About The Position

This role is designed for a leader with broad technology experience who can help manage engineering capacity, lead priority initiatives, and partner closely with product, platform, security, and architecture teams to drive enterprise outcomes. The Supervisor II will balance people leadership, delivery execution, and continuous improvement, while helping translate CoE strategy into actionable results.
