Technical Delivery Director
Pubblicato il 03-10-2026 - Deltatre in Lucca
Technical Delivery Director - Vesper Build and Run Italy Position This role is offered on an Italian employment contract. Candidates must be based in Italy as we are unable to support remote working from outside the country due to local employment and tax legislation.
This role sits within Deltatre's Engineering & Technology function, reporting to the SVP of Engineering Delivery, at the interface between external and internal clients and the multi-disciplinary teams building and running the OTT streaming and connected consumer experiences for major international sports and entertainment brands.
As Technical Delivery Director, you hold delivery accountability for a portfolio of programmes - directing delivery leadership while staying personally credible in the architecture conversation, and personally present when a client escalation matters. You own end-to-end delivery against customer needs, while ensuring engineering squads' contribution to the core product meets Deltatre's standards for quality. This is a delivery-focused leadership role, not a hands-on coding one:
you'll be judged on delivery outcomes and squad health, coordinating the team rather than writing the code yourself. Alongside other technical principals, you lead architectural decisions within the agreed architecture, drive requirements gathering and estimation, and combine your engineering background with the leadership and mentoring that scale a team's standards over time.
You'll take initial ownership of 6 delivery squads (around 40-45 engineers), with the 6 squad leads reporting directly to you. This is an expansion-oriented role: as the team and business grow, the remit may extend further, though nothing beyond the current scope is confirmed at this stage.
