• Partner with product owners, project/program leaders, and principal engineers to align priorities, scope, and technical approach.
• Lead, coach, and develop software engineering teams and people managers to deliver against product and platform goals.
• Champion engineering best practices (code reviews, CI/CD, test‑driven development, secure coding) and drive continuous improvement.
• Ensure adherence to enterprise architecture, quality, and compliance standards through reviews and governance.
• Provide technical leadership and escalation support for complex design decisions, production issues, and critical defects.
• Manage resourcing and capacity planning, including offshore/third‑party partnerships and staffing models (managed services, staff augmentation).
