Descripción del empleo

Solvd is an AI-first advisory and digital engineering firm delivering measurable business impact through strategic digital transformation. Taking an AI-first approach, we bridge the critical gap between experimentation and real ROI, weaving artificial intelligence into everything we do and helping clients at all stages accelerate AI integration into each process layer. Our mission is to empower passionate people to thrive in the era of AI while maintaining rigorous ethical AI standards. We’re supported by a global team with offices in the USA, Poland, Ukraine and Georgia.

We are looking for a seasoned Senior Project / Delivery Manager with strong delivery acumen and the ability to navigate complex software development environments across various engagement models and delivery contexts.

We need a delivery leader who can shape, lead, and own delivery. Someone who brings a product-oriented mindset, combines strategic thinking with hands-on delivery excellence, and demonstrates strong people and stakeholder management in multi-cultural, distributed, and fast-paced environments.

Responsibilities:

• Pre-sales & engagement shaping:
• Act as the PM lead in pre-sales activities, collaborating with Solution Architect, Business Analyst, Engineers, and sales to shape proposals.
• Drive project scoping, estimation, risk assessment, and planning to inform delivery models and commercials (GM, T&M, Fixed Price, etc.).
• Create realistic delivery roadmaps and resourcing plans.
• Participate in client presentations and proposal pitching, anticipatingobjections and mitigating delivery risks from the outset.
• Project & delivery management:
• Lead full-cycle delivery of software development projects from initiation to closure - ensuring delivery of value, not just scope.
• Own project delivery across timeline, cost, scope, and quality - actively managing trade-offs.
• Design fit-for-purpose delivery processes based on project type, size, and client context
• Track and optimize project financials (budget, margins, burn rate), while ensuring delivery health.
• Drive collaborative and transparent delivery with cross-functional teams (Engineering, QA, UX, etc).
• Proactively manage risks, issues, dependencies, and change requests.
• Continuously engage with clients as a trusted advisor, manage expectations, and enable transparency and alignment.
• Ensure effective communication between distributed teams, maintaining engagement and clarity in multi-time zone settings.
• Team & people leadership:
• Set clear direction and expectations for delivery teams, balancing autonomy with accountability.
• Create a safe, inclusive, and performance-oriented team culture.
• Mentor and coach team members on delivery excellence, client interaction, and continuous improvement.

What success looks like:

• Projects are predictable and under control - with early indicators, not reactive firefighting.
• Delivery model matches project context - no "one-size-fits-all".
• Clients feel informed, supported, and trust the delivery.
• Teams feel led, not just managed.

Key qualifications:

• Experience:
• 5+ years of software project/delivery management experience, including leading complex, multi-team initiatives.
• 3+ years of pre-sales experience, shaping solutions and delivery proposals.
• Proven track record managing different types of projects (T&M, Fixed Price, Agile, hybrid) in outsourcing, nearshore/offshore contexts.
• Hands-on experience setting up and running project processes tailored to the delivery context, not just applying frameworks.
• Familiarity with product development life cycles and working with product managers and stakeholders across the SDLC.
• Experience working in or with companies like EPAM, Accenture or similar delivery organizations is a strong advantage.
• Experience with AI/ML projects is a plus (understanding model lifecycle, data dependencies, AI-specific delivery challenges).
• Skills:
• Strong business acumen with the ability to balance client value and delivery feasibility.
• Deep understanding of Agile, Scrum, Kanban, Waterfall, and hybrid approaches, and when to apply each.
• Proficiency in SDLC, project tracking tools (e.g., Jira, Confluence) and software.
• Excellent stakeholder management, communication, and negotiation skills across different seniority levels and cultures.
• Ability to manage distributed cross-functional teams.
• Solid understanding of metrics that matter in delivery: velocity, throughput, forecast accuracy, team health, margin, etc.
• Mindset:
• Outcome- and value-driven - not just checking deliverables.
• Process-aware but not process-heavy - pragmatic, adaptive.
• Collaborative and transparent
• Product-oriented - understands long-term product thinking, not just project milestones.
• AI-literate and curious - open to innovation and enabling teams to leverage modern tools.

Languages & certifications:

• English: B2/C1.
• PMP (preferred).
• Certified Scrum Master / Agile certifications (nice to have).
• AI project management (a plus).
