Description

The Engineering Lead will lead and mentor a software-engineering team while remaining close to architecture, design, delivery and production problem-solving. The role combines people leadership with hands-on technical judgement: setting direction, making trade-offs, translating business needs into executable plans and creating the conditions for engineers to do their best work.

Profile for success

  • Demonstrated experience leading and mentoring software-engineering teams.
  • Proven delivery of complex software, digital-platform or customer-facing technology initiatives.
  • Recent hands-on understanding of backend and frontend engineering, APIs and distributed systems.
  • Strong practical knowledge of architecture, design patterns, scalability, reliability, security and performance.
  • Experience shaping or executing technical roadmaps with Product and business stakeholders.
  • Experience with AWS and/or Azure or a comparable cloud environment.
  • Evidence of improving engineering workflows, delivery capability, quality or platform performance.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to explain technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders.
  • A player-coach approach, with the credibility to engage in code, design and difficult technical problems.
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science or a related field.

Technical environment

The environment includes C#, .NET and .NET Core, JavaScript, Angular, React, Python, Go, SQL, Oracle, MSSQL, MySQL, Entity Framework, Hibernate, AWS, Azure and Kafka.
