Job Responsibilities



* Deliver the enterprise vision and multi-year roadmap for continuous integration and continuous delivery, release engineering, and environment automation, including operating model, standards, and measurable outcomes (speed, stability, quality, developer experience).


* Lead cross-portfolio platform engineering delivery by aligning teams to build scalable pipeline frameworks, reusable components, and automation services that standardize delivery patterns.


* Translate business and engineering needs into end-to-end architecture and engineering solutions, producing reference architectures and standards, documenting trade-offs, and driving alignment through architecture reviews and governance.


* Define and deliver environment lifecycle management across development, test, stage, and pre-production, enabling standardized, repeatable, self-service provisioning through infrastructure as code and configuration automation.


* Coach and lead engineering teams through execution by setting technical direction and success metrics, running design reviews, removing blockers, and ensuring delivery milestones are met.

* Establish and enforce release governance and engineering standards, including change controls, artifact management, versioning, dependency management, and approval workflows.


* Drive operational excellence for continuous integration and continuous delivery and environment platforms through reliability engineering, observability, incident readiness, continuous improvement, and clear platform performance reporting (lead time, deployment frequency, mean time to recovery, pipeline reliability, environment availability, adoption).


* Modernize pipelines with automated quality and security gates (testing, policy checks, scanning), progressive delivery patterns where appropriate, and automated rollback capabilities.


* Provide hands-on technical leadership in Java and Python where needed (critical components, integrations, prototypes), and optimize build and release performance (caching, parallelization, dependency resolution) while strengthening software sup...
