Beyond delivery, you will play a key role in strengthening engineering culture, growing technical capability, and fostering collaboration between engineering, product, and stakeholders to deliver impactful digital solutions.

Job Responsibilities

Engineering Leadership & Delivery

• Lead and guide multiple engineering teams responsible for building and operating large-scale digital products and platforms.
• Define engineering direction and ensure alignment between technical strategy and product outcomes.
• Drive effective delivery through modern engineering practices, strong technical leadership, and continuous improvement.

Architecture & Technical Direction

• Provide architectural oversight across services and platforms to ensure scalability, reliability, and maintainability.
• Review system designs and guide teams through complex technical decisions and trade-offs.
• Support system modernization and adoption of cloud-native technologies and scalable platform architectures.

Team Leadership & Capability Development

• Build and mentor high-performing engineering teams.
• Coach senior engineers and technical leads to strengthen technical leadership within teams.
• Foster an engineering culture focused on ownership, collaboration, and continuous learning.
