Delivery Manager (Bengaluru)

About the Company Aivar Innovations is an AI-native services and software company and an AWS Preferred Partner, backed by Bessemer Venture Partners and Sorin Investments. We operate three accelerator platforms — Convogent (voice and agent AI automation), Velogent (governed agentic process automation for regulated industries), and Kubogent (Kubernetes-native AIOps) — serving enterprises across fintech, healthcare, retail, and the public sector. In our first year we have scaled to a 150-person team serving 100+ enterprise customers, Our founders and leaders come from AWS. About the Role We are hiring Delivery Managers to own end-to-end execution of customer engagements across our customer delivery. You will be the bridge between customers, stakeholders, internal architects and engineers, and our founders — running multiple parallel AI and cloud projects at startup velocity, where shipping happens in weeks, not quarters. This is not a project-administration role. Our Delivery Managers own commercial outcomes, validate technical architecture, push back on estimation, and build the playbooks and governance frameworks that will scale Aivar from 150 to 500. You will work alongside ex-AWS leaders, directly with founders, and with customers who expect production-grade AI — not demos. Responsibilities
- Pre-sales to delivery handover — review the SOW the moment it lands, identify gaps and assumptions, run the internal kickoff before the external one, and align the delivery team on what was sold versus what is deliverable.
- Portfolio governance — manage multiple parallel customer engagements across pods of 4–5 engineers each, with a transparent RAG framework, weekly customer status, and a leadership-grade dashboard you can defend in any review.
- Estimation and commercial accountability — independently validate effort estimates against historical benchmarks, defend timelines to customers with data, and own profitability on your portfolio, not just delivery.
- Technical validation — Apply on Kit Job: kitjob.in/job/4n8jab
