• Remove blockers across teams and enforce ownership, accountability, and timely decision-making.

• Strengthen cross-team collaboration and reduce operational friction through clear communication and expectation setting.

• Represent Delivery Leadership in executive and client forums, providing clarity, maturity, and a calm, authoritative presence.

Governance, Rhythm & Standards 

• Ensure programs consistently follow delivery rhythms: regular program reviews, status updates, RAID maintenance, and decision logs.

• Validate the quality, accuracy, and completeness of program artifacts: plans, risks, communications, metrics, and executive updates.

• Enforce adherence to SDLC practices, release management processes, and delivery governance across assigned programs.

• Establish and maintain high standards for communication, escalation hygiene, and stakeholder engagement.

Communication & Escalation Management 

• Ensure “no surprises” communication to clients and executives through proactive risk and issue escalation.

• Coach program and project leaders on communication: clear problem statements, impact definition, and action-oriented next steps.

• Serve as the escalation point for complex issues requiring senior judgment or cross-functional alignment.

• Improve communication quality across programs, raising the bar for clarity, brevity, and completeness.

Quality, Technical Insight & Operational Excellence 

• Partner with QA and Engineering to ensure test readiness, defect management discipline, and stable release cycles.

• Review and strengthen root cause analyses, ensuring meaningful corrective actions and follow-through.

• Leverage quality data, DORA metrics, and delivery insights to drive continuous improvement and reduce rework or instability.

• 10–12+ years in software delivery, program management, or engineering, including hands-on experience in development, testing, or production support.

• Experience owning client communication and delivery financials, including forecasting, margin, and P&L performance.

• Strong grounding in SDLC, Agile delivery, CI/CD, DORA metrics, and DevOps practices.

• Skilled in risk management, escalation leadership, RCA, and stabilizing at-risk programs.

• Proficient in delivery tooling (Jira, Confluence, Smartsheet, MS Project) and data-driven reporting.

• Executive presence: clear communicator, sound judgment, and ability to lead through ambiguity and pressure.

• PMP, SAFe, CSM, or similar certifications preferred.

Success Measures 

• Predictable delivery across programs, with commitments met and risks surfaced early.

• Team members demonstrate measurable improvement in planning, communication, ownership, and execution discipline.

• Consistent performance management, with clear expectations, timely feedback, and appropriate handling of underperformance.

• Team capability, reducing the need for intervention and increasing independent leadership across programs.

• Steady forward progress on programs, with timely decisions and consistent follow-through.

• Early identification of risks and issues, reducing late surprises and improving delivery stability.
