-functional engineering teams (developers, QA, architects) assigned across projects. Plan resource allocation and utilization across projects; work with talent acquisition on hiring/staffing needs.

Conduct performance reviews, career development planning, and capability building for delivery teams. Process & Governance Establish and continuously improve delivery frameworks, PMO processes, and reporting dashboards (RAID logs, burn-down, utilization, margin tracking). Ensure project profitability by tracking effort vs.

estimate, managing scope creep, and optimizing resource utilization. Drive knowledge management and reusable frameworks/accelerators across projects to improve delivery efficiency. Risk & Escalation Management Identify delivery risks early (technical, resourcing, scope, client relationship) and drive resolution. Own escalation management, ensuring timely and transparent communication to leadership and clients.

Requirements

10–15 years total experience in software/IT services, with at least 4–6 years as a Delivery Manager / Program Manager / Senior Project Manager managing multiple projects simultaneously. Proven experience delivering turnkey/fixed-scope software engineering projects for global (preferably US/Europe) clients. Strong understanding of software engineering practices — Agile/Scrum, DevOps, QA/testing, cloud deployment (AWS preferred).

Experience managing engineering/CAD/BIM/CFD/simulation software projects is a strong plus (domain exposure to Autodesk Platform Services, PLM/BIM, or engineering simulation preferred but not mandatory). Demonstrated ability to manage P&L/margins for projects, including resource planning, estimation, and utilization tracking.

Excellent client-facing communication skills; experience handling escalations and steering committee discussions with senior client stakeholders. Strong people leadership — managing and growing teams of 30–100+ engineers across multiple projects. PMP / PRINCE2 / CSM / SAFe certification preferred. Bachelor's/Master's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or related field; MBA is a plus.

Benefits

Opportunity to lead delivery for marquee global engineering brands. Exposure to cutting-edge technology — Cloud, AI, Digital Twin, CAD/BIM platforms. Flat, collaborative culture with strong learning & development support. Competitive compensation and growth path to Head of Delivery / BU Head roles.
