Backend Delivery Lead | Selangor | Permanent
If you thrive at the intersection of technology and delivery - and know what it takes to keep complex backend engineering teams moving forward - this is your next challenge. Our client is a forward-thinking digital platform organisation at the forefront of cloud-first technology and connectivity, and they're looking for a Backend Delivery Lead to help drive delivery at scale.
Why Apply?
This is more than a project management role. You'll be embedded at the heart of a high-impact digital platform team,
influencing delivery across cloud-native architecture and enterprise-scale backend services. If you're energised by fast-moving environments where your decisions genuinely shape outcomes, this is the opportunity to make your mark.
The Role
Driving predictable, high-quality delivery across backend systems, you'll be responsible for:
- Leading agile ceremonies and maintaining a healthy, consistent delivery cadence
- Managing backlog prioritisation and ensuring sprint readiness across back-end services
- Planning and executing phased release strategies, including Blue/Green and canary deployments
- Tracking delivery health via key performance metrics and reporting progress to senior stakeholders
- Coordinating across DevOps, QA, and solution design teams to enable seamless, secure releases
- Championing continuous improvement through retrospectives and post-incident reviews
What We're Looking For
A technically fluent PM who bridges engineering and business with confidence and clarity:
- 8+ years in software or digital product delivery, with at least 3 years in a TPM, delivery lead, or scrum master capacity
- Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines and cloud-native architecture (e.g. Kubernetes, EKS)
- Familiarity with API management, event-driven architecture, and observability tooling
- Comfortable working with tools such as Jira, Confluence, GitLab, and Jenkins
- Agile, PMP, or DevOps certifications (e.g. CSM, SAFe, PMI-ACP) are a distinct advantage
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills across both technical and business audiences
