Technical Delivery Manager

Summary

Commence is focused on data-centric transformation in healthcare, aiming to enhance health outcomes through efficient processes and quality data-driven solutions. The Technical Delivery Manager will oversee the delivery of technical projects, ensuring effective collaboration across engineering, product, data, and operations teams while maintaining accountability for project outcomes.

Responsibilities

• Own the planning, coordination, and delivery of technical projects
• Work with engineering leads, product managers, and domain experts to translate business requirements into project plans, delivery milestones, and measurable outcomes
• Drive end-to-end project management including scope definition, scheduling, dependency management, risk mitigation, and stakeholder communication
• Maintain project tracking, sprint alignment, and reporting that gives stakeholders real visibility without adding overhead
• Identify and manage dependencies across software development, data engineering, infrastructure, and client delivery teams
• Work alongside engineering teams building cloud-native platforms, APIs, and healthcare data solutions
• Participate in technical discussions with enough depth to add value, not just take notes
• Evaluate technical approaches with a critical eye
• Facilitate project reviews, design discussions, and decision-making forums to remove blockers and keep teams aligned
• Continuously improve delivery processes, tooling, and documentation

Skills

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• 3–6 years of experience in technical project management or software delivery, with a background that includes hands-on engineering, development, or solution architecture work
• Solid understanding of modern software development including cloud-native architectures, microservices, APIs, and distributed systems
• Working experience with engineering stacks such as .NET, Java, React, Python, or JavaScript frameworks. Enough depth to follow technical conversations and ask the right questions
• Ability to coordinate cross-functional teams and manage competing priorities across concurrent work
• Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences
• Experience with Agile delivery frameworks and tools such as Jira, Confluence, or similar project management platforms
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving Agile environment where priorities shift and iteration speed matters
• Ownership mindset. When you see a problem, you take it on and drive it to resolution rather than waiting for direction
• Ability to develop solution options when faced with trade-offs and bring recommendations, not just questions
• Experience working with distributed teams and coordinating delivery across multiple stakeholders
• Experience with healthcare data, interoperability standards (FHIR, HL7, claims data), or regulated environments is a plus
• PMP, Agile, or Scrum certifications are a plus but not required
