- Act as an escalation point for Pune-based staff on operational or interpersonal matters.
- Support SDLC evolution (Scrum, ShapeUp) and champion AI-assisted development tools (Claude, Copilot) across teams.
- Own the onboarding playbook for new Pune-based engineers.
- Maintain structured communication rhythms across US, UK, and AU timezones.
What We're Looking For
Required
- 8+ years in program management, delivery management, or engineering operations, ideally in a software product company.
- Experience coordinating delivery across 5+ concurrent engineering teams.
- Strong understanding of Agile delivery frameworks with practical experience improving delivery performance.
- Excellent English communication skills (written and verbal) with the ability to work effectively across multiple timezones.
- Experience in distributed, multi-timezone engineering organizations.
- Experience partnering with HR on people operations or onboarding.
- Based in Pune (or willing to relocate).
Preferred
- Experience in a product company that transitioned from contractors to FTEs.
- Familiarity with Azure DevOps, Jira, or similar tools.
