GEMBA CONCEPTS · TECHNOLOGY DIVISION

 · JOB DESCRIPTION

Technical Delivery Manager – Services LOCATION Bengaluru (Hybrid) ABOUT GEMBA CONCEPTS EXPERIENCE 5–8 years REPORTS TO Chief Technology Officer TYPE Full-time Gemba Concepts helps manufacturers and enterprises improve how their operations run. Our technology division builds and runs Gemba Connect, a suite of enterprise SaaS products spanning warehouse management, logistics, ERP, and applied AI/ML, deployed across 30+ active client accounts in manufacturing, pharma, FMCG and retail.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for a technical leader to own Gemba's services business end to end: delivery, people, commercials and reporting. You'll run every client implementation and custom development engagement, build and manage the team that delivers them, and be the single point of accountability to clients and leadership for how services perform. You've written production Java code, can read a Spring Boot service and a SQL execution plan, and have since hired, reviewed and led delivery teams. The product roadmap stays with product leadership; everything we deliver to clients runs through you.

WHAT YOU'LL OWN Services business ownership

• Own the health of the services portfolio: delivery, client satisfaction, billing milestones and account growth.

• Run post-sale SOW execution. Ensure milestones are hit and billed on time, and follow up with finance and clients on receivables.

• Grow accounts by converting change requests and enhancements into scoped, priced, billable work.

• Track effort, utilisation and margin by account; act when an engagement turns unprofitable. Delivery

• Run multiple concurrent client implementations, owning scope, timeline, cost and quality.

• Plan and run sprints with Tech Leads: grooming, estimation, capacity planning, reviews and retros.

• Own go-lives (UAT, cutover, data migration, hypercare) and post-go-live support SLAs.

• Maintain RAID logs and delivery dashboards; flag risk early, with a proposed fix. Requirements and change control

• Be the single intake point between consulting teams, clients and engineering; convert requirements into user stories with testable acceptance criteria.

• Baseline scope and run a formal change-request process. Every change is priced in effort, cost and date before it's accepted.

• Make sure what's agreed is documented before it's built. People and hiring • Plan services headcount against the delivery pipeline and run hiring end to end (role definition, interviews, closing) at a high bar.

• Run goal-setting, regular 1:1s and performance reviews for the services team; give input on promotions, compensation and performance plans.

• Grow Tech Leads and senior engineers into people who can own accounts independently.

• Own team retention and morale. Know who's at risk before they resign. Gemba Concepts · Technology Division Page 1GEMBA CONCEPTS · TECHNICAL DELIVERY MANAGER – SERVICES Reporting

• Publish monthly services MIS to leadership: revenue billed, collections, on-time delivery, SLA adherence, utilisation, hiring and attrition.

• Contribute the services section to quarterly board reporting.

• Run monthly or quarterly business reviews with key client stakeholders. Technical oversight

• Work with Tech Leads on design reviews, integrations (ERP, WMS, third-party systems) and non-functional requirements.

• Lead incident triage and root-cause reviews on client escalations; track corrective actions to closure.

• Coordinate with DevOps on environments, CI/CD and release windows.

• Uphold security and compliance controls (e.g., SOC 2) across delivery. Improving how we deliver

• Drive adoption of AI-assisted development and testing tools, and measure whether they actually raise throughput per engineer.

• Tighten estimation accuracy, definition of done and release discipline across the services team. MUST-HAVES

• 5–8 years in software, including 2+ years as a hands-on Java developer and 2+ years in delivery or project management.

• 1+ year leading a team of 5+ directly, including hiring and performance reviews.

• Strong working knowledge of Java and Spring Boot. You can review a PR, understand how a service is structured, and challenge an estimate.

• Solid SQL: schema design, writing and debugging queries, and understanding of indexing, transactions and production issues such as slow queries and connection pool exhaustion (SQL Server/Azure SQL, PostgreSQL or MySQL).

• Hands-on exposure to cloud platforms (Azure preferred, AWS/GCP acceptable).

• Working experience with the commercial side of client engagements: SOWs, milestone billing and change orders. Margin tracking is a plus.

• Track record of delivering enterprise B2B software to external clients across multiple parallel engagements.

