About Us

Air-tek is a Canadian-based software company with a powerful suite of products that has already achieved significant traction in a large global market. Our customers are global airlines operating in complex, high-stakes environments where delivery quality, product quality, and customer trust matter deeply.

As a Senior Delivery Lead – Deploy, you will lead complex, customer-facing enterprise SaaS implementations for top-tier airline customers. You will own delivery outcomes across the full implementation lifecycle, from kickoff through go-live, stabilization, and transition to BAU.

Success in this role requires maturity, judgment, executive presence, and strong critical-path management in a fast-paced environment.
