Responsibilities

• Drive technical excellence across six Developer Experience teams by providing hands‑on engineering contributions and leadership.
• Champion engineering needs by gathering feedback, translating pain points into actionable improvements, and shaping the Developer Experience roadmap.
• Transform testing at scale, modernising the testing framework to support rapid, reliable feedback for developers.
• Optimize CI/CD pipelines, reducing merge friction and enhancing iterative feedback loops.
