1. Delivery, Maintenance & Continuous Improvement

• Predictable Execution: Own release planning, track software progress, detect deviations early, and proactively drive risk mitigation plans.
• Flow & Metrics: Provide the right frameworks to smooth out delivery, track velocity and quality metrics, and clear technical or organizational roadblocks.
• Hand-over & Support: Ensure seamless hand-over and clear communication with Integration and Support teams for every delivered version, helping them provide fluid and reactive post-release support.
• Operational Reporting: Participate in regular synchronization meetings with your R&D Manager and peer Delivery Managers for cross-team tracking and operational alignment.

2. Component Ownership & Backlog Management

• Planning & Backlog: Collect, challenge, and refine needs from internal stakeholders (Program, System, Operations). Prioritize and prepare the component backlog and release planning (sprints/increments) based on agreed solutions.
• Cross-Team Alignment: Collaborate closely with Tech Leads, Architects, IVV Managers, and other Delivery Managers to define technical proposals and align cross-component dependencies.

3. Team Management & Leadership

• People Leadership: Directly manage your component team (Engineers, Tech Leads), fostering a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
• Talent Growth: Support individual growth through regular 1-on-1s, annual performance reviews, tailored objective-setting, and annual training plans aligned with both personal development and EasyMile’s roadmap.
• Hiring & Org Design: Define team structure, roles, and responsibilities, while actively driving the engineering hiring plan from sourcing to onboarding.
• Strategic Alignment: Champion EasyMile’s vision and values, balancing system performance, scalability, safety, and security with resource constrain.
