Job Description
Overview
ABM is one of the largest providers of integrated facility, engineering and infrastructure solutions in North America, with annualized revenue of approximately $8.75 billion and more than 100,000 team members. The company delivers janitorial, engineering, parking and mobility, electrical and mechanical, energy and specialty services through five reportable segments: Business & Industry, Manufacturing & Distribution, Education, Aviation, and Technical Solutions.
ABM has reached the point where these digital products need to be run as products: with a coherent platform underneath them, a real engineering organization around them, and a single leader accountable for both.
The Vice President, Product Engineering owns the engineering organization, technology platform and delivery accountability for ABM’s digital product portfolio — both the B2B portals used by ABM’s enterprise clients and the direct-to-consumer (B2C) portals and applications used by the public. The role owns architecture across ABM’s dual public cloud footprint on Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services, the engineering practices that govern how software is built and released, and the leadership bench required to scale the organization.
