Job Responsibilities and Requirements

The incumbent exercises substantial discretion and independent judgment on matters of significance, performs sustained computer-based technical work, and partners with management on planning, delivery, and technical risk. This role is not administrative or governance-only; it remains among the deepest technical experts in the discipline while extending into broader authority and influence.

  • Shapes technical approaches for modernization and long-term sustainability, and establishes practices that improve reliability, maintainability, supportability, and operational resilience
  • Advances the adoption of AI-assisted engineering and AI-enabled delivery practices and helps establish responsible-AI standards for the team
  • Mentors engineers, influences roadmaps and technical priorities, and evaluates alternatives to make recommendations to leadership on matters of significance
  • Partners with management to inform planning, milestones, and delivery, and provides early visibility into technical risks, tradeoffs, and mitigation options
  • Serves as a trusted technical advisor, applies deep knowledge of the business and its products to align solutions with strategic objectives, and engages in high-priority production and incident escalations as needed
  • Other duties as assigned.
