## Job Description

Energy Exemplar is seeking a Vice President of Engineering to lead engineering strategy, technical execution, and organisational integration for an acquired platform. The successful candidate will build and scale a high-performing engineering organisation, modernise the technology platform, deliver against the product roadmap, and execute technical initiatives.

## Key Responsibilities

### Engineering Strategy & Platform Modernisation

- Lead engineering strategy and execution for the acquired platform, ensuring alignment with Energy Exemplar's broader technology vision.

- Establish engineering operating models, technical standards, and development processes that support scalable, predictable delivery.

- Build and develop a high-performing global engineering organisation while fostering a strong engineering culture.

### Technology Stack Consolidation

- Lead the consolidation and rationalisation of the technology stack across the combined organisations.

- Drive technical simplification, reduce duplication, and establish a unified platform architecture.

### Legacy Platform Modernisation

- Lead the re-engineering of legacy Fortran and other legacy codebases into a modern, scalable software architecture.

- Develop a phased engineering strategy that minimises customer disruption while accelerating technical transformation.

### Platform Integration & APIs

- Drive the engineering delivery of API-first capabilities and headless integrations between PLEXOS and the acquired platform.

- Establish integration architecture that enables cross-product workflows and supports future platform expansion.

### Engineering Delivery

- Partner closely with Product Management to deliver the product roadmap through disciplined engineering execution.

- Improve engineering predictability through release planning, agile delivery practices, quality standards, DevOps, and automation.

- Drive continuous improvement in software quality, performance, scalability, and security.

### Global Engineering Leadership

- Lead distributed engineering teams across Europe and India.

- Align priorities, standardise engineering processes, improve collaboration, and eliminate duplicated effort across teams.

- Coach and develop engineering leaders while building organisational capability.

- Engineering support for subscription product delivery and commercial growth initiatives.

- Improved collaboration across Engineering, Product, Solutions, and Sales.

- Technical readiness for future North American expansion.

## Candidate Requirements

- 15+ years of experience leading enterprise software engineering organisations within complex B2B SaaS or enterprise software businesses.

- Significant experience as a VP of Engineering, Head of Engineering, Engineering Director, or equivalent senior technical leader.

- Proven experience leading post-acquisition technology integration and engineering transformation.

- A track record of building and scaling high-performing global engineering organisations.

- Extensive experience modernising legacy software platforms and reducing technical debt.

- Strong expertise in modern software architecture, cloud-native platforms, API-first architecture, distributed systems, platform scalability, DevOps and CI/CD, engineering governance, and SDLC best practices.

- Experience leading large-scale platform integration and technology consolidation initiatives.

- Experience managing geographically distributed engineering teams.

- Experience partnering effectively with Product Management to deliver customer-centric roadmaps.

- Familiarity with computationally intensive, modelling, optimisation, or analytics software is highly desirable.

- Exposure to energy software, utilities, infrastructure, or industrial technology is advantageous.
