So, you can do what you do best - with us.

THE TEAM

The mission of the Engineering Enablement Department - our platform organization - is to provide the composable building blocks, unified foundations, and operational guardrails that empower teams to assemble world-class engineering, data, and AI solutions at scale.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Aritzia is growing, and our Engineering Enablement team is growing with it. This is a unique opportunity to design, manage, and scale the community programs, communication frameworks, and operational insights that engineering teams across Aritzia rely on to thrive and adopt technology at scale - from internal documentation hubs and technical roadmaps to developer advocacy networks, hackathons, and sentiment metrics. You will champion our engineers as our valued customers, driving platform adoption through transparent storytelling, data-backed feedback loops, and structured engagement that remove friction from the developer journey, unlocking collaborative capacity across the entire technology organization.

• Manage project tracking boards and communicate the platform roadmap outward; channel bottom-up requirements from engineering teams to help leadership prioritize what gets built
• Establish clear communication loops and operating cadence for decentralized developer programs, ensuring cross-functional alignment
• Act as the Product Owner for our central documentation hub, making it the single trusted place engineers go to find technical guidance - whether it is authored in the hub or published from the codebase
• Facilitate Communities of Practice, Champions networks, and events (such as Office Hours and Hackathons) that break down silos and drive peer-led knowledge sharing
• Design and manage structured learning pathways, bootcamps, and certifications to drive continuous upskilling across technology teams
• Partner with technology vendors to coordinate training sessions, enablement workshops, and premier support engagements that help engineering teams get full value from our platform tools
• Track platform adoption across engineering teams and gather developer feedback on friction points to measure and refine our enablement frameworks

• Internal Platform Marketing: Creative storytelling and marketing instincts, applied to internal campaigns, release notes, and newsletters that generate excitement and drive voluntary platform adoption
• User Research & Insights: Proficient in setting up feedback loops, designing sentiment surveys, and compiling qualitative feedback into structured data insights
• A commitment to learn and apply Aritzia's Values and Business and People Leadership principles
