Technical Delivery Manager - Hourly Contract

Stevens is a strategic advisory and technology firm that partners with companies on high-impact transformation and technology initiatives. We work closely with executive and technology leaders to solve complex problems, identify opportunities, and turn strategy into working solutions.

We’re looking for an experienced Technical Delivery Manager to join Stevens on an hourly contract basis and lead the day-to-day delivery of technical work across client engagements.

You’ll be assigned to a Stevens delivery pod alongside engineers, architects, designers, and other specialists. Working closely with Stevens technical and engagement leadership, you’ll be responsible for turning priorities, requirements, and technical direction into clear, executable work for the team and ensuring that work moves through delivery successfully.

This is not an administrative project management or Scrum Master role. You should be technically fluent, comfortable working with senior engineers and architects, and capable of understanding technical discussions well enough to translate them into structured plans and engineering work.

Depending on the engagement, you will:
- Own day-to-day delivery for an assigned Stevens delivery pod
- Translate priorities, requirements, and technical direction into clear engineering tickets and deliverables
- Work with technical leadership to break complex initiatives into milestones, workstreams, and executable tasks
- Manage and continuously refine engineering backlogs
- Run planning sessions, standups, backlog refinement, retrospectives, and other delivery meetings
- Coordinate engineers, designers, architects, and other specialists across the engagement
- Track progress, dependencies, risks, blockers, and outstanding decisions
- Ensure engineers have the context and requirements needed to execute effectively
- Identify delivery risks early and escalate issues when appropriate
- Maintain clear visibility into engagement status for Stevens leadership and client stakeholders
- Participate in technical planning and architecture discussions
- Communicate effectively with technical and non-technical client stakeholders
- Own delivery follow-through from initial planning through completion

This role is currently limited to contractors located in the United States.
