Role Overview

Our client is a well-established omnichannel retail organization investing heavily in the future of its digital business.

• Partner closely with Product, Design, and cross-functional business leaders to align engineering priorities with strategic business objectives.
• Improve engineering processes, team operations, Agile practices, and delivery execution to increase quality, predictability, and efficiency.
• Communicate effectively with executive leadership by providing technical recommendations, project updates, and strategic insights.
• Identify operational challenges and lead organizational improvements with strong team engagement and buy-in.
• Balance long-term engineering strategy with day-to-day execution across multiple digital products and internal platforms.
  
  

Education & Qualifications

• 7 years of professional software engineering experience.
• Minimum of 3 years leading and developing engineering teams.
• Proven success building healthy, engaged, and high-performing engineering organizations.
• Strong technical foundation with the ability to contribute meaningfully to architectural discussions and technical decision-making.
• Experience leading engineering teams within Agile software development environments.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills across engineering, product, and executive leadership.
• Demonstrated ability to lead organizational change while maintaining strong team engagement and trust.
• Experience supporting ecommerce platforms, digital products, retail technology, or internal enterprise applications.
  
  

Preferred Experience

• Experience supporting Shopify-based ecommerce platforms or leading teams responsible for Shopify environments.
• Exposure to AI adoption initiatives and integrating AI into engineering workflows.
• Experience supporting internal enterprise applications, business systems, or intranet platforms.
• Background within retail, wholesale, ecommerce, or other consumer-focused organizations.
• Experience improving engineering culture, rebuilding team morale, or leading organizations through periods of transformation.

• Competitive salary plus incentive opportunities.
• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.
• 401(k) retirement savings plan.
• Generous paid time off.
