Senior Manager, Platform Engineering and Delivery

Lead Organization and Roadmap: Lead multiple delivery capability domains and the engineers and technical leads responsible for them. Own the annual and multi-year roadmap for platform investments, establish priorities and success measures, and align capacity, staffing, vendor, and tooling decisions with Platform Engineering leadership and senior stakeholders.

Drive Strategy and Execution for Core Delivery Capabilities: Direct the strategy, tooling, and execution across CI/CD, artifact management, production containers, code quality, and security scanning, with a focus on specific outcomes: Accelerating Delivery: Improve development speed, release reliability, and consistency across teams through CI/CD tooling and shared components. Standardizing Artifacts and Containers: Ensure software packages, build outputs, and containerized workloads are reliable, traceable, secure, and standardized for easy consumption and delivery. Improving Quality and Security Posture: Drive capabilities for code quality and security scanning to enhance maintainability, engineering effectiveness, and enable secure-by-default delivery practices by shifting security earlier in the development lifecycle.
