Job Level

About the role

  • Deliver measurable business impact by shipping prioritized enterprise experience capabilities on schedule, with clear adoption and outcome metrics.
  • Provide a scalable, performant platform (services + onboarding) that enables teams to integrate quickly, with standardized patterns and reusable components.
  • Validate AI/agentic solutions through rapid POCs and production pilots, documenting learnings, risks, and recommended standards for enterprise reuse.
  • Modernize and migrate targeted platform components to the public cloud to improve elasticity, cost efficiency, and time-to-scale.
  • Define and socialize reference architectures, best practices, and implementation playbooks that raise consistency and delivery velocity across partner teams.
  • Improve operational health by increasing automation for common failure modes and reducing repeat incidents through durable engineering fixes.
  • Execute predictable delivery via agile planning and transparent reporting of scope, risks, dependencies, and platform scale/performance requirements.
  • Raise engineering quality by enforcing code standards, reviews, and performance best practices across the platform.
  • Deliver end-to-end observability by instrumenting telemetry, dashboards, and alerting from day one for all critical services.
  • Use telemetry and customer-of-IT (associate) signals to make data-driven design tradeoffs and demonstrate improvements over time.

Requirements

  • 3+ years leading and developing high-performing engineering teams, with evidence of delivery and measurable outcomes.
  • 7+ years building enterprise software in one or more languages (e.g., Java, C#, C/C++), with strong object-oriented design fundamentals.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical discipline (or equivalent experience).
  • Proven ability to design globally distributed systems (queuing/workflows, load balancing, caching, storage, and service-to-service communication) with reliability and scale in mind.
  • Working proficiency in data/query and automation tooling (e.g., T-SQL, JavaScript/TypeScript, PowerShell) to enable self-service, operational excellence, and repeatable delivery.
Benefits
  • Comprehensive Total Rewards program that offers personalized coverage tailor-made for you and your family’s overall well-being.
  • Financial benefits including market-competitive compensation; a 401K savings plan vested from day one that offers a 6% match; performance and recognition-based incentives; and tuition assistance.
  • Access to additional benefits like mental healthcare as well as fertility and adoption assistance.
  • Supports flexibility- We provide workplace flexibility as well as our GEICO Flex program, which offers the ability to work from anywhere in the US for up to four weeks per year.
