Responsibilities

Lead one or more development teams through complex, multi-quarter delivery work on software the E&P industry depends on.
Set technical direction and stay one of the strongest engineers in your area.
Own delivery: what the teams ship and how reliably they ship it.
Develop and lead the engineers who report to you.
Shape the architecture and technical roadmap of the products you own, and make decisions that hold up across multiple releases.
Scope major technical work: estimate effort, identify risks, and define the delivery approach.
Serve as the first technical escalation point when hard problems surface in your area: architectural disagreements, production issues, and deep technical unknowns.
Evaluate architecture and implementation for performance, scalability, and security weaknesses, and see improvements through to resolution.
Challenge the delivery process when it produces slow feedback, unnecessary risk, or poor outcomes.
Stay current on tools, practices, and technologies relevant to your area, and lead adoption where they improve the product.
Work directly with Product Management and architects to design new applications and major enhancements, and translate product goals into concrete technical plans.
Manage stakeholder relationships and communicate delivery status, technical trade-offs, and risks upward.
Define how your teams work and how they coordinate: delivery cadence, ownership boundaries within and between teams, and the bar for hiring and promotion.
Staff teams effectively by matching people to work based on skill, growth need, and delivery priority.
Manage and mentor the engineers and mid-level team leads on your teams through performance reviews, development plans, career conversations, and honest feedback.
Set and enforce code quality, security, and architectural standards across your teams through reviews, direct feedback, and the technical culture you build.
Own the technical debt in your area: decide what actually matters, get it into the delivery plan, and see it resolved.
