You’ll build highly collaborative relationships with Engineering leaders, Engineers, Cloud Operations, and Security stakeholders to ensure the environment and tooling strategy meets the evolving needs of the business.
Define and execute a company-wide strategy for non-production environments and core engineering tools, including CI/CD build systems and AI productivity tooling.
Recruit, Lead and mentor a global team of engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence and continuous improvement through personal development plans.
Identify and eliminate bottlenecks in the developer experience by recommending and tailoring tooling solutions that balance developer autonomy with organizational standards.
Drive the adoption of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and automated provisioning to reduce manual overhead and ensure environment parity between development, staging, and production.
Collaborate with Security teams to embed "Shift Left" practices and ensure data privacy compliance within all core tooling and environment configurations.
Monitor external trends in Platform Engineering and Developer Experience (DevEx) to keep the engineering stack modern and competitive.
Proven leadership experience managing engineering teams focused on infrastructure, DevOps, non-production environments, or platform engineering.
Demonstrable track record of managing complex, multi-cloud or hybrid environments at scale.
Expertise in developing engineering toolchains and providing authoritative guidance on automated build and integration processes.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with a demonstrated ability to influence senior stakeholders and technical peers.
A self-motivated drive for results with the ability to prioritize a complex backlog and work methodically in a fast-paced, time-sensitive environment.
Commitment to quality management, including measuring and monitoring the stability and performance of foundational engineering systems.
If you’re excited to lead the foundational systems that empower engineers and modernize how software is delivered, we’d love to hear from you.
