About the role

We're hiring a delivery manager in Medellín to run client engagements for Medallo.dev. You'll keep scope clear, work directly with engineers, and keep clients informed in English and Spanish.

Job Responsibilities

• 5+ years of relevant experience
• Run client communication in English and Spanish, including kickoffs, weekly updates, demos, and follow-ups that match what shipped
• Own client engagements from kickoff through delivery: scope, plan, milestones, and a written status the client can trust
• Turn client requests into work engineers can execute: priorities, acceptance criteria, and decisions captured in writing
• Work with engineers day to day to unblock access, dependencies, and open questions, and protect time for deep work
• Manage scope and change: make the tradeoffs explicit, keep the plan honest, and elevate when dates or outcomes are at risk
• Coordinate review, QA, and release readiness so work ships in small, verifiable increments
• Keep delivery status current — progress, risks, and effort — so the team can represent the engagement accurately
• Be in Medellín on hybrid days to work with the local engineering team in person

Qualifications

• Experience managing technical software projects and working directly with engineers
• English at CEFR C1 or higher, spoken and written, for client calls and written updates
• Professional Spanish (native or C1+) for the local team and for clients
• Based in Medellín and available for a hybrid schedule
• Able to turn client outcomes into engineering work
• Clear writing: updates, scopes, and decisions that stay accurate after the call

Nice to Have

• Experience delivering software for US or other international clients
• Background in staff augmentation, fixed-scope product builds, or both
• Enough familiarity with modern web products (APIs, TypeScript, React) to follow technical discussions
• Experience with Linear (preferred), Jira, or a similar tracker
• Experience coordinating QA, UAT, or release checklists
• Comfort using AI-assisted tools as part of a daily workflow

The role is hybrid in Medellín and full-time.

Compensation is up to COP 10,000,000 per month, depending on experience.
