Director, Developer Effectiveness

Euna Solutions•Oakville, ON

22h•CA$150,000 - CA$190,000•Hybrid

About The Position

As Director, Developer Effectiveness at Euna Solutions, you'll operate with executive visibility and a horizontal mandate — embedding alongside Development and IS Directors to surface waste, model ROI, and shape how the organization invests in its own productivity. This isn't an oversight function; it's a trusted advisory seat at the table, and your influence will be earned through the quality of your analysis.

Requirements

Proven experience in an engineering effectiveness, developer productivity, or analytical operations role — ideally within a SaaS or software development environment
Deep familiarity with productivity frameworks such as DORA, SPACE, or equivalent, and the ability to adapt them to an organization's specific context
Strong financial and ROI modelling skills, with experience building investment cases that resonate with Finance and executive stakeholders
Demonstrated ability to influence without authority — earning credibility through rigorous, actionable insight rather than positional power
Experience working horizontally across engineering or IS organizations, partnering with senior directors and VPs to shape priorities
Comfortable operating in ambiguity, building structure where little exists and establishing baselines from imperfect data

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with tooling and instrumentation across CI/CD pipelines, issue tracking, or developer experience platforms
Prior exposure to backlog and roadmap governance in an Agile environment
Experience presenting productivity and ROI narratives directly to C-suite audiences

Responsibilities

Own the strategy for delivery data capture and instrumentation across all Development and IS teams
Identify waste, friction, and bottlenecks across the delivery lifecycle and translate findings into ranked, actionable priorities
Build and maintain productivity benchmarks using frameworks like DORA and SPACE, alongside custom metrics tailored to Euna's context
Model the ROI of productivity investments so Finance, the VP of Software Development, and the CTO can connect operational improvements to business outcomes
Partner directly with Dev and IS Directors to embed data-informed thinking into sprint planning and roadmap decisions
Develop and maintain an executive-facing productivity trend dashboard that tracks progress against established baselines
Identify innovation opportunities that can meaningfully accelerate developer and IS effectiveness
