Primary Responsibilities:
* Partner with product, business, and technology leaders to understand business strategy, vision, and priorities
* Lead multiple engineering teams, driving accountability for delivery, quality, and system ownership
* Ensure teams are working on the highest-priority initiatives aligned to business outcomes
* Serve as the technical owner and decision maker for platforms, portals, and systems within your scope
* Partner with Product Owners, Architects, and teams to address vulnerabilities, incidents, and remediation efforts
* Implement and mature Agile and Dev Ops practices, including automation and continuous improvement
* Actively participate in product-area events (Daily Scrum, Refinement, Sprint Reviews, Retrospectives)
* Use data and metrics to improve predictability, quality, and operational performance
* Identify skill gaps within teams and align upskilling efforts to organizational priorities
* Conduct regular 1:1s and quarterly check-ins, reinforcing accountability, growth, and performance expectations
* Provide a high-quality onboarding experience covering team norms, systems, tools, and delivery practices
* Ensure adherence to and continuous improvement of SDLC standards and policies
* Partner with Scrum Masters and the Delivery Manager to drive team performance, ensuring continuous progress toward high-performing teams. This includes supporting both full-time and contracted resources and collaborating with Resource Partner (Vendor) Management on performance management as needed
* Stay current with modern technologies and enterprise systems; actively share knowledge with peers
* Mentor leaders and engineers in building solid business partnerships and leading through change
