Senior Engineer, Technology Lead

We’re hiring a Senior Engineer, Technology Lead – a senior role with broad scope: technology roadmap, software and systems architecture, AI strategy and governance, vendor and partner management, security and compliance, and operational technology oversight. The Senior Engineer, Technology Lead works directly with the executive leadership team as a peer on technology decisions and serves as the most senior technology voice in the company.

• Develop and own a multi-year technology strategy and roadmap aligned with company growth and operational needs
• Lead architectural decisions across internal systems, including evaluating code quality, system design, and integration approaches
• Establish development standards, code review processes, and deployment readiness criteria for AI-assisted work across the company – including standards for staging, testing, rollback, and production release
• Serve as the independent technical validator on vendor and internal work – with authority and responsibility to elevate or block production releases when quality, security, or operational risk warrants it
• Build and prototype where it adds value – small tools, integration, automatons, and proofs of concept that demonstrate what’s possible and unblock decisions
• Own AI strategy and governance end-to-end, including tool selection, policy maintenance, evaluation of new AI capabilities, and responsible adoption across the organization
• Evaluate and manage technology vendors and partners, including contract review, SOW negotiation, ongoing performance accountability, and serving as a technical counterweight to vendor recommendations when needed
• Oversee the relationship with the managed service provider on day-to-day IT operations while owning the strategic technology layer above it
• Translate technical complexity into clear business decisions for non-technical stakeholders

• 5-8 years of progressive experience that includes hands‑on software engineering and a clear move toward technical leadership, architecture, or strategy
• Demonstrated ability to build software – not just review it – even if production coding is no longer your day‑to‑day
• Hands‑on experience using modern AI tools in a real work context (Claude Code, Cursor, Git Hub, or similar), with a clear point of view on responsible AI adoption
• Working familiarity with modern web stacks (React, Next.js, Node, Phyton, Postgres, cloud‑services) and the Microsoft ecosystem (Power Platform, Dataverse, Azure, SharePoint), with the ability to evaluate code produced with them
• Sound judgment on architecture, security, scalability, and operational resilience – able to spot fragility, technical debt, and risk in systems built by others (including AI‑assisted output)
• Comfortable balancing established proven technology with newer AI‑driven approaches – and knowing when each is appropriate
• Demonstrated experience evaluating, managing, or working closely with technology vendors and contractors
• Experience establishing or operating within technical review, deployment, or release processes
• Vendor management and contract negotiation skills, with the confidence to challenge vendor recommendations when the technical judgement calls for it
• Excellent communication, with the ability to translate between technical and business audiences
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field or equivalent professional experience
• Authorization to work in the U.S.

• Background in mid‑marketing or operational complex companies, where technology supports the business rather than being the business itself
• 401k (Employer Matching)
• 120 Hours of Paid Time Off
• 40 Hours of Paid Sick Leave
• Paid Holidays and more
