Chief Steam Engineer jobs

The Applications Development Group Manager is a senior leadership position responsible for driving engineering excellence through team leadership, strategic technical direction, and a strong foundation in modern DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices. This role leads by example — fostering a culture of reliability, automation, and continuous improvement across the organization, with a forward-looking emphasis on leveraging AI to advance SRE capabilities.

Responsibilities:

• Lead & Develop Engineering Teams: Manage and mentor software engineers, providing guidance across technology disciplines, conducting performance evaluations, and supporting hiring and talent development decisions.

• Drive DevOps & SRE Culture: Champion DevOps principles and SRE practices across the organization — including infrastructure-as-code (IaC), observability, incident management, and reliability engineering.

• Ensure Platform Reliability & Resilience: Define and uphold service reliability standards (SLOs/SLAs/SLIs), lead incident response and post-mortem processes, and drive continuous improvements to system availability and performance.

• Advance SRE with AI: Leverage AI and machine learning capabilities to enhance SRE practices — including AI-driven anomaly detection, predictive incident management, intelligent root cause analysis, and automated remediation to improve platform reliability and reduce toil.

• Architect Scalable, Cloud-Native Solutions: Lead the design and implementation of systems built on modern technology stacks — including cloud platforms, microservices, and containerization — grounded in strong computer science and systems design fundamentals.

• Solve Complex Technical Challenges: Analyze and resolve complex technical issues with sound, strategic decision-making and a focus on long-term maintainability and scalability.

• Collaborate Across Functions: Partner with senior leaders, product teams, and external stakeholders to align technology initiatives with business goals and deliver impactful outcomes.

• Foster a Collaborative Team Environment: Cultivate a supportive, inclusive, and high-performing team culture that encourages knowledge sharing and continuous learning.

Qualifications:

• 10+ years of experience in system development, platform engineering, or related technology disciplines.

• Demonstrated success leading large-scale technology initiatives with measurable, impactful results.

• Strong background in DevOps and SRE practices, including CI/CD, infrastructure automation, observability (logging, metrics, tracing), and incident management.

• Experience applying AI and machine learning techniques to SRE workflows, such as predictive alerting, anomaly detection, automated root cause analysis, or intelligent remediation.

• Hands-on experience with enterprise cloud platforms, containerization and container orchestration, and microservices architecture.

• Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code (IaC) tools and modern deployment pipeline technologies.

• Solid understanding of system design, software engineering best practices, and testing methodologies.

• Excellent leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills.

• Strong problem-solving and strategic technical decision-making capabilities.
