As a lead software engineer, you are accountable for shaping and delivering end-to-end solutions for enterprise-grade platforms and complex initiatives. You set technical direction, define and govern architecture, and lead delivery execution for a specific solution area while influencing adjacent domains. You are hands‑on and outcome‑driven: designing and building critical path components, raising engineering standards, and scaling team effectiveness through mentorship, patterns, and automation.

You also pioneer responsible AI‑assisted engineering by establishing guardrails, validations, and governance that enable speed without compromising quality. This opportunity is with the Enterprise Data Management Office (EDMO), where you will deliver Data Catalog services as a product, driving enterprise‑wide data discovery, governance, and self‑service access to trusted data assets. An end-to-end technical solution is delivered predictably with strong SDLC discipline, from design to build, test, deploy and operate. trade‑offs are explicit and risk‑managed.

Cloud architecture and infrastructure decisions support scalable, resilient, secure and cost‑effective platform growth across diverse deployment environments. Engineering quality improves quarter‑over‑quarter through standards, automation and coaching across security, performance and maintainability. Teams ship faster with confidence due to reusable patterns, platform capabilities and AI‑enabled workflows with robust guardrails.

Customer

Drive hands‑on engineering and modernization: deliver critical components, resolve bottlenecks and implement target‑state architecture with incremental, de‑risked migration strategies. Ensure resilient, scalable and efficient platforms: define and validate NFRs, automate delivery, manage dependencies and continuously improve performance, availability and cost efficiency. Lead cloud architecture and engineering decisions across diverse cloud environments, selecting scalable infrastructure patterns, deployment models and integration approaches that align with enterprise standards.

AI Workflow Innovation & Governance Champion AI‑assisted development using modern copilots and LLM agents to accelerate delivery while maintaining enterprise‑grade standards. Design and roll out AI guardrails, including approved use cases, prompt patterns, code provenance expectations and documentation standards. Implement validation pipelines for AI‑generated code, including linting / formatting, unit and integration tests, SAST / DAST, dependency scanning, secret detection and architectural rules.





Define human‑in‑the‑loop review requirements, including code review checklists, threat modelling and design reviews for high‑risk changes. Establish a repeatable AI workflow for the team, including task decomposition, generation, verification, refactoring and documentation, and measure cycle‑time impact. Promote responsible use across privacy, data handling, IP considerations, auditability and compliance with internal policies and external regulations.

Ensure governance, compliance and risk alignment: adhere to enterprise frameworks, drive approvals and manage policies in line with business priorities and risk appetite.

Drive quality and operational excellence: enforce shift‑left quality, lead design and code reviews, and oversee release readiness and operational gating.
