Software Engineering/Development:
Software Delivery Manager

We are seeking a Software Delivery Manager to join our growing team. This role sits at the intersection of information systems, software development, and operations, driving the delivery of web-based clinical platforms used for medical imaging review and data workflows. The Software Delivery Manager will bring structure to a fast-moving environment - translating business and clinical needs into clear technical requirements, organizing work into manageable increments, and ensuring teams deliver high-quality, reliable solutions. This role requires strong technical fluency, hands‑on project ownership, and the ability to operate effectively in a flexible, evolving environment.

Job Description:

• Collaborate with information systems, software development, testing, product, and business stakeholders to gather requirements, define scope, and align priorities and deliverables
• Own the end-to-end delivery of projects and larger platform features and enhancements, breaking down ambiguous requests into actionable, trackable work
• Translate business and clinical software needs into clear, testable requirements and maintain supporting documentation to ensure alignment across teams
• Organize and manage backlogs in Jira, implement lightweight sprint structures where appropriate, and create visibility into active work, risks, and timelines
• Ensure smooth hand-offs between teams, identify gaps early, and resolve blockers to keep work moving forward
• Transition release planning toward more structured, milestone-driven releases, including quarterly planning and progress tracking
• Work closely with development and DevOps to understand and manage Git‑based workflows, branching strategies, environments, and deployment processes
• Establish clear milestones and hold teams accountable for delivery while maintaining strong working relationships
• Ensure requirements and deliverables are defined clearly enough to support testing, validation, and regulatory expectations

Core Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field or equivalent experience
• 5+ years of experience in technical project management, product delivery, or similar roles delivering web-based platforms or complex software systems
• Strong understanding of software development workflows, including Git‑based version control, branching, environments, and release processes
• Hands‑on experience using Jira (or similar) to manage backlogs, sprints, and delivery tracking
• Working knowledge of Agile/Scrum methodologies with the ability to apply them pragmatically
• Strong project management for the entire project life cycle and self‑motivated to follow through completion
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for non‑technical stakeholders
• Experience in clinical systems, medical imaging, highly regulated environments, photography, imaging domain knowledge, or experience working with image‑based systems
• Familiarity with validation processes or FDA‑related workflows
• Project management certifications (PMP, CSPO, or similar)
