## About the Role

* BS, MS, or PhD or equivalent experience in Computer Science or a related field is required. Candidates must have over 12+ years of hands-on software engineering experience. At least 5 of those years should be in a senior technical leadership role.
 * Proven experience leading large-scale, multi-year, full-stack platform projects from inception to production.
 * Expertise in Python or a modern backend stack, with production-grade experience in PostgreSQL and complex relational data modeling.
 * Strong frontend architecture skills with React, Angular, and TypeScript, passionate about data-heavy UIs.
 * Demonstrated success in crafting and implementing state machines, workflow engines, or lifecycle systems.
 * Solid background in CI/CD orchestration, event-triggered integrations, and background-job systems.
 * Strong API development field, with experience in REST contracts, versioning, and automation-friendly interfaces.
 * Proficiency in Linux, containerization, and managing stateful production services.
 * Ability to lead through influence, driving architectural decisions across multiple teams and building consensus.
 * Excellent communication skills, translating complex business requirements into detailed technical solutions.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

 * Experience architecting large-scale release engineering or configuration management platforms.
 * Background in event-driven architectures, microservices, or workflow orchestration engines.
 * Familiarity with regulated environments, ensuring audit trails and customer-facing sanitized exports.
 * Knowledge of hardware/firmware release flows and board/SKU management.
 * Expertise in integrating AI-assisted authoring, structured data extraction, or natural-language interfaces into engineering tools.

## Description

* Managing the architecture of a full-stack release management platform, advancing it to accommodate multi-tenant, multi-environment systems across multiple hardware platforms.
 * Crafting hierarchical domain models and state machines that manage complex lifecycles and multi-axis promotion flows.
 * Architecting robust ingestion and reconciliation pipelines, ensuring data fidelity and compliance across various representations.
 * Defining and integrating a comprehensive validation, promotion, and gating model with our automated sanity stages and customer-release pipelines.
 * Establishing a strict separation between authoring and production environments, ensuring data integrity and sanitization.
 * Setting standards for API build, authentication, RBAC, audit logging, and observability across the platform.
 * Leading frontend architecture for a sophisticated authoring and review experience, handling complex tabular editing and bulk operations.
 * Driving platform onboarding workflows, defining consistent naming schemes, validation rules, and notification topologies for new hardware platforms.
 * Mentoring engineers, conducting architecture reviews, and raising the technical bar across multiple engineering domains.
 * Partnering with product, TPM, release managers, and other collaborators to align on roadmaps, capacity, and operational ownership.
 * Defining and managing deployment, rollout, and incident-response models, including database migration strategies and clear on-call runbooks and continuously evaluating and incorporating emerging tools, frameworks, and patterns to improve the platform's capabilities.
