Senior Technical Delivery Lead

Senior Technical Delivery Lead 

The Senior Technical Delivery Lead drives delivery of complex technical solutions for Allegion's Order Management product teams. This player-coach role connects engineering execution, Agile delivery, and technical program management. The person in this role owns delivery from requirements through release, stays close enough to the technical work to guide and unblock the team, partners with product owners, engineering teams, and business stakeholders, and helps ensure solutions are delivered on time, within scope, and with strong quality. The role also serves as a servant leader for Agile teams by facilitating Scrum ceremonies, removing impediments, and driving continuous improvement across the delivery lifecycle. 

Qualified candidates must be legally authorized to be employed in the United States. The company does not intend to provide sponsorship for employment visa status (e.g., H-1B, TN, etc.) for this employment position.

Because hybrid arrangements can vary by team and business needs, your talent acquisition partner will share the specific expectations for this role. 

While this is the current structure and we currently have no plans to change, we reserve the right to make changes to the hybrid schedule as needed at the Company’s discretion.

• Bachelor’s degree required (Computer Science, Information Technology, or related discipline preferred)

• Self-motivated, independent, and proactive, with outstanding communication skills; able to effectively communicate complex ideas and make compelling arguments across business and technical audiences
