• Provide technical leadership and oversight across mobile, backend, and data engineering efforts.
• Partner closely with Business Analysts to translate customer requirements into executable technical scope and delivery plans.
• Proactively identify and resolve delivery risks, cross‑team dependencies, and technical blockers.
• Serve as the primary escalation point for delivery and execution issues.
• Ensure study builds follow internal SDLC standards, SOPs, and applicable regulatory requirements.
• Communicate clearly and regularly on delivery status, risks, and progress to leadership and stakeholders.
• Coach and mentor engineers and delivery leads, fostering accountability and continuous improvement.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.

• Strong technical foundation across modern software systems (mobile, backend services, APIs, data pipelines).
• Proven experience delivering complex, custom software projects with fixed timelines and customer commitments.
• Demonstrated ability to manage engineering resources and conflicting priorities.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
