Responsibilities
- Serve as the technical authority for your scrum team — making day-to-day engineering decisions, setting the bar for code quality, and ensuring the team delivers high-quality software on schedule
- Write, review, and contribute production-quality code across the full stack — C#/.NET, Angular, and Oracle — as an active, hands-on member of the team
- Lead sprint ceremonies as scrum master: planning, refinement, daily standups, demos, and retrospectives
- Set daily priorities for the team; actively unblock teammates by removing dependencies, clarifying requirements, and resolving technical ambiguity
- Hold the team accountable to engineering standards — unit testing, code review discipline, definition of done, and release readiness
- Champion ≥50% AI-authored PR targets and ≥95% AI code review adoption as organizational minimums for your team
- Model an agentic development mindset — integrating AI tooling into your own daily workflow and actively coaching teammates to do the same
- Push the team beyond baseline AI adoption into workflows and practices that measurably improve delivery velocity and code quality
- Stay current on agentic development tooling and bring forward-looking recommendations to the Sr Engineering Manager
- Directly manage four to five engineers — owning 1:1s, performance feedback, career development conversations, and day-to-day engagement
- Partner with the Sr Engineering Manager on hiring decisions, onboarding, and performance management for your team
- Identify and grow technical talent within your squad — coaching engineers on both technical skills and professional development
- Foster a collaborative, high-accountability team culture that takes quality seriously and supports each other's success
- Interface with client stakeholders at key points in the delivery lifecycle — requirements clarification, design reviews, demo feedback, and issue resolution
- Dig into root business problems rather than accepting requirements at face value; advocate for solutions that generalize across the CEM platform rather than one-off client-specific builds
- Partner with the Sr Engineering Manager and Product Management to ensure work is well-defined, properly scoped, and sequenced for delivery
- Coordinate with matrixed QA engineers to ensure test coverage, quality gates, and release readiness are met
- Collaborate with Principal Engineers, the Solution Architect, and peer Lead Engineers on cross-team technical decisions and standards
- Surface delivery risks, technical blockers, and scope concerns to the Sr Engineering Manager early and clearly

- Experience with CQRS patterns for command/query separation in multi-service architectures
- Demonstrated AI-first engineering mindset — hands-on experience with agentic development tooling (GitHub Copilot, Devin.AI, or similar) and a track record of driving AI adoption within an engineering team
- Proven ability to lead a scrum team as both technical authority and delivery owner — setting priorities, running ceremonies, and holding teammates accountable
- Experience with direct people management responsibilities — performance feedback, career development, and team engagement for a small team of engineers
