Technical Delivery Manager, Installation & MaintenanceLocation: Any Legence location, with remote optionEmployment Type: Full-Time
About the RoleLegence is seeking a Technical Delivery Manager who leads by building. This is a player- coach role in the fullest sense: you'll spend real time in the codebase - designing solutions, writing code, reviewing pull requests, and shipping - while leading a team of engineers and serving as the trusted technical voice for business stakeholders. You keep delivery on track not by administering process, but by understanding the work deeply enough to make the right calls, grow your team, and jump in yourself when it matters.The ideal candidate can present a solution approach to executives in the morning and implement a tricky integration in the afternoon. Deep, practical experience with AI-driven software development and enterprise systems is a must.What You'll Do
Build and Ship
Design and implement solutions hands-on: services, integrations, automation, and prototypes - you write production code, not just review itOwn technical decisions on your initiatives: architecture, build-vs-buy, tooling, and integration approachSet the technical bar through code reviews, pairing, and example - engineers should learn from working alongside youLead AI-driven development in practice: build with AI coding assistants and agentic workflows (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot), integrate LLM APIs into products and internal tools, and show the team how to get real leverage from these tools safelyEnsure solutions integrate cleanly with enterprise systems - ERP/CRM, identity, data platforms, cloud infrastructure - and hold up on security, scalability, and maintainability
Lead the Technical Team
Lead a team of engineers day to day: set direction, assign ownership, and keep the team focused on the highest-value workGrow engineers through hands-on mentorship - pairing, design discussions, and honest, specific feedback rather than annual-review platitudesBuild a strong engineering culture: high standards for code quality and testing, healthy debate on design, and shared ownership of outcomesShape the team itself- participate in hiring, onboard new engineers, and develop senior engineers into technical leadersShield the team from noise and churn; absorb ambiguity from stakeholders and hand engineers clear, well-framed problemsFoster effective adoption of AI development tools across the team, establishing shared practices for where they accelerate work and where human judgment stays in the loop
Engage Stakeholders
Act as the primary technical counterpart for business stakeholders and product ownersTranslate business goals directly into working solutions - shorten the distance between "what we need" and "here it is" with prototypes and demos rather than documentsCommunicate progress, risks, and trade-offs in plain language; earn trust by showing working software early and oftenPush back constructively when a request doesn't make technical or business sense, and bring better options
Drive Delivery (Lightweight)
Keep initiatives moving end to end - scope, sequence, ship - with just enough structure to stay predictableRemove blockers fast, usually by solving the underlying technical problem rather than escalating itCoordinate dependencies across teams and vendors pragmatically; favor working agreements over heavyweight processUse metrics that matter (cycle time, quality, outcomes delivered) instead of ceremony for its own sake
What You BringRequired Qualifications
7+ years building software, including recent, sustained hands-on coding - this is a technical role firstStrong command of at least one modern language (e.g., Python, C#, TypeScript/JavaScript, Java) and comfort picking up others; able to design, build, debug, and ship production systemsDemonstrated experience with AI-driven software development: daily use of AI coding assistants, building with LLM APIs, prompt/context engineering, or shipping Al-augmented features and workflowsSolid experience with enterprise systems and integration patterns: ERP/CRM platforms, REST/event-driven APIs and middleware, identity and access management, cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP), and data pipelinesTrack record of leading delivery of enterprise software initiatives while remaining a hands-on contributorExperience leading and growing an engineering team (or acting as tech lead for one - mentoring, technical direction-setting, and building team culture, without stepping away from the codeExcellent communication skills - able to explain technical decisions to executives, negotiate scope with stakeholders, and mentor engineersWorking fluency with modern engineering practices: CI/CD, DevOps, testing, and iterative delivery
Preferred Qualifications
Experience in the built environment, energy, engineering services, or a related industryFamiliarity with MCP, agentic AI systems, or deploying LLM-based features to productionHands-on integration work with platforms such as Microsoft 365, Salesforce, ServiceNow, or similar enterprise ecosystemsBachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
Who You Are
A builder at heart who happens to be great with people - you'd rather demo a working prototype than present a status deckA pragmatic technologist who measures success in shipped outcomes, not tickets closedCurious and current on AI capabilities, and disciplined about applying them where they create real valueDirect, calm under pressure, and comfortable making decisions with incomplete informationA multiplier - you lead engineers by example, invest in their growth, and make the whole team faster and better
