Lead and develop a team of software engineers responsible for building and operating services that power IAA Operations.
Own delivery for Ops product roadmaps while improving reliability, operability, and time-to-market.
Lead modernization of legacy .NET applications to cloud-native architectures (e.g., .NET Core/.NET, containerized services) in Azure.
Drive data modernization and performance improvements, including PostgreSQL schema design, migrations, and operational best practices.
Partner with Product to define crisp problem statements, acceptance criteria, and measurable outcomes; ensure engineering work aligns to value.
Translate operational and product needs into prioritized engineering work with clear success metrics (outcomes, SLIs/SLOs, and cost targets).
Drive DevOps excellence across the software delivery lifecycle: CI/CD, automated testing, infrastructure as code, secure-by-default deployments, and progressive delivery (e.g., canary/blue-green).
Own operational excellence outcomes: availability, latency, throughput, reliability, cost efficiency, and reduction of toil through automation.
Implement strong observability standards (metrics, logs, traces) and improve telemetry-driven decision making; champion OpenTelemetry-based instrumentation.
Set clear team goals, operating cadence, and key metrics; communicate progress, risks, and tradeoffs to stakeholders and leadership.
Coach engineers and managers (as applicable) in modern engineering practices, systems thinking, and pragmatic delivery; build a culture of learning and psychological safety.
Improve security and compliance posture through DevSecOps practices: least privilege, secrets management, automated scanning, policy-as-code, and auditability.
Manage cross-team dependencies and coordinate delivery for initiatives spanning multiple systems and partners.
