The listing
Overview: The Service Delivery Manager is a senior operations position providing leadership for rotational team and collaborate with duty managers supporting 100+ clients on a rotating shift pattern, responsible for the efficient and professional execution of activities associated with providing an exceptional level of hospitality for clients' mission-critical systems. The Service Delivery Manager also serves as the accountable owner of Change Management governance for the entire business unit under the Altera Cloud Operations Change Management Process (v2.1) — chairing the Technical Review Board (TRB), overseeing implementation and validation, and holding final closure authority across all towers and shifts.
Change Implementation, Validation & Closure- Facilitate TRB meeting for change reviews across cloud BU.
- Staff and lead the Hosting Response Bridge (HRB), providing 24x7 monitoring across the post-change stability window; trigger swarms the moment an anomaly is detected.
- Enforce alert-suppression discipline and confirm pre-change baseline capture and post-change comparison before closure.
- Oversee validation against Validation Test Library pass/fail criteria and evidence — including mandatory application and technical validation for production changes.
- Hold final closure authority: confirm the 24-hour or TRB approved closure window with HRB observation if the change was clean and evidence is complete before authorizing closure; refuse closure otherwise.
- Invoke rollback directly against a pre-agreed trigger without further approval; escalate exceptions to the Tower Leader.
- Carry open items into shift handover with clear owners so closure is never missed across a shift boundary.
- Major incident / critical issue early detection and fast remediation for all matters during their shift.
- Ensure all client requests, incidents, and problems are addressed in a timely and professional manner.
- Run stand-up calls with their team, managing proper hand-over of activities and client status between shifts and teams.
- Allocate resources as necessary across teams to provide efficient, effective resolution of issues.
- Identify and implement operational process improvements across teams.
- Assist Shift Site Reliability Engineers with client communication and escalations.
- Drive results through agreed KPIs for alerts, monitoring tools, and case/ServiceNow (SNOW) metrics.
- Chair the Technical Review Board: the final gate reviewing risk classification, architectural impact, rollback adequacy, and monitoring plan for every change; approve, send back for rework, or escalate.
- Pre-agree and record rollback triggers at TRB, each with a maximum time-to-decide.
- Own and continuously improve the end-to-end process, intake template, and Validation Test Library across all towers.
- Track and report TRB gate-hold and rework rates monthly; a near-zero rework rate signals the board is a formality, not a control.
- Provide detailed and accurate job performance feedback for each resource working under their guidance.
- Supervise employee attendance and participation.
- Inspire and motivate employees on their rotating shift.
