The Role

Your Impact

• Provide technical leadership for complex or cross-team capabilities across the MSC product suite, from problem definition through delivery and support.
• Partner with Product Management, Product Owners, Agile Team Leads, and System Architecture to evaluate feasibility, shape solution options, and define incremental delivery plans.
• Lead architecture and design decisions within the scope of assigned initiatives, aligning implementation with product strategy and system architecture.
• Develop and review critical software components, prototypes, interfaces, and technical designs, while supporting maintenance and modernization of existing codebases.
• Drive engineering excellence in code quality, automated testing, CI/CD, observability, performance, reliability, scalability, and secure design.
• Identify and manage cross-team technical dependencies, risks, trade-offs, and nonfunctional requirements in support of PI objectives.
• Participate in SAFe events and provide technical leadership during PI Planning, backlog refinement, system demos, and Inspect and Adapt.
• Mentor senior engineers and feature leads, establish reusable patterns, and promote knowledge transfer across product areas to reduce technical silos.
