• Design products and services using secure programming practices; identify, rectify, and prevent security vulnerabilities in both existing and new applications; ensure that secure practices are ingrained in design, implementation, testing, and deployment.

• Estimate project work that encompasses multiple product areas, considering time, resources, skills, sequencing, dependencies, and risks.

• Proactively recognize technologies, tools, frameworks, patterns, or automation opportunities that enhance engineering effectiveness, delivery speed, quality, reliability, or business results.

• Develop and present proposed solution strategies for new technologies, engineering practices, automation opportunities, and agentic tooling patterns; collaborate with architecture and engineering leadership to review and sanction proposals.

• Mentor and guide other software engineers in software design, engineering practices, AI-assisted development, effective utilization of agentic tools, testing discipline, and operational accountability.

• Actively seek mentorship, feedback, and technical insights from peers, principal engineers, architects, product partners, and leadership.

• Lead initiatives to define and enhance the engineering lifecycle and practices for the team and related teams in collaboration with principal engineers and engineering leadership.

• Foster collaboration across multiple teams; discover methods to improve team output by empowering others, refining shared practices, reducing friction, and scaling knowledge.

• Anticipate business needs and present technical alternatives, trade-offs, risks, and recommendations to leadership, product managers, and business stakeholders.

• Continuously enhance team processes by identifying repeatable tasks that can be automated, expedited, or improved through tools, scripts, templates, AI agents, CI/CD enhancements, monitoring, or documentation practices.

• Other duties or responsibilities as assigned based on team and/or country-specific requirements.
