📋 Description

• You’ll shape the team’s technical excellence by driving sound architectural decisions, raising engineering standards, and ensuring our systems are resilient, scalable, and easy to evolve. • Your influence will streamline development workflows, reduce friction, and create an environment where engineers can move quickly without compromising quality. • You’ll strengthen our operational readiness by improving incident playbooks, observability, and team preparedness. • Through clear communication and structured planning, you’ll enable predictable delivery, better alignment with stakeholders, and a culture of continuous improvement. • Your leadership will directly improve reliability, developer experience, and long-term product stability. • You will lead a team of around 4–6 software engineers, balancing hands-on technical leadership (about 40%, including coding and technical decisions) with people management, planning, and delivery execution. • Working effectively with product managers, other engineers and business stakeholders on projects. • Guide the team toward pragmatic architectural choices that balance scalability, security, cost, and simplicity. • Establish and reinforce coding standards, patterns, and best practices through thoughtful code reviews and documentation. • Identify workflow bottlenecks and drive improvements to tooling, automation, local environments, and CI/CD pipelines. • Maintain clear, actionable incident playbooks and improve monitoring and alerting to reduce noise and increase confidence. • Break down work into well scoped increments and support predictable delivery through strong planning and risk management. • Champion reliability by ensuring services meet SLOs, have meaningful observability, and undergo effective post incident improvement. • Automate manual or repetitive processes to increase engineering efficiency and reduce operational toil. • Communicate technical decisions, risks, and trade-offs clearly to Product and cross functional partners. • Ensure engineering governance controls, testing requirements, and stage gates are consistently followed.

🎯 Requirements

• Strong experience in a software engineering team leadership role. • Experience of working in a shared responsibility leadership environment (Engineering, Product, Design and Data), taking strong accountability for your discipline area. • Experience of leveraging AI and LLM tooling and developing AI-powered customer-facing features. • Ability to use data and anecdotal evidence to drive change. • Ability to pivot as priorities and needs change without losing sight of long-term strategy. • A curious mind: You want to explore the unknown and brave enough to disrupt your own ways of working, and able to bring that to you teams. • Relentless focus on business and customer impact over raw technical output with an ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment. • Full Stack / Backend: Background in highly scalable systems, preferably built in Ruby on Rails. • Front End: Strong background in developing business system web applications, preferably with some experience of Ember. • Building systems on the AWS stack preferable.

🏖️ Benefits

• Promote an inclusive and diverse culture, in line with the Henry Schein One values.
