It Development Manager Jobs in Seattle, WA (NOW HIRING)

Fluke is seeking an experienced IT Project Manager to lead complex, high-visibility technology initiatives across our Commercial IT portfolio. This role drives execution across CRM, digital experience, web platforms, eCommerce, customer portals, DAM, PIM, and channel enablement solutions that directly support business growth, customer engagement, operational efficiency, and digital transformation.

This is an execution-focused delivery leadership role, not a project coordinator position. The successful candidate will bring structure to ambiguity, align cross-functional stakeholders, remove roadblocks, manage risks and dependencies, and ensure teams consistently deliver against business commitments.

The ideal candidate is equally comfortable communicating with executive leadership, facilitating discussions with business stakeholders, and partnering directly with technical teams to drive delivery from concept through deployment.

You will partner with business leaders, product owners, architects, developers, QA teams, and external partners to bring strategic initiatives from concept to deployment while driving accountability, transparency, business value realization, and measurable outcomes.

Why This Role Matters

Commercial Technology plays a critical role in how Fluke engages customers, enables partners, and supports growth. This position helps drive the successful delivery of the platforms, integrations, and digital experiences that power customer engagement, revenue generation, digital commerce, and commercial operations worldwide.

The projects delivered through this role directly influence how customers interact with Fluke, how teams operate, and how the business continues to modernize and scale its technology capabilities globally.

• Drive project execution while proactively identifying and resolving obstacles that may impact delivery.
• Ensure projects are delivered on time, within scope, and aligned to business objectives.
• Hold teams accountable for achieving project objectives, commitments, deliverables, and measurable business outcomes.
• Establish clear ownership, accountability, and decision-making frameworks to keep initiatives moving forward.

Manage Financial and Delivery Performance

• Partner with leadership to balance competing priorities and optimize resource allocation across initiatives.
• Contribute to project governance processes, delivery standards, and portfolio management best practices.
• Support annual planning, budgeting, forecasting, capital planning, and project intake activities.
• Understand and manage dependencies across multiple initiatives and help optimize delivery across the broader Commercial IT portfolio.

Drive Adoption and Change Management

• Partner with business stakeholders to support organizational readiness, user adoption, training, and change management activities.
• Ensure business teams are prepared for solution deployment and ongoing adoption.
• Monitor adoption success and work with stakeholders to address barriers to adoption and value realization.
• Support transition planning to operational teams following implementation.

Manage Vendors and Delivery Partners

• Manage relationships with implementation partners, consulting organizations, and technology vendors to ensure successful delivery.
• Monitor partner performance, deliverables, timelines, budgets, and contractual commitments.
• Coordinate external resources and ensure alignment with Fluke delivery standards and business objectives.
