The Role:
You will provide strategic technical direction, manage multiple teams, and ensure their technology platforms are resilient, scalable and secure. You'll be a strategic partner to the product head, providing end-to-end technical leadership, building high-performing teams, and driving product and platform architecture. This is an opportunity to shape a critical technology environment, influence modern engineering practices at scale, and lead teams through a meaningful cloud and platform transformation journey.
What youll do:
- Provide end-to-end technical leadership across product/platform delivery, system health, engineering standards, support and maintenance.
- Build and lead high-performing software teams, create the conditions for predictable delivery and drive continuous improvement.
- Set the standards for how code is deployed across pipelines, ensure system reliability and drive modern engineering and platform practices
- Work closely with architects to shape solutions and define how those solutions need to be implemented while architecture remains a specialist discipline, you will need the technical depth to challenge, guide and shape implementation decisions
- Oversee IT governance across the teams
- Drive technology modernisation across the team
- Through cloud computing, AWS, event-driven architecture, automation and platform engineering practices.
- Build and maintain strong stakeholder relationships across the business
Technical skills:
Their technology modernisation requires a thorough understanding of cloud computing, AWS, event-driven architecture, automation and platform engineering practices.
Specifically, you'll need:
- Strong cloud computing knowledge AWS is our enterprise platform, so AWS experience makes the biggest difference)
- A solid grasp of event-based architecture, the patterns used, how distributed systems work and observability
- An understanding of architecture and technical strategy enough to shape solutions and engage with architects at a senior level
Leadership and management:
- Proven ability to lead, develop and grow multidisciplinary engineering teams
- Strong delivery management you set the pace and remove the blockers
- Experience driving reskilling and team transformation
- Confident stakeholder management, with the ability to engage across technical and business audiences
Experience:
- You'll need at least 8 years of software engineering experience, with 35 of those in an engineering leadership or technical management role.
- You should have experience leading multidisciplinary teams, delivering cloud-native solutions (preferably AWS), working with event-driven architecture and managing stakeholders.â
- Demonstrated experience with event-driven and distributed architectures in high-volume or highly integrated environments.
- Experience improving engineering maturity through DevOps, CI/CD, automated testing, Infrastructure as Code and platform practices.
Qualifications:
- Minimum: Degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Software Engineering, Information Technology or a related Engineering discipline.
- Certifications: AWS Cloud Practitioner or equivalent cloud foundation certification.
- AWS Solutions Architect strongly preferred.
- Preferred Honours degree or relevant postgraduate qualifications
- FinOps, DevOps, Security, TOGAF, SAFe and Kubernetes certifications advantageous.
