Job introduction:
You value people and relationships as much as technology. You embrace simple, efficient user experiences and know that technology done correctly can make a significant impact with its users; that engineering done properly provides a rewarding experience to those developing it.
We have many applications used by thousands of internal call center reps, that manage our customers contact, billing, and policy data. These applications are at different stages of cloud migration and your goal will be to deliver them to AWS while meeting our architectural and operational standards (e.g. observability).
If youre a curious learner who has a passion for getting things done, thrives in an environment of servant leadership, and has a wealth of Agile know-how, and finds these types of problems interesting, we want you to join our tech team! As an experienced Software Engineering Manager, you will bring direct coaching, an agile/lean mindset and mastery of XP practices to your dedicated teams. You view cloud native solutions on AWS as a competitive advantage, but can make tough tradeoffs as you negotiate priorities with collaborating product owners.
You will lead by creating a shared vision, empowering and serving engineers by removing obstacles and helping them grow. You will constantly energize and enable your teams to rapidly and reliably deliver business value by engaging customers, continuously learning, and adapting allowing teams to rapidly pivot.
Most importantly, you'll be engaged in meaningful work for an organization that is committed to "helping people live safer, more secure lives" every day.
