Own the Architecture & Technology projects end to end. Take projects from initiation through execution to closure — cloud platforms, platform automation, middleware and the IaaS/PaaS/SaaS services built on top — and be accountable for the result, not just the plan.
Lead technical delivery teams and go deep with them. Instruct and steer engineering teams from analysis and architecture through development to live service, deep-diving into the technology yourself and driving consensus where opinions differ.
Run sound project governance. Set up and manage financials, resources, scope, quality and timeline; identify risks and issues early, remove blockers for the team, and secure buy-in from senior stakeholders, peers and engineers.
Manage client and sales expectations. Be the credible voice towards clients and internal sales throughout the implementation — clear status, honest timelines, and a polished business and technical pitch up to C-suite and Board level.
Bridge business vision and technical reality. Translate our service and product ambitions into concrete technical implementation — and translate technical constraints back into commercial language senior stakeholders can decide on.

Show full description

Five or more years in project management for technical, cross-functional projects — plus a university degree in technology, business or a comparable field.
A proven track record delivering complex programmes end to end — spanning multiple engineering teams through the full software lifecycle (build, test, release on time), in an international, diverse and agile-driven environment.
Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure, Platform Engineering, automation, and IaaS, PaaS, SaaS and BPaaS concepts, with a proven track record of building and delivering scalable infrastructure platforms and services for real customers, not just consuming them.
Technical credibility with engineers. You can discuss implementation detail with developers, drive consensus among stakeholders who disagree, and pick up new technologies in the cloud/IT space quickly.
Effective communication in English, up to C-suite and Board level — a polished business and technical pitch, combined with a can-do attitude and the willingness to drive difficult conversations to a practical solution. Italian is considered a strong asset.
