What you'll do

  • Own the platform roadmap - the shared SDKs, client foundations, and developer tooling the team ships - and sequence it against the migration and adoption goals of the three brands
  • Drive adoption of the shared foundations by partnering with product teams, running onboarding and rollout support, and making the supported path the easiest path
  • Lead, coach, and grow experienced mobile and web engineers, keeping growth conversations, calibration, and feedback loops running
  • Keep the team's operating model healthy: clear intake (stakeholder management, shared-platform, product-specific, or exception work), supported capabilities with entry criteria and support expectations, and predictable delivery
  • Guide architectural and system design decisions for client foundations that three brands and multiple app platforms depend on
  • Stay hands-on by contributing code and reviews alongside the team, and champion AI-native development practices
  • Grow the team through hiring

What we're looking for

  • 3+ years of experience managing engineers, including a team with senior engineers
  • Solid background (5+ years) in mobile or web engineering, with enough technical depth to hold your own in architecture discussions about client foundations
  • Use AI tooling fluently in day-to-day work and stay close to the code
  • Have run a platform, SDK, or shared service that other teams depend on, and know how to treat internal customers as customers
  • Work across boundaries naturally: product teams, design, other platform organisations, data/analytics and stakeholders in other locations and time zones
  • Hold a high bar for engineering quality and can navigate production incidents and release tradeoffs with calm structure
