Key Responsibilities
Organizational Leadership: Lead and grow a 50-100 engineer organization across multiple payer product groups, including direct management of Engineering Managers and senior technical leads and architects.
Technical Strategy: Own the multi-year engineering roadmap — cloud cost optimization, platform consolidation, and AI-assisted engineering adoption.
Engineering Excellence: Raise the bar on quality through CI/CD standards, robust release gates, and measurable improvements in DORA metrics and defect escape rates.
Delivery Ownership: Oversee end-to-end delivery across multiple products — feature releases, NFR validation, load testing, and production readiness.
Stakeholder Engagement: Represent engineering in executive forums, customer briefings, and technical leadership sessions; translate technical risk and trade-offs into clear business narrative.
People & Culture: Build talent pipelines, drive succession planning, and foster a culture of ownership, continuous improvement, and psychological safety.
Domain Knowledge (preferred): Hands‑on familiarity with healthcare payer workflows — claims, EDI, eligibility, enrolment, and benefits — is a strong plus.
Required Qualifications
Experience: 15+ years in software engineering with 7+ years in engineering leadership; proven track record managing 50+ engineer organizations across multiple product groups in a software product company.
Technical Depth: Strong architectural grounding in cloud-native development (AWS or Azure); hands‑on background in Java, Python, or .NET; microservices, API design, and event‑driven architectures.
Engineering Practices: Solid command of CI/CD, DevSecOps, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), and modern Agile or SAFe delivery methodologies.
AI Tooling: Hands‑on adoption of GenAI tooling to improve engineering productivity or quality in a product engineering context.
Leadership & Communication: Strong executive communication and stakeholder management skills; demonstrated ability to lead in matrixed, distributed, or offshore‑heavy engineering organizations.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience in healthcare payer products: claims, EDI, eligibility, enrolment, or benefits — in a health plan, TPA, or payer software company.
Background in multi‑tenant SaaS product development serving health plans or TPAs.
