Manager, Technology Projects & Delivery - Indianapolis Motor Speedway
This role sits within Business Solutions, the software and applications arm of Penske Entertainment’s enterprise IT function. The team builds and owns the application, data, and technical solutions the company runs on, supporting everything from accounting, HR, and ticket sales to INDYCAR engineering and on-track data. Business Solutions is organized into a few groups that work closely together on shared problems: full-stack developers, data engineers, analysts, and digital content, compliance, and financial systems specialists. While this manager partners across the entire team, they own technology project delivery and act as the glue between Business Solutions and the rest of the company.
To give a sense of the scope this role helps plan and deliver: rebuilding IMS.com and INDYCAR.com; shipping multiple event mobile apps; building an in-house mobile solution for access control and walk-up sales; partnering with FOX Sports on world-class broadcast viewing experiences and with NTT on cutting-edge fan-experience and AI projects; and delivering live INDYCAR timing & scoring data to fans and teams across multiple channels. All of it has to ship on schedule, against real event deadlines that don't move.
The Manager, Technology Projects & Delivery leads the planning, coordination, and execution of technology projects across Penske Entertainment, with a focus on software development efforts, company websites, and cross-department initiatives. It builds strong relationships with stakeholders across nearly every business unit and translates their needs into clear scope and deliverables and keeps work moving through the development teams.
