## Description

You'll own technical delivery for a full service or product area, partnering with product managers, architects, and fellow engineers to build software that performs well and delights the people who rely on it. You'll set your team's technical direction and help the engineers around you grow. This role fits someone who loves solving system-level problems, coaching others, and shipping high-quality work. You'll report to the Manager, Engineering/Development.

What You'll Do

 * Set technical direction for your team by choosing design patterns and frameworks, guiding its development course, and leading adoption of tools and practices that speed up delivery.
 * Own the technical roadmap for your product or service, clear delivery blockers, and weigh feasibility and ROI as you shape priorities with product partners.
 * Build clean, reusable, maintainable applications that run fast, respond well, and work across platforms.
 * Lead system architecture and design reviews, and give clear, actionable feedback in code reviews.
 * Write automated unit, integration, and acceptance tests that support our continuous integration pipelines, and push quality earlier in the development process.
 * Find the root cause of data and system issues, then design permanent fixes.
 * Mentor engineers across the full software development process, guide them as they build prototypes and validate ideas with data, and help shape user stories alongside your team.
