The Senior Engineering Manager will lead end‑to‑end product engineering across complex, multi‑team programs. They will partner with product, business, architecture, infrastructure, and security teams to ship fast, learn fast, and scale what works. They will own the technical vision, product architecture, and execution from concept through release and iteration while improving delivery velocity and speed to market.

• Define a product‑level technical vision aligned with customer outcomes and client goals.
• Establish lightweight architectural guardrails (interfaces, patterns, conventions) to enable rapid iteration with quality.
• Use business, user, and operational signals to prioritize for accelerated time to value.
• Design and integrate AI capabilities with clear interfaces, guardrails, and observability to deliver safe, reliable, measurable value.
• Convert strategy into technical roadmaps and sequence work by impact, effort, risk, and learning value.
• Manage the complete product delivery lifecycle: conceptualization, development, launch, and iterative enhancement.
• Write product code and tests across the stack (Java/Python, React/Angular, SQL/No
  
  SQL).
• Govern multiple product codebases and maintain code quality, engineering throughput, and release predictability.
• Use AI tools for code generation, test authoring, defect triage, and documentation to accelerate development.
• Establish modular, domain‑driven system boundaries for rapid iteration and safe refactoring.
• Design stable, versioned REST APIs and ensure backward compatibility via contract testing.
• Model data with relational/No
  
  SQL schemas, ensure referential integrity and validation, and plan indexing/migrations.

• Standardize containers and orchestration with repeatable deployment paths.
• Implement data and streaming infrastructure (SQL/No
  
  SQL, caching tiers, Kafka/Pub/Sub).
• Run high‑velocity CI/CD using trunk‑based development, automated tests, and progressive delivery.
• Set standards for clarity, reliability, performance, security, and observability.
• Embed modern SDLC practices (Dev Sec Ops , trunk‑based development, feature flags, AI coding tools).
• Serve as a technical authority and mentor; lead design reviews and improve documentation.
• Provide concise, data‑driven updates on status, risks, trade‑offs, and decisions.
• Build confidence through transparent communication and fast, measurable outcomes.
• Iterate using telemetry, experiments, and customer feedback.
• Institutionalize learning, best practices, and continuous improvement.

• BA/BS in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 10+ years of software development experience.
• 8+ years of full‑stack development (Java/Python, Angular/React, SQL/No
  
  SQL, AWS).
• 5+ years delivering, testing, and launching production software.
• 3+ years leading product architecture and technical design.
• 1+ year building AI‑enabled product features or improving delivery using AI.

• Advanced Degree
