  • Define and manage engineering workflows, including ownership models, review practices, and validation processes.
  • Develop instrumentation and reporting systems to track engineering health and failure trends.
  • Identify and implement AI-assisted and agentic workflows to accelerate development cycles.
  • Solve high-impact developer experience problems through tooling changes or process improvements.
  • Manage the evolution of existing delivery systems and infrastructure for multiple specialized teams.

What we're looking for

  • At least 8 years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Experience with Xcode and iOS Development.
  • Experience building internal or customer-facing tools that solve real problems.
  • Experience with build systems, continuous integration, or automated test infrastructure.
  • Experience building developer-facing tooling used daily by engineering teams.
  • Experience changing how engineering teams work regarding ownership models, review practices, and quality gates.
  • Experience owning delivery across teams as a technical program lead or in a role combining engineering and program ownership.
  • Fluency with current agent architecture patterns and experience adapting to their changes.
