About the Technical Delivery Lead

The Technical Delivery Lead role is part of our staffing unit and will be embedded on a client site working directly with their project teams. This role will be responsible for driving end-to-end delivery across a complex, composable digital ecosystem spanning Ecommerce, Martech, and Enterprise IT. You will sit at the intersection of strategy, execution, and technical leadership—ensuring that cross-functional teams deliver scalable, high-quality solutions aligned to business outcomes. You will play a critical role in driving cross-functional execution across our Sitecore, Product Information Management (likely Salsify or Akeneo), Meta/Google, Salesforce Data Cloud and Marketing Cloud, and partnership with IT around Azure/ADF/Hyperscale workstreams. We’re specifically looking for someone with strong technical depth, hybrid on-site availability (in-office M-W, remote Th-F), and the ability to elevate coordination across Ecommerce, Martech, and supporting IT teams. You will partner closely with Product, Engineering, Architecture, Marketing, and IT to orchestrate delivery across multiple platforms and vendors. While a lot of the work will be focusing primarily on execution, leadership, technical strategy, and cross-team alignment, you will also need deep technical knowledge to be successful.

• Demonstrated ability to step into ambiguous, high-load environments and bring structure, clarity, and momentum to stalled or overloaded work
• Ownership mindset with a track record of driving initiatives to completion across competing priorities without direct authority
• Deep understanding of relational databases, APIs, integrations, and backend systems, with the ability to engage credibly with architects and engineers
• Experience working in cloud-based delivery environments, including Azure and CI/CD workflows, and collaborating closely with infrastructure teams
• Familiarity with Salesforce platforms and enterprise Ecommerce or Martech ecosystems
• Highly collaborative working style with strong communication skills across technical and non-technical stakeholders, including comfort with in-person collaboration

• Work directly with senior technical leadership to translate business needs and architectural intent into clear delivery plans, sequencing, and execution paths focused on outcomes and business value
• Bring structure to an overloaded environment by maturing backlogs, clarifying priorities, identifying dependencies, and aligning work to measurable business ROI
• Provide technical leadership and credibility grounded in prior engineering experience, enabling productive conversations around relational databases, APIs, integrations, and cloud systems without serving as the primary day-to-day engineer
• Step in tactically when needed to unblock delivery through design validation, technical guidance, or targeted execution support
• Foster strong collaboration, visibility, and trust across teams by communicating clearly, welcoming feedback, and working alongside peers
