• Partner with architecture, UX, and product leaders to ensure platforms align with business outcomes and user needs.

• Enable data‑driven and insightful decision making through effective use of analytics and AI.

• Deliver scalable, maintainable solutions that improve developer productivity and platform adoption.

• Ensure experience platforms meet high standards for quality, resilience, security, and usability.

• Lead complex technical initiatives and resolve architectural trade‑offs with clarity and sound judgment.

• Serve as a senior technical leader who advances modern engineering practices and a culture of continuous improvement.

The Expertise You Bring

• Experience designing and delivering enterprise‑scale platforms supporting multiple products and teams.

• Deep expertise shaping modern frontend platform architectures, with an emphasis on Angular‑based ecosystems.

• Ownership of design systems and shared UI component libraries, including long‑term evolution, governance, and adoption at scale.

• Proven ability to deliver consistent, high‑quality user experiences across web and container‑based desktop environments.

• Experience defining and evolving desktop interoperability platforms (Openfin, Inerop), including FDC3‑aligned standards and cross‑application workflows.

• Track record crafting data-intensive applications, enabling high-performance grids, data-driven analysis, and interactive visualization at scale.

• Leadership incorporating AI‑augmented capabilities into user experiences, enhancing workflows through contextual intelligence and assisted decision‑making.

• Experience defining AI‑augmented experience patterns that are explainable, performant, and appropriate for regulated enterprise environments.

• Strong understanding of end‑to‑end platform architecture, spanning UI frameworks, integration layers, and backend services.

• Demonstrated ability to influence engineering standards, architectural direction, and best practices across organizations through expertise and collaboration.

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

The Skills You Require

• Strong hands‑on experience with Angular, Type Script, HTML, and CSS.

• Experience building and maintaining shared frontend frameworks and reusable UI component libraries used across multiple teams.

• Practical use of state management and reactive programming patterns, including NgRx and RxJS, within large‑scale Angular applications.

• Strong hands‑on experience designing and implementing desktop interoperability, including context sharing, intent‑based actions, and cross‑application workflows.

• Experience working with interoperability standards and platforms such as FDC3 within container‑based desktop environments; FCFP Certification is a plus.
