We are looking for the right people — people who want to innovate, achieve, grow and lead. We attract and retain the best talent by investing in our employees and empowering them to develop themselves and their careers. Experience the challenges, rewards and opportunity of working for one of the world’s largest providers of products and services to the global energy industry.

Landmark, a Halliburton company, builds the software and data platforms that help the global energy industry make better decisions. Our products span subsurface interpretation, well construction planning, reservoir simulation, production optimization, and data management. These are tools used daily by engineers and scientists at the world’s largest energy companies. We are hiring Senior Software Engineering Managers across multiple product domains to match the scale and ambition of our engineering organization.

As a Senior Software Engineering Manager at Landmark, you will lead a major engineering function within one of several product domains: subsurface (geophysics and geoscience software), drilling software, reservoir modeling, production optimization, or data platforms. The specific domain will depend on your background and on organizational need, but the engineering challenges are shared across all of them.

Landmark’s product portfolio carries decades of accumulated science and engineering value. Much of the current work involves refactoring large, mature codebases at scale: decoupling the science, the business logic, the data layers, and the UI so that each can evolve independently. Several products are moving to new platforms entirely. You will lead teams through these transitions while continuing to deliver value to customers who depend on the software today.

The balance between modernization and continued delivery, between architectural discipline and the pressure to ship, is the defining challenge of the role.

You will manage Engineering Managers or senior individual contributors, and you will develop them with the same intentionality you expect them to bring to their own teams. This is not a role where you manage from a distance. You earn trust by walking into the technical details when it matters, whether that means reviewing an architectural proposal, working through the tradeoffs in a migration sequence, or helping a team resolve a difficult dependency.

You pair that technical depth with the organizational skill to run a disciplined engineering operation: clear standards, consistent practices, and teams that understand not just what they are building but why.

• Lead multiple engineering teams or a large team of 10–20 engineers, with accountability for delivery, quality, and operational health across your scope
• Manage Engineering Managers or senior individual contributors by coaching them on leadership, delivery, and the growth of their own teams
• Sequence and oversee major architectural changes, including legacy decomposition, layer decoupling, and platform migrations, against ongoing delivery commitments so that modernization does not come at the cost of customer value
• Maintain engineering discipline across your scope: sprint health, quality standards, incident response, technical debt management, and consistent practices that teams can rely on
• Dive into technical issues when the situation requires it, review architecture proposals, pressure-test migration plans, and work alongside Staff and Principal Engineers to ensure that management direction and technical direction reinforce each other
• Communicate the intent behind priorities and decisions so that your teams understand the “why,” not just the “what,” and can make…
