Engineering Delivery Lead
At Bloq.it, we’ve created the world’s leading smart locker solution. Solving online deliveries by enabling everyone to participate easily, reducing delivery costs and making them more sustainable.
We’re quickly expanding, and after growing at 1000% for three years in a row, we’re now the fastest-growing Smart Locker company in the world and one of the fastest growing scale-ups in Europe.
We are in search of a Engineering Delivery Lead to join our innovative team as our new #bloqstar. This person will sit at the intersection of engineering and operations, driving the delivery of technical programs that span our software, IoT, and hardware teams. You'll ensure our engineering output translates into reliable, deployed products - not just shipped code, but working lockers in the field.
What you’ll be doing:
Lead the delivery of complex technical programs that cut across software engineering, IoT, hardware, and platform teams;
Work directly with engineering leads and product managers to define delivery plans, manage dependencies, and hold teams accountable to commitments;
Own the technical delivery cadence - sprint planning, cross-team syncs, release coordination, and post-mortems;
Act as the primary escalation point for delivery risks, blockers, and cross-team conflicts - bringing structure to ambiguity;
Drive release management and deployment coordination across software and firmware updates, ensuring smooth rollouts to thousands of devices in the field;
Build visibility into engineering throughput, velocity, and delivery health through clear metrics and dashboards;
Partner with operations and field services to close the loop between what engineering ships and what actually works in production;
Champion process improvements that help engineering teams move faster without sacrificing quality or reliability.
What you’ll bring to the table:
5+ years of experience in technical program management, engineering delivery, or a similar role embedded within engineering organizations;
Strong technical fluency - you don't need to write code, but you need to understand systems architecture, APIs, deployment pipelines, and firmware/software interactions well enough to ask the right questions;
Proven track record of delivering complex, multi-team technical programs on time and with quality;
Deep experience with Agile methodologies in practice (not just theory) and an ability to adapt process to context;
Excellent stakeholder management - you can hold senior engineers accountable while maintaining trust and respect;
Experience managing delivery across distributed teams and multiple time zones.
It would be great if you would also have:
Experience in IoT, embedded systems, or companies where software meets hardware;
Background in logistics technology, smart infrastructure, or industrial tech;
Experience with release management for products deployed on physical devices at scale;
Familiarity with monitoring, telemetry, and field-failure feedback loops;
Experience building delivery processes from scratch in a scaling organization;
Understanding of manufacturing timelines and how they interact with software release cycles.
Why join us?
A dynamic and fast-paced work environment with a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous learning;
Competitive salary and flexible benefits package, tailored to your experience and skills;
Eligibility for performance-based bonus, tied to your results and designed to reward your impact;
Work how you work best - we offer a remote-friendly policy and flexible hours so you can stay productive and keep life balanced;
Portuguese Health Insurance including mental health;
Flexible Sports and Wellness membership covering multiple gyms and studios;
Unlimited days off (subject to manager approval).

About Bloq.it
At Bloq.it, we provide end-to-end solutions for Smart Lockers, and our software ecosystem, Bloq.it OS, is the leading tech solution available in the market.
We've had the pleasure of working with some of the biggest names in e-commerce, logistics, and retail in Europe, such as Vinted and DHL.
We have recently become the fastest-growing Smart Locker company in the world. Before Bloq.it the industry had stagnated and lacked innovation and good products. We strive to have the same impact in this industry as Tesla has had on the car industry.
We believe that Smart Lockers are a big part of the future for everyone, and we want to play our part in making sure that Smart Lockers become as mainstream as the mobile phone.
