Senior Technical Delivery Manager

🚀 Senior Technical Delivery Manager | Freelance | Bucharest (hybrid, 3 days/week) | €400–500/day

We’re looking for 2 Senior Technical Delivery Managers to join the platform engineering organisation of a global financial markets data and infrastructure provider. This is not a traditional project management role. Success is measured by business outcomes, delivery health and technical credibility, not by sticking to the plan.

What you’ll do

• Own product initiatives end to end, from shaping and discovery through build, release and operational adoption
• Work with Product and Engineering leadership to turn strategy into delivery plans tied to measurable outcomes
• Lead delivery across the full SDLC, with quality, security and production readiness built in from the start
• Engage credibly with engineers and architects on architecture, environments, releases and dependencies
• Manage cross-team dependencies and risks, and run effective Agile/Lean operating rhythms
• Use delivery metrics to improve predictability, throughput and quality, moving teams from status reporting to insight-led decisions
• Give concise, executive-grade updates, lead governance forums and, where applicable, own the product budget
• Coach teams and peers to raise delivery maturity, and contribute to shared playbooks

What we’re looking for

• Proven delivery of complex, cross-functional software or platform initiatives in a product-led engineering environment
• Strong SDLC knowledge and technical fluency across environments, releases, quality and operability
• Confidence using metrics to understand delivery health and drive improvement
• Experience with senior stakeholders and governance/risk frameworks, ideally in regulated environments
• A track record of improving ways of working, not only executing existing plans
• Able to join architecture discussions and help teams manage technical debt and trade-offs
• Experience in a large, matrixed organisation and on multi-quarter programmes
• Based in Bucharest and available to work on site 3 days a week

What’s on offer

💰 €400–500 per day, freelance/B2B

🏢 Hybrid: 3 days a week in the Bucharest office, 2 remote
