The posting

As an SL India Delivery Center (IDC) Delivery Director, you can wear many hats. Depending on the engagement context, you could be playing the role of a strategic consulting advisor to senior executive leaders, co-solutioning high-risk programs alongside regional leaders, or driving end-to-end execution for complex, distributed software delivery portfolios across global regions.

As a core management leader within SPARK’s S&D India organization, you will provide strategic and tactical leadership across India-distributed SL PDU engagements. By establishing trusted advisor status through high-impact stakeholder interactions and fostering high-performing delivery teams, you will continuously ensure flawless execution and deliver undeniable value to our clients, directly contributing to the growth and scale of the expanding SL GDC footprint.

Job responsibilities

  • You will oversee end-to-end delivery execution for all Service Line (SL) engagements operating out of the India Delivery Center (IDC) across global SL regions.
  • You will partner closely with regional SL Leaders to co-solution and drive execution for all India-distributed SL PDU engagements.
  • You will champion modern delivery methodologies, including the AI Software Delivery Lifecycle (AI-DLC) and agentic workflows, embedded deeply into the end-to-end program lifecycle.
  • You will navigate complex, high-velocity, and high-risk commercial delivery structures, such as fixed-fee, outcome-based, and gain-share models.
  • You will align closely with Go-To-Market (GTM) and sales organizations to ensure proposed solutions, team compositions, and commercial models mitigate execution risks prior to delivery.
  • You will act as a trusted executive-level advisor to internal and external stakeholders, providing strategic consulting, problem-solving, and alignment across matrixed organizational structures.
  • You will directly lead, mentor, and empower delivery leaders and senior technical talent, cultivating an inclusive, high-performance delivery culture within your portfolio.
  • You will maintain full end-to-end operational accountability for portfolio health, governance, execution quality, and risk management.

  • You have 20+ years of industry experience, with a proven track record of managing expansive portfolio deliveries spanning diverse geographies, industry verticals, and technology stacks.
  • You have deep expertise in managing high-risk programs structured under fixed-fee, outcome-based, or gain-share commercial models.
  • You have extensive experience in leading programs built around the AI Software Delivery Lifecycle (AI-DLC) and integrating agentic workflows across delivery pipelines.
  • You possess a strong technical background essential for full end-to-end program accountability, technical solutioning, and risk mitigation.
  • You have proven experience partnering with sales and GTM teams on pre-sales solutioning, staffing design, and risk alignment.

  • You demonstrate strong context-switching capabilities and empathy, using these skills to build solid working relationships and resolve issues thoughtfully.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
