Position: Delivery Lead
Experience: 10+ Years
Work Location: Fully Remote
About Us
MCS is a bootstrapped, fully remote IT services company of 60+ people, serving clients globally across 30+ countries. We build custom software solutions β web and mobile applications, AI solutions, and digital products for businesses across retail, fintech, education, healthcare, travel, and more.
As we scale our delivery function, we're looking for a Delivery Lead who ensures our projects are delivered on time, our BAs are working with precision, and our clients always know where things stand.
About The Role:
This is a full-time remote role for a Delivery Lead with 10+ years of experience. You'll act as the supervisory layer between our BA team, engineering team, and clients β ensuring that requirements are accurately captured, Jira tickets are well-defined and actionable, and delivery stays on track across engagements.
Work Shift:
2PM β 10PM IST. Our dev team typically wraps by 8:30 PM β the 10 PM window covers occasional client requests, not late nights as a norm. We're open to discussing shift timings based on the candidate's sensibility and accountability on projects.
What You'll Do:
-
Review Jira tickets created by the engineering team and BAs β ensuring they are accurate, well-defined, and actionable before development begins
-
Supervise and hand-hold the BA team β ensuring business requirements are properly captured and broken into small, executable tasks in Jira
-
Attend client calls to monitor project progress, understand client expectations, and flag any gaps between what was promised and what is being delivered
-
Identify and resolve blockers early β keeping BAs unblocked and delivery timelines intact
-
Ensure quality gates are respected at every stage β nothing ships to a client without the right checks in place
-
Maintain visibility on all active projects β leadership should be able to ask you the status of any engagement at any time and get a clear, accurate answer
-
Support BAs in translating complex client requirements into clear, well-scoped tasks
-
Flag risks, scope creep, and delivery concerns to leadership before they become problems
What You Bring:
-
Min. 10 years of experience in delivery management, project management, or a senior BA role in IT services or custom software
-
Deep familiarity with Jira β you can review a ticket and immediately tell if it's well-written or not, and you know how to fix it
-
Experience in supervising or mentoring BAs or junior PMs β you've guided others in requirement gathering and task breakdown before
-
Strong attention to detail β you catch gaps in requirements before they cause mid-sprint confusion
-
Self-directed in a fully remote environment β you manage your own workload without needing to be chased
Good to have:
-
Experience in writing or reviewing JQL (Jira Query Language) for custom filters and reports
-
Exposure to AI or digital transformation projects
-
PMP, PRINCE2, or Scrum Master certification
What Success Looks Like In This Role:
-
Jira tickets are never vague β every task that goes into development is clear, scoped, and actionable because you reviewed it first
-
No client ever wonders what's happening on their project β because you've already sent an update or flagged a concern
-
Delivery timelines are respected β not because everything always goes perfectly, but because blockers are caught and communicated early
-
Leadership can ask you the status of any active project at any moment and get a precise, confident answer
-
Over time, the BA team needs less hand-holding β because your coaching has built their capability
What We Offer:
-
A team that genuinely cares β about the work, about clients, and about each other
-
22 paid leaves. Alternate Saturdays and Sundays off
-
Fully remote β work from anywhere in India, provided you can collaborate during shift hours and meet our data security standards
Hiring Process:
-
Round 1: Delivery management fundamentals, scenario-based questions, cultural alignment
-
Round 2: Deeper role discussion, cultural fitment, and logistics alignment
Feedback within 5β7 working days at every stage.
