Job Description

In this role, you will be a leader in the Engineering organization accountable for the delivery of a critical program. Working within and outside of Engineering, you will define a "North Star" for the program, working across multiple verticals to manage dependencies, advocate for the prioritization of this work, and track progress using data and key milestones. To be successful, you'll need to understand not only the design considerations of a technical solution but the larger business context. You will be a subject matter expert for this program, partnering with product, commercial, and engineering to ensure we balance customer experience (quality, depth of features, etc.) with speed of delivery. You'll work diligently to meet timelines, mitigate risks, and use data to drive your decisions. You'll work independently to design decisions, and bring in Sr. Engineers for final input. Technical design experience, program management and executive presentation skills are critical.
