About the Role

We are seeking a Director of Engineering to drive the maturity of our Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) processes and lead engineering managers in delivering high-impact projects. This role is ideal for a strategic, process-driven leader who can align technology execution with business strategy while fostering cross-department collaboration. You will oversee engineering teams (10-20 people) and work closely with Product, QA, DevOps, and Data Engineering to optimize workflows and enhance delivery.

• Drive Engineering Process Maturity – Oversee and improve SDLC processes, ensuring efficiency in development, review, and deployment.
• Lead & Develop Engineering Managers – Ensure sprint execution, facilitate career growth, and support structured performance reviews.
• Cross-Department Collaboration – Partner with Product, QA, and DevOps to streamline engineering workflows and align technical strategy with business objectives.
• Optimize Delivery – Identify and implement optimal paths for technical and functional success in engineering projects.
• Minimal Coding Involvement – While coding may be required in rare instances, this role is primarily strategic and process-oriented.

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in software engineering, with 5+ years in leadership roles managing engineering managers.
• Strong experience maturing and optimizing SDLC processes in a fast-paced environment.
• Proven ability to align engineering execution with business strategy and effectively communicate across departments.
• Experience managing 10-20 person teams, ensuring efficient sprint execution and team development.
• Technical background with familiarity in FE/BE development, DevOps, Snowflake, Power BI, and Data Engineering.
• Self-starter mentality – proactive, able to navigate challenges independently, and drive solutions forward.
