Job description

Our solutions improve the quality, efficiency, and productivity of manufacturing processes, while helping our customers reduce quality-related costs and optimize overall industrial performance., As Delivery Manager, you won't just oversee our complex landscape of the projects and their timelines. You will be a change agent at the heart of our development organization - transforming how we plan, execute, and continuously improve delivery across a complex, multi-team, multi-product environment. You will build the practices, the culture, and the people that turn our product ambitions into shipped, customer-ready software.

If you thrive at the intersection of structure and agility, if you know how to lead transformation without losing people along the way, and if you want your work to have a measurable impact on a growing international organization - this role was built for you.

What You Will Drive

Delivery Transformation & Planning

  • Own the translation of product roadmap into a coherent, realistic, and synchronized delivery plan supporting the team in translation of the functional requirements into technical requirements- bridging the world of Product Management and R&D Project Management

  • Oversee delivery across multiple concurrent strategic projects, maintaining visibility on timelines, budgets, scope, and quality

  • Identify and actively manage inter-project dependencies and systemic delivery risks before they become blockers

  • Introduce and embed delivery practices that scale - frameworks that work today and grow with the organization

Cross-Team Synchronization & Stakeholder Leadership

  • Design and facilitate synchronization rituals that work -Planning, Steering Committees, cross-team reviews - making alignment a habit, not a meeting

  • Serve as the connective tissue between Product Management, and engineering teams - orchestrate, help to collaborate and communicate

  • Ensure radical transparency on progress, risks, priorities, and delivery health - no surprises, no comfortable silences - alignment on progress, not on explanations

Continuous Improvement & Organizational Learning

  • Define, track, and report the KPIs that matter - delivery predictability, flow efficiency, team agility maturity, quality at release
  • Diagnose delivery bottlenecks not just as process problems, but as organizational signals - and drive systemic improvements, not workarounds
  • Champion a learning organization mindset: create the conditions where retrospectives lead to real change, experimentation is encouraged, and failure generates insight rather than blame
  • Drive the evolution of our delivery model as the organization grows - from team-level agility to scaled, multi-site program execution

People Development & Coaching

  • Lead, mentor, and grow a team of Project Leaders and Scrum Masters - building capability, confidence, and career paths

  • Define what great project management looks like at Metrologic, across both agile and hybrid delivery models - and make that standard visible and achievable

  • Be the kind of leader people grow under: direct feedback, genuine investment, and the clarity to help people see what they're capable of

  • Support the organization's shift toward greater agility - not as a methodology exercise, but as a genuine cultural transformation

The Environment You Will Step Into

This is a multinational, multi-site organization with engineering teams across Europe, USA, and India, collaborating daily across time zones, disciplines, and product lines. The complexity is real - and so is the opportunity. You will be operating at a moment of intentional growth: new team members joining, new practices being established, and a genuine organizational appetite for transformation., * Delivery plan quality - clear, synchronized scheduling between Product Management and R&D, with committed milestones

  • On-time, on-budget delivery rate - across all active strategic projects

  • Stakeholder satisfaction - measured across internal and external stakeholders at key delivery milestones

  • Agile maturity progression - measurable improvement in team practices, retrospective outcomes, and delivery predictability over time

Why This Role

  • Real transformation mandate - you have explicit organizational support to change how we work, not just manage how we currently do

  • International scope - you'll lead across geographies, cultures, and time zones, with all the complexity and richness that brings

  • Strategic visibility - direct access to executive leadership and product strategy, with your fingerprints on what gets built and when

  • A team worth leading - talented, motivated people who want to grow and are ready for someone to help them do it

Your application will be reviewed without regard to your background or personal views. Our positions are accessible to people with disabilities. We are particularly committed to ensuring professional equality between women and men.

Requirements

Do you have experience in Technical project management?, * 8+ years in technical project management, with at least 3 years in an agile or scaled agile environment

  • Demonstrated experience leading delivery transformation or change management in a software organization

  • Proven track record managing and coaching project managers or Scrum Masters

  • Experience working in or across international, multi-site engineering teams is strongly valued

  • Senior-level command of project and program management frameworks - PMI, PRINCE2, SAFe, Scrum, or equivalent

  • Strong understanding of agile and hybrid delivery models, and the judgment to know when to apply which

  • Hands-on proficiency with delivery and collaboration tooling: Jira, Confluence, and equivalent platforms

  • A change agent - you see organizational friction as a problem to solve, not a condition to accept

  • Strong influencing skills in a matrix environment - you lead through credibility, clarity, and relationship, not hierarchy

  • Exceptional communicator at every level - from engineering teams to executive stakeholders

  • Analytically grounded and data-literate - you make decisions with evidence and explain them with clarity

  • Deeply committed to people development - you measure your success partly by how much the people around you have grown
