• Manage multiple stakeholders, complex projects, and large cross-product collaborations
• Sets and scales multi-department strategy for agentic AI-enabled engineering and SDLC/TLM automation (using enterprise-authorized tools within the work environment) to drive firmwide objectives (speed, scalability, reliability, and cost-to-serve), including portfolio-level standards for AI-orchestrated delivery workflows, release governance, automated test modernization, resilience engineering, and incident response acceleration; establishes guardrails for validation, security, resiliency, traceability, and reuse.
• Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain, including enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and automation capabilities, to drive cross-domain reuse and measurable capacity unlock outcomes across departments.
• Drive the development and delivery of high throughput, low latency production systems for fraud prevention
• Oversee cross-functional engineering teams, including application, data, and SRE disciplines
• Guide the adoption of DevOps practices, CI/CD, and infrastructure as code across teams
• Ensure operational stability, observability, and reliability of distributed, cloud-native architectures

Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills

• Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 10+ years applied experience, including 5+ years leading technologists to manage, anticipate, and solve complex technical items within your domain of expertise
