About this role
What You'll Be Doing
Lead four domain managers and an approximately 80-person global engineering organization, establishing clear accountability, decision rights, and effective ways of working across regions and time zones. Own engineering quality, the technical roadmap, and non-functional standards across Adobe AEM, SAP Commerce, Oracle, data services, APIs, and integrations. Create a unified engineering operating model that enables teams to make sound decisions quickly and deliver with quality, predictability, and velocity. Drive engineering excellence through code quality, automated testing, CI/CD, secure development, performance engineering, and disciplined technical-debt reduction. Partner with Architecture, Systems Engineering, Agile Delivery Operations, Software Quality Assurance, and Support & Observability to manage dependencies and end-to-end outcomes. Ensure engineering teams own the operational quality of what they build, including availability, performance, resilience, and corrective actions following production issues. Establish engineering and delivery measures that identify constraints and drive measurable improvements in throughput, quality, and platform health. Coordinate with Infrastructure, Networking, and Information Security on environments, platform services, security, and compliance requirements. Own engineering vendor relationships, improve partner performance, rationalize the vendor landscape, and strengthen critical internal capability and knowledge. Drive practical adoption of AI across the software development lifecycle to improve engineering velocity, quality, documentation, and innovation. Communicate technical trade-offs, risks, priorities, and investment needs clearly to technology and business leaders.

Experience owning engineering quality, technical roadmaps, non-functional requirements, and production outcomes for customer-facing platforms. A record of leading meaningful organizational or operating-model change while maintaining delivery continuity. Experience working in agile delivery environments with product owners, delivery leaders, architects, and quality engineering teams. Working knowledge of cloud services, microservices, API-led integration, CI/CD, automated testing, secure software development, and observability. Experience managing external partners, vendor performance, workforce capacity, and technical delivery risk. Understanding of security and data-protection practices, including PCI considerations for payment processing. Strong executive communication, judgment, and the ability to translate technical trade-offs into business impact.
