- Ensure solutions are scalable, secure, performant, maintainable, and aligned with modern engineering practices.

- Drive adoption of cloud-native design, API-first development, microservices, event-driven patterns, and modern .NET engineering practices where applicable.

Delivery Excellence & Operational Ownership :

- Own end-to-end delivery outcomes for assigned engineering teams, including planning, execution, dependency management, risk identification, and release readiness.

- Establish predictable delivery practices through strong sprint planning, capacity management, estimation discipline, and execution tracking.

- Ensure teams maintain high standards for delivery quality, production readiness, incident response, and continuous improvement.

- Partner with DevOps, Platform, and Architecture teams to improve CI/CD maturity, deployment reliability, observability, and operational stability.

- Drive engineering accountability for SLAs, performance, scalability, availability, and cost optimization.

Quality, Security & Engineering Practices :

- Champion engineering excellence across teams by promoting code quality, design reviews, automated testing, secure coding, and maintainable architecture.

- Drive proactive identification and remediation of technical debt, performance bottlenecks, security vulnerabilities, and reliability gaps.

- Support compliance with healthcare technology security, privacy, and regulatory expectations.

- Encourage responsible use of modern engineering productivity tools, including AI-assisted coding and automation, to improve developer efficiency and quality.

People Leadership & Talent Development :

- Manage and develop engineering leads, senior engineers, and high-performing engineering teams.

- Build a culture of ownership, accountability, technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous learning.

- Support hiring, onboarding, performance management, career development, succession planning, and leadership development for engineering talent.

- Coach managers and technical leaders to improve execution rigor, stakeholder communication, engineering judgment, and team effectiveness.

- Identify capability gaps and create development plans to strengthen team maturity and delivery confidence.

Stakeholder Collaboration & Strategic Support :

- Partner closely with Product, Architecture, Data, AI/ML, Security, DevOps, and business stakeholders to align priorities and execution plans.

- Support Engineering Leaders in translating strategic priorities into actionable execution plans for teams.

- Communicate progress, risks, dependencies, trade-offs, and delivery status clearly to senior engineering and business leadership.

- Act as a bridge between strategy and execution, ensuring teams understand business context, technical priorities, and expected outcomes.

- Contribute to engineering governance, operating rhythms, planning reviews, and cross-team alignment forums.

Skills Required :

- 13/14+ years of experience in software engineering, product engineering, or platform engineering.

- 6+ years of experience leading engineering teams, preferably across multiple teams, pods, or product areas.

- Strong technical background in modern software engineering using technologies such as REST APIs, microservices, distributed systems, and cloud platforms.

- Hands-on understanding of Azure or similar cloud platforms, including application hosting, storage, databases, observability, and cloud operations.

- Deep understanding of SDLC, Agile delivery, DevOps, CI/CD, automated testing, release management, and production support.

- Strong architectural mindset with the ability to review designs, challenge assumptions, identify risks, and influence cross-team technical decisions.

- Experience driving engineering quality, performance optimization, reliability improvements, cost optimization, and operational excellence.

- Strong people leadership skills with demonstrated ability to coach managers, develop talent, and build high-performing teams.

- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence across engineering, product, architecture, and business teams.
