The opportunity

As a Technology Service Delivery Manager, you’ll be based in our Service Delivery Center, which is made up of high-performing US-based colleagues who work closely with our experienced advisory professionals. We deliver Technology project-based work and managed services to our clients. Here, you’ll work as part of a project team and will be responsible for the design, build/configuration, testing, analysis, delivery and support of Technology solutions. This position is fast-paced and ever-changing, which means you’ll need to be a flexible self-starter and be able to manage changing priorities and learning new and rapidly changing technology solutions.

We are looking for Backend Engineers who will design and develop server-side services, APIs, and data integrations for our financial services clients. The team leverages Java, Spring and Spring Boot, RESTful and SOAP web services, microservices architectures, relational and NoSQL databases, messaging platforms such as Kafka, and cloud technologies to build secure, scalable, and high-performing back-end systems. This role provides architecture, governance, and technical leadership across complex, enterprise-scale initiatives.

Your Key Responsibilities

The goal is to help clients solve complex business problems by delivering robust enterprise solutions. You will own end-to-end architecture and technology roadmaps, establish standards and delivery governance, lead cross-team decisions and modernization, and provide technical leadership that influences senior stakeholders and mentors other technical leaders.

Your leadership and management responsibilities

As a Service Delivery Manager, you’ll be accountable for how the work gets done as much as what gets built. You’ll set the technical direction for your teams, build the capability of the people around you, and give our clients and senior stakeholders the confidence that delivery is in safe hands.

• Own end-to-end application architecture and technology roadmaps across complex, enterprise-scale initiatives, and hold the teams accountable for delivering against them.
• Establish secure engineering patterns, reusable frameworks, and delivery governance, and make sure they are consistently adopted across engagements.
• Lead cross-team decisions, modernization efforts, dependencies, and technical risk, escalating and resolving issues before they affect client delivery.
• Influence senior client and internal stakeholders, communicating technical direction and trade-offs in terms the business understands.
• Mentor and develop technical leaders and engineers, providing coaching, feedback, and career guidance that helps our people grow.
• Define reusable standards and drive organizational capability improvement, so that each engagement leaves the practice stronger than it found it.
• Apply and champion code quality, security, testing, and automation standards across the teams you lead, and translate requirements into secure, well-integrated services.

Skills and attributes for success

• Deep hands-on experience developing enterprise server-side applications, APIs, and integrations using Java, Spring, and Spring Boot.
• Deep experience designing microservices architectures, RESTful and SOAP web services, and event-driven integration using Kafka.
• Strong experience with relational and NoSQL databases, JPA or Hibernate, and query performance tuning at scale.
• Strong foundation in data structures, algorithms, and software design principles.
• Apply established code quality, security, testing, and automation standards, and contribute practical improvements.
• Willingness and ability to travel up to 30% of the time.

To qualify for the role you must have:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field.
• Minimum of 6 years of relevant experience in enterprise application development, architecture, and technical leadership.
• Deep experience developing server-side applications and RESTful APIs using Java, Spring, and Spring Boot.
• Expertise in microservices architectures, API design, and event-driven integration with Kafka.
• Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases, JPA or Hibernate, and performance tuning.
• Strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and software design.
• Experience with JSON, XML, REST, SOAP, and web services.
• Experience with Jenkins, Git, CI/CD, and testing frameworks such as JUnit and Mockito.
• Experience with cloud development, containerization, and production triage.
• Proven experience owning application architecture, establishing engineering governance, and mentoring technical leaders.
• Comfortable working in Agile environments and collaborating with senior business and technical stakeholders.

Ideally, you’ll also have:

• Experience with the following technologies
• Java, Spring, Spring Boot, and microservices architectures
• RESTful and SOAP web services and API design
• JSON and XML data formats
• SQL and NoSQL databases, and data access frameworks such as JPA or Hibernate
• Messaging and event streaming platforms such as Kafka, JMS, or RabbitMQ
• Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms such as AWS or Azure
• Jenkins, Git, and CI/CD pipelines
• JUnit, Mockito, and automated testing frameworks
• Cloud development, production triage, and enterprise application delivery
