Software Engineering Leader

Summary

This is an opportunity to shape and scale a growing software engineering capability. The Software Engineering Leader will help define how the team builds solutions, develops talent, applies modern engineering practices, uses Microsoft and cloud technologies, integrates with client systems, and delivers meaningful outcomes for clients. The right person will bring technical credibility, leadership maturity, consulting judgment, and a practical vision for how software engineering, cloud platforms, low‑code tools, integrations, and AI‑enabled development can work together to solve real business problems.

• Lead and develop a software engineering team delivering custom applications, integrations, automation, Microsoft platform solutions, cloud‑based solutions, and AI‑enabled software.
• Provide technical leadership across a broad range of solution types, including full‑stack applications, APIs, Azure services, Power Platform, SharePoint, Dataverse, workflow automation, DBX integration work, data‑platform integrations, and client‑environment solutions.
• Establish and mature engineering standards for architecture, development, testing, documentation, deployment, security, supportability, and maintainability.
• Guide solution design decisions, including when to use custom code, Microsoft platform capabilities, cloud‑native services, automation tools, AI‑enabled capabilities, or a hybrid approach.
• Partner with client‑facing teams to scope opportunities, estimate work, assess technical feasibility, manage delivery risk, and support successful project execution.
• Create practical delivery patterns, reusable templates, accelerators, estimation models, and implementation standards that improve consistency, quality, and margin.
• Lead engineering practices related to code review, solution review, Dev Ops, CI/CD, release management, QA, production readiness, and operational support.
• Support work delivered in client environments, adapting to client technology stacks, security requirements, infrastructure constraints, data access patterns, deployment processes, and governance requirements.
• Mentor and coach engineers across different skill sets—including pro‑code developers, Microsoft platform engineers, automation specialists, cloud engineers, and emerging technical leads.
• Help define hiring needs, role expectations, career paths, skill development plans, and team structure as the software engineering capability grows.
• Promote the responsible use of AI‑enabled development tools for coding, testing, documentation, analysis, solution design, and delivery acceleration.
• Ensure AI‑assisted work is reviewed appropriately and aligns with expectations for quality, security, confidentiality, maintainability, and client value.
• Build a strong engineering culture that values technical excellence, practical problem solving, accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and client impact.
