About the Role

We are seeking a Software Delivery Manager to join our Enterprise Technology Team to help drive day-to-day technical execution across engineering teams, ensuring progress against design milestones, system readiness, and delivery timelines.

In this position, you will report to the Director, Enterprise Technology Operations. This is a hybrid position based in our Dallas, TX office.

As a Software Delivery Manager, you will:

  • Translate high-level business needs into technically feasible and prioritized requirements. Ensure every initiative has clear technical definitions and delivery criteria.

  • Technical Design & Solution Alignment: Partner with engineering leads to understand technical architecture and align roadmaps with execution plans. Drive consistent decision-making by clarifying trade-offs and validating technical feasibility throughout the program lifecycle.

  • Drive clarity and accountability across multiple teams to deliver business outcomes—not just features.

  • Create high-quality technical specifications and process flows for engineers and cross-functional partners.

  • Identify blockers, manage risks, and proactively clear paths to execution without waiting for direction.

  • Facilitate Agile ceremonies and drive adoption of best practices in iterative delivery.

  • Keep internal stakeholders aligned through direct, transparent, and timely communication.

  • Technical Documentation: Create and maintain functional and technical documentation, including process flows, APIs, and integration specs to ensure long-term maintainability and clarity.

We get excited about candidates, like you, because…

  • You have 10+ years of experience managing complex, technical programs in content/media, digital platforms, or SaaS.

  • You have a strong technical foundation—you're comfortable in conversations about APIs, content pipelines, CDNs, and cloud architecture.

  • You've proven your ability to capture business needs and translate them into clear technical specifications.

  • You have a bias toward action—you don't wait to be told what to do; you go figure it out and rally others around the solution.

  • You've successfully managed large cross-functional initiatives involving engineering, product, and operations.

  • You communicate with clarity and confidence, navigating between executive updates and engineering stand-ups with ease.

  • You're fluent with tools like Jira, Confluence, Lucid, Smartsheet, or similar.

  • You hold a bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Bonus if you have:

  • Experience with content lifecycle, streaming platforms, or global content distribution.

  • Familiarity with Agile certifications (CSM, PMI-ACP).

  • Experience in entertainment, anime, or fan-focused media.
