• Enable cross‑team alignment and stakeholder engagement (20%) – Partner with Product Owners to translate business needs into technical plans; manage dependencies across teams; communicate progress, risks, tradeoffs; contribute to roadmap planning and prioritization.

• Required: 6–8+ years of software engineering experience, with 2+ years managing engineering teams; strong hands‑on development with Type Script/JavaScript and modern frontend frameworks (React); experience building and operating cloud‑native applications on AWS; proven ability to contribute to system design and architecture while actively coding; strong understanding of distributed systems, APIs, event‑driven architectures; experience implementing modern engineering practices; demonstrated ability to lead teams through complex, cross‑functional delivery initiatives;
