Team And Job Overview
The Digital & Technology Solutions (DTS) group under the leadership of the Chief Information Officer was established in 2023 with the mission of empowering our customers and colleagues to take on the world, by seamlessly delivering secure and reliable digital experiences. Digital & Technology Solutions has set out to achieve the following objectives for EDC:

• Define, execute, and sustain the integrated technology target state, target data model and technology operations required to enable EDC's 2030 business transformation.
• Establish and manage the rolling 3 Year Digital Roadmap that sequences the technology outcomes required to achieve the technology target state and facilitate its execution across all domains in the organization.
• Keep pace with industry trends and emerging technologies, ensuring EDC has access to the digital technology tools it needs to stay relevant in the market and grow Canadian global trade.
• Lead and ensure integrated digital, data, infrastructure, and cybersecurity implementations to create excellent customer, user, and employee experiences.

As EDC aims to be the leader in helping all Canadian exporters go, grow, and succeed internationally, the Digital Platform Delivery & Architecture (DPDA) group in EDC plays a critical role in enabling leaders to leverage technologies by providing an easy-to-use, secure and fit-for-purpose digital business platform.

To better position ourselves for success, the Digital Delivery Working Capital Solutions (WCS) & Financing & Investments (F&I) group is seeking a Software Delivery Manager to implement the strategic technology vision by building an effective platform that supports the needs of EDC now and in the future.

The Software Delivery Manager will be responsible for the hands-on design, development, support, and operations of the WCS/F&I group. A key focus of this role is to oversee the end-to-end delivery lifecycle, proactively managing risks, blockers, dependencies, and scope. Success in this position requires fostering strong alignment between business, product, and engineering teams.

The ideal candidate will leverage their experience to guide solutions and provide technical leadership. This is not a hands-off leadership role. We are looking for a Software Delivery Manager who's just as comfortable jumping into full-stack code as they are guiding a team to build amazing products.

• Drive delivery across multiple projects: helping the team prioritize, unblock, and meet timelines.
• Maintain quality by embedding unit testing, automation, and performance monitoring into the product workflow.
• Champion scalable, maintainable, and secure development practices.

AI Driven Development

• Support Engineering teams building or integrating AI-powered features, APIs, or infrastructure.
• Balance AI innovation with responsible engineering practices including model explainability, Reliability, and cost management.

Team Leadership & People Management

• Lead, coach, and grow a team of engineers ensuring they feel heard, supported, and challenged.
• Manage a team of engineers, providing regular feedback, career growth opportunities, and performance reviews that matter.
• Support career development with structured plans, regular 1:1s, and transparent conversations.

Strategy, Collaboration & Stakeholder Management

• Work closely with Product, Design, and Business teams to align on goals, scope, and timelines.
• Balance stakeholder expectations with team capacity and communicate trade-offs with clarity.
• Define and measure success through OKRs, delivery metrics, retrospectives, and continuous improvement.
• Contribute to longer-term strategic planning and tech vision.
• Build and manage the engineering delivery budget (headcount, cloud/tooling, consultants and vendor contracts).

What We Are Looking For

• Post-secondary degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
• Minimum of 10 years' hands-on experience in software development and technical architecture, ideally across full stack (front-end/back-end/API/cloud).
• Minimum of 2 years' experience in a Delivery Manager role or similar, overseeing technical staff or project teams.
• Demonstrated ability to lead and inspire diverse, cross-functional teams; including junior and senior staff, by fostering an inclusive, collaborative, and high-performance culture aligned with EDC's values.
• Advanced knowledge in Web services, microservices, and API development.
• Advanced knowledge in Integration services, including JSON, REST, and SOAP protocols.
• Advanced knowledge in Identity platforms (IdP) and standards like SAML, OpenID Connect, and OAuth.
• Proven experience with enterprise technology deployment using GitHub, Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines.
• Managed an engineering delivery budget end-end (headcount, tooling) for a product team.
• Excellent leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities and work effectively in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Bilingual in both official languages (English and French).

What Will Make You Stand Out

• Hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure and its relevant build, deployment, automation, integration, DevOps, networking, and security technologies in cloud and hybrid environments.
• Demonstrated experience in managing integration, design patterns and practices, including API virtualization, resilient event driven architecture and asynchronous processing.
• Hands-on experience with Security scanning tools.
• Experience with related frameworks and technologies like AngularJS.
• Design skills, e.g., working with Figma or similar design tools.

• Eligibility:

• Eligibility: EDC is committed to Fair Employment Practices and preference will be given to a candidate who is able to work legally in Canada at the time of application (Canadian Citizens or Permanent Residents).

The position is open to those who meet all of the essential requirements stated above and whose applications are received by the closing date.
