Real Chemistry is looking for a Technical Delivery Manager to join our growing team!
At ROOM42 (we are 21GRAMS' in-house production company), we are seeking a Senior Technical Delivery Manager to coordinate the delivery of digital products and technical solutions across development teams. This role is ideal for an emerging leader with a solid technical foundation, project management experience, and strong client service skills. The successful candidate will manage day-to-day technical delivery, coordinate between creative and development teams, and ensure projects are delivered on time, on budget, and to specification while growing their leadership capabilities in a fast-paced agency environment.
This is a hybrid role, based in any of our US offices-including New York City, Boston, Chicago, Carmel, Lambertville, or San Francisco-or remotely within the US, depending on team and business needs.
What you'll do:
Project Delivery

• Manage technical delivery for digital projects including websites, web applications, mobile apps, landing pages, email campaigns, interactive modules, banners, motion graphics, and UI/UX design deliverables.
• Coordinate production workflows from requirements gathering through development, QA, and deployment, ensuring smooth handoffs between creative, UX, development, and QA teams.
• Manage timelines for assigned projects (typically 10-20 concurrent projects), tracking progress, identifying blockers, and ensuring deliverables meet deadlines and quality standards.
• Translate creative briefs and design concepts into actionable technical tasks, resource needs, and realistic timelines in collaboration with development leads.
• Maintain project documentation including technical requirements, development specifications, test plans, and deployment procedures.

Client & Stakeholder Communication

• Participate in client meetings to discuss project status, timelines, and technical requirements. Provide regular status updates and proactive communication on progress, risks, and resolutions.

• Track and report on project progress, risks, and key metrics using project management tools (Jira, Workfront, Asana). Provide regular status reports to senior delivery managers and stakeholders.

Team Collaboration & Agile Practices

• Work closely with developers, QA engineers, designers, UX architects, and vendors to drive effective execution and foster collaborative team dynamics.
• Facilitate daily standups, sprint planning meetings, and team syncs. Remove impediments and maintain project momentum.
• Coordinate with offshore and nearshore development teams, managing time zone differences and ensuring clear communication and documentation.
• Follow and help maintain agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) to manage project workflows, adapting processes to fit project needs and client expectations.

Quality Assurance & Technical Standards

• Oversee QA testing processes to ensure deliverables are error-free, meet technical specifications, and comply with accessibility standards (ADA/WCAG) where required.
• Manage asset coordination including copy, design files, technical specifications, client approvals, and legal/regulatory reviews throughout the production lifecycle.
• Provide hands-on support for technical tasks when needed, including reviewing, testing functionality, troubleshooting issues, or coordinating technical deployments.

Resource & Vendor Management

• Coordinate with third-party developers, platform providers (Cloudflare, AWS, Pantheon, Veeva), and technical vendors to support project delivery and integration.
• Assist in resource planning and allocation across projects, working with senior delivery managers to optimize team capacity and productivity.
• Track project financials, resource allocation, and time against budgets. Flag scope changes and support creation of change orders when needed.

AI & Emerging Technology

• Understanding of AI design and QA tools and their role in modern digital workflows.
• Familiarity with AI-powered project management and automation tools.
• Eagerness to learn and adopt emerging AI technologies that improve project delivery and team efficiency.

Working with Real HART: Since the pandemic, we have adapted to how our people told us they want to work. We have office locations in cities in the US, UK, and Europe with many employees and clients that serve as hubs where and when they need us. For employees who are within an hour of one of our offices, we expect attendance in the office two days per week, either at a Real Chemistry office or onsite with clients. We are also actively opening new office locations, so if one opens near you, our Real HART policy will apply. We are not looking for attendance for the sake of attendance but believe that the opportunity to coordinate in-office team meetings, 1:1 meetings with managers, taking advantage of on-site learning, and connecting with client partners is a critical to delivering on our purpose of making healthcare what it should be. Outside of these offices, we have regions, where people work remotely but come together quarterly for collaboration, culture and learning opportunities. We call this our Real Hybrid and Regional Teams (Real HART) approach. Real Chemistry believes we are best together - and our workplace strategy fosters connection and collaboration in person - but also supports flexibility for our people.
