Job description

We don't need a Director of Engineering who knows everything about Change Management; we need one curious enough to find out what they don't. With $172,000 - $268,000 on the table, this director role rewards 12 years of Python with autonomy and team-driven growth.

Key Responsibilities

• Document the Attention to Detail system so the next director engineer onboards in days, not weeks
• Backfill Change Management test coverage on the riskiest corners of Intel's codebase
• Monitor system health and set up alerting for delightfully-weird production environments
• Tune Change Management queries until the NV database stops timing out under load
• Build internal tooling that improves developer productivity and velocity

What You'll Bring

• The discipline to document while it's fresh, not after it's forgotten
• The kind of ownership that treats the company's money like your own
• Willingness to commute to Sparks, NV or work flexibly as needed
• A growth mindset and openness to constructive feedback
• Comfort with the hybrid cadence of a Sparks-based operation

Intel spent 11 years in the trenches of technology so its clients across Sparks, NV wouldn't have to. The unfussy pace here is real, but so is the permission to log off and recover.

You join at $172,000 - $268,000, grow with a mentor, lean on benefits, and flex your hours so Sparks fits work instead of the reverse.

Marked current today, the hybrid opportunity at Intel is accepting candidates.
