  • Delivery & Work Allocation: Drive impact across Application Development by monitoring end-to-end delivery and managing day-to-day operations, including resource planning and work allocation within the team/project.
  • Standards & Governance: Ensure essential procedures and governance policies are followed, contribute to defining engineering standards, and negotiate with external parties when necessary.
  • Innovation & Tooling: Actively explore and integrate modern AI-powered development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, advanced code analyzers) to accelerate delivery velocity, elevate code quality, and foster a culture of engineering innovation.

Recommended Qualifications

  • DevOps & CI/CD: Hands-on experience with DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and modern infrastructure tooling.
  • Architecture & Integration: Strong knowledge of system integration principles and practical experience implementing modern integration patterns (e.g., RESTful APIs, event-driven architecture, messaging queues).
  • Problem-Solving: Proven analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to execute effectively in fast-paced environments.
  • Leadership & Mentorship: Demonstrated ability to lead technical teams, conduct code reviews, and mentor engineers.
  • Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to articulate technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