• Proficiency with Jira or Azure DevOps, Confluence and Git-based workflows.

• Clear communication. You can present to a client CXO, write a board-ready MIS, and give an engineer hard feedback. GOOD TO HAVE

• Domain experience in manufacturing, supply chain, warehousing, logistics or ERP.

• Background in an IT services firm or the services arm of a product company.

• Familiarity with microservices, REST API design and message queues.

• Experience delivering AI/ML features.

• Exposure to SOC 2 or ISO 27001 audits.

• Certifications (PMP, CSM, PMI-ACP) are welcome but won't substitute for a delivery and team-building track record. WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE IN YOUR FIRST 6 MONTHS

• 85%+ of implementations go live on the committed date.

• Billing milestones are invoiced on time, and receivables ageing is visibly down. • Every active account has baselined scope, a live RAID log and a change log.

• Services hiring is on plan, with near-zero regretted attrition.

• Leadership gets a monthly services MIS without having to chase it. WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH The services delivery team (engineers, Tech Leads, BAs, QA), product squads, DevOps, consulting teams, finance and client stakeholders.

WHY JOIN Own a real business line with direct access to leadership. Build the team and operating model your way. Work on enterprise products in active growth, including applied AI.

8

Mandatory (Company) - Candidates from B2B SaaS Product companies will be prioritised. Candidates from Big 4 firms — Deloitte, KPMG, PwC, and EY — will also be considered.

9

Mandatory (Note 1): Not looking for implementation engineer but someone who handles the implementation projects. In their current or most recent role, the candidate must be the accountable owner of implementation projects (primary client point of contact, owns the project plan and go-live), not a hands-on specialist executing the build.

What you'll do

Own a client end to end. Learn their business, find what to automate or rebuild, and lead the work that ships it.

Turn business problems into technical solutions sit in the call, understand the real problem, design the fix, and decide how it gets built.

Stay hands-on. You'll still write code, build integrations, and work with APIs every day.

Build on whatever the client runs Zoho, Salesforce, Azure, similar platforms, and custom apps where needed.

Run delivery: scope it, sequence it, ship it, support it. The timeline is yours.

Review code and designs. Mentor the developers on your projects and unblock them fast.

Be the escalation point when something breaks or an integration misbehaves.

Own client communication on the technical side status, tradeoffs, bad news, early.

Keep the bar high: clear docs, clear updates, clear commit history.

What we're looking for

4–7 years shipping software, with real depth in REST APIs and system integrations.

Experience leading projects or small teams — the person others check with before they build.

Strong with business platforms (Zoho, Salesforce, or similar). Much of the leverage lives there, not in custom code.

You can sit with a non-technical client, understand the problem, and come back with a working solution.

Still enjoy building. This is technical leadership, not coordination.

Self-driven. You'll often be the senior-most engineer on the account.

Why you'll love this role

Full ownership from first call to delivery — you run projects, not a ticket queue.

Direct access to clients and leadership. Your decisions ship the same week.

Constant variety: new systems, new problems, new builds.

A step into technical leadership without giving up the hands-on work.

What You'll Bring

• A dev background — enough technical depth to understand engineering trade-offs, speak credibly with engineers, and translate technical work into business value
• A strong desire to learn, take ownership, and collaborate effectively
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills — not just fluency in language, but the ability to communicate at the right level of abstraction and add real value in every conversation
• Prior experience in sales or a client-facing capacity, with a demonstrated ability to identify opportunities and sell — pitching value, not just capability
• Proven ability to manage projects and deliver results
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to independently define and execute tasks
• Technical/Engineering background or MBA preferred
• Understanding of Agile methodologies, Scrum, and Sprints is a plus
• Familiarity with tools like Jira and Confluence is a plus
• Comfort working in a high-ownership.

What We Value

• Extreme ownership – you take responsibility for outcomes and drive work end-to-end
• Ability to execute independently and define problems, not just solve assigned tasks
• A strong product mindset – willingness to talk to customers, understand problems deeply, and define direction when needed
• The ability to build trust and sell value, not just deliver output
• High standards, autonomy, and a bias toward action.
