• Lead, coach, and develop a team of software engineers responsible for designing, building, testing, deploying, and operating highly available application and platform services.
• Establish clear objectives, priorities, and execution plans across multiple technical workstreams.
• Partner with architects, senior engineers, product leaders, and engineering managers to define platform strategy, technical roadmaps, and delivery milestones.
• Provide technical leadership across distributed systems, cloud-native services, data ingestion, service-based architectures, APIs, and full-stack application development.
• Guide architectural decisions, design reviews, code reviews, troubleshooting, and technical risk assessments.
• Ensure the team delivers scalable, secure, observable, and maintainable software that meets established engineering and operational standards.
• Lead teams through debugging and resolution of complex issues involving APIs, service-to-service integrations, distributed components, data pipelines, and production environments.
• Drive operational excellence through automation, monitoring, observability, incident response, root-cause analysis, and continuous improvement.
• Promote the responsible use of AI-assisted and agentic development practices, including tools and methodologies such as coding agents, specification-driven development, and automated engineering workflows.
• Collaborate with internal stakeholders to understand platform use cases, translate requirements into technical solutions, and prioritize work based on business and customer impact.
• Represent the team in technical reviews, roadmap discussions, and executive-level forums.
• Partner effectively across organizational boundaries and influence technical direction without relying solely on formal authority.
• Recruit, retain, and develop strong engineering talent while creating an inclusive, accountable, and high-performing team culture.

Required Qualifications

• Significant software engineering experience, including experience developing production application software, platforms, or distributed systems.
• Previous experience directly managing software engineers, including responsibility for performance management, coaching, career development, and delivery.
• Strong technical foundation developed through prior hands-on software engineering experience.
• Experience designing, developing, or leading teams responsible for distributed systems and cloud-based services.
• Experience with cloud-native architecture, microservices, APIs, service-to-service integrations, and scalable application platforms.
• Experience leading full-stack or application development teams.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple priorities, technical dependencies, and delivery commitments in a complex organization.
• Strong understanding of software development lifecycle practices, including design, coding, testing, deployment, monitoring, and production support.
