Our flagship product, the FIOR AI Gateway, acts as SSL for AI — giving enterprises certificate-based identity, policy enforcement, and quantum-safe cryptography for autonomous AI agents. The platform pairs a high-performance Rust gateway agent with a multi-tenant control plane and role-specific portals, used by regulated organisations across finance, energy, defence, and aerospace.

Role

FIOR is looking for a Software Delivery Manager to coordinate the day-to-day delivery of software across requirements, development, testing and release.

You will turn business priorities into clear work for engineering, maintain the delivery backlog, coordinate workloads and dependencies, support release planning, and keep stakeholders clear on progress, risks and decisions.

This is a hands-on role in a fast-moving product company, working directly with the CEO, CTO, Field CTO, engineering and operations.

What you will do

• Turn business requirements into clear features, tasks and acceptance criteria.
• Maintain the delivery backlog across product work, defects, support cases and technical improvements.
• Coordinate priorities, developer workload, dependencies and delivery dates.
• Track work through development, testing and release.
• Identify blockers, delivery risks and conflicting priorities early.
• Coordinate testing, business acceptance and release readiness.
• Produce clear release notes and concise delivery updates.
• Keep delivery records, decisions and requirements current.
• Help improve delivery practices where delays, rework or ambiguity appear.

What we need

• Around 2-4 years' experience in software delivery, project delivery, development coordination or a similar role.
• Good understanding of the software development lifecycle.
• Experience turning business requirements into clear development work.
• Experience managing backlogs, priorities, defects and delivery plans.
• Familiarity with Jira, GitHub Projects, Azure DevOps or similar tooling.
• Working knowledge of Agile, Scrum or Kanban.
• Strong written communication, organisation and stakeholder management.
• Enough technical understanding to work confidently with developers on dependencies, estimates and delivery risks.
• Experience with SaaS, APIs, cloud, CI/CD, AI or security products would be useful, but is not essential.

What success looks like

Developers have clear, prioritised work. Requirements are understood before development starts. Capacity and dependencies are visible. Blockers are identified early. Stakeholders receive accurate delivery updates. Releases are organised, documented and meet their acceptance criteria.

The role owns delivery coordination and visibility. Business priorities remain with the relevant business or product owner. Technical design and engineering standards remain with engineering leadership.
