## Description

This Senior Manager role sits at the intersection of software engineering, reliability engineering, and applied AI. The team builds and operates production systems that are themselves AI-enabled, while also adopting AI-accelerated development practices in how those systems are designed, shipped, and maintained.

Key Responsibilities:

- Lead a software engineering team responsible for building, shipping, and operating production software at the intersection of AI and software engineering.

- Set and drive the team's roadmap across feature delivery, reliability investments, AI-enabled capabilities, and operational improvements.

- Manage, coach, and develop software engineers and tech leads, including goal setting, performance management, hiring, and succession planning.

- Partner closely with product, AI engineering, platform, infrastructure, and downstream stakeholders to align on priorities, trade-offs, and delivery commitments.

- Establish and reinforce engineering norms around design review, code review, testing, release management, on-call, incident response, and production ownership for the systems your team owns.

- Drive reliability and operational excellence across your team's services, including service ownership, observability, release confidence, and preventative work that reduces recurring classes of failure.

- Raise the bar on how the team applies AI to its own engineering work, including effective use of AI coding assistants, agentic automation, and evaluation-driven development of AI-enabled features.

- Ensure your team builds AI-enabled systems responsibly, with practical quality, safety, and reliability controls appropriate to non-deterministic behavior.

- Contribute to cross-team engineering standards, operating mechanisms, and platform decisions as a senior manager inside CorpTech Platform.

- Communicate strategy, risks, trade-offs, and execution status clearly to senior engineering leadership and cross-functional partners.
