The Head of Engineering will lead the end-to-end engineering function responsible for building, integrating, and scaling a modern technology ecosystem. The role balances strategic leadership, technical oversight, and innovation to deliver robust, secure, and intelligent digital platforms that enable business growth. The right candidate has a proven record of leading people through change, using data and metrics to build trust, demonstrate progress, and drive accountability.

This leader will elevate engineering capability, advance Agile maturity, and embed AI and intelligent tooling where they create the most business impact. They measure their success by the outcomes the business achieves, not the technology it runs on.

Build, develop, and scale a high-performing engineering organization spanning application development, data engineering, AI and ML, and Dev Ops, creating clear growth paths and cultivating a culture of accountability, psychological safety, and continuous improvement.

Lead the engineering organization through sustained transformation using a metrics-driven approach that makes progress visible, earns trust across the business, and builds a shared culture of accountability and honest stakeholder communication.

Advance the organization toward genuine adaptability by coaching teams on Agile principles, aligning planning and prioritization with Product Management around outcomes, and creating space for rapid experimentation that turns learning into compounding business value.

Ensure the company's technology platforms, integrations, and vendor relationships are stable, well-governed, and aligned with business priorities, while defining and executing a pragmatic AI roadmap that embeds intelligent capabilities where they create the greatest measurable impact.
