À propos
This is an opportunity to shape and scale a growing software engineering capability. The Software Engineering Leader will help define how the team builds solutions, develops talent, applies modern engineering practices, uses Microsoft and cloud technologies, integrates with client systems, and delivers meaningful outcomes for clients. The right person will bring technical credibility, leadership maturity, consulting judgment, and a practical vision for how software engineering, cloud platforms, low‑code tools, integrations, and AI‑enabled development can work together to solve real business problems. Key Responsibilities
Lead and develop a software engineering team delivering custom applications, integrations, automation, Microsoft platform solutions, cloud‑based solutions, and AI‑enabled software. Provide technical leadership across a broad range of solution types, including full‑stack applications, APIs, Azure services, Power Platform, SharePoint, Dataverse, workflow automation, DBX integration work, data‑platform integrations, and client‑environment solutions. Establish and mature engineering standards for architecture, development, testing, documentation, deployment, security, supportability, and maintainability. Guide solution design decisions, including when to use custom code, Microsoft platform capabilities, cloud‑native services, automation tools, AI‑enabled capabilities, or a hybrid approach. Partner with client‑facing teams to scope opportunities, estimate work, assess technical feasibility, manage delivery risk, and support successful project execution. Create practical delivery patterns, reusable templates, accelerators, estimation models, and implementation standards that improve consistency, quality, and margin. Lead engineering practices related to code review, solution review, DevOps, CI/CD, release management, QA, production readiness, and operational support. Support work delivered in client environments, adapting to client technology stacks, security requirements, infrastructure constraints, data access patterns, deployment processes, and governance requirements. Mentor and coach engineers across different skill sets—including pro‑code developers, Microsoft platform engineers, automation specialists, cloud engineers, and emerging technical leads. Help define hiring needs, role expectations, career paths, skill development plans, and team structure as the software engineering capability grows. Promote the responsible use of AI‑enabled development tools for coding, testing, documentation, analysis, solution design, and delivery acceleration. Ensure AI‑assisted work is reviewed appropriately and aligns with expectations for quality, security, confidentiality, maintainability, and client value. Build a strong engineering culture that values technical excellence, practical problem solving, accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and client impact. Ideal Candidate Profile
Hands‑on technical leader who has grown beyond individual contribution into team leadership, architecture, delivery oversight, and capability building. Comfortable leading engineers, communicating with business stakeholders, and guiding technical decisions without overcomplicating solutions. Understands that successful consulting delivery requires clear scope, strong communication, delivery discipline, maintainable design, quality control, and practical judgment. Required Qualifications
Minimum of 6 years relevant experience in software engineering, solution architecture, or related roles; 7 years preferred. Bachelor’s degree required, or an acceptable combination of experience, education, and training. Preferred Qualifications
3+ years of experience leading engineers, technical teams, delivery teams, or architecture functions. Strong understanding of modern software engineering practices—architecture, APIs, integrations, cloud platforms, DevOps, testing, documentation, deployment, and supportability. Experience with Microsoft technologies such as Azure, Microsoft365, Power Platform, SharePoint, Dataverse, AzureDevOps, GitHub, SQL, EntraID, or related tools. Ability to evaluate technical trade‑offs across custom software, low‑code platforms, cloud services, automation tools, integrations, and AI‑enabled solutions. Experience establishing or improving engineering standards, delivery processes, code review practices, QA expectations, release management, and production readiness. Ability to lead teams delivering work in varied technical environments, including client‑owned environments with unique security, infrastructure, and governance requirements. Strong communication skills, translating technical concepts for business stakeholders, client leaders, and executive audiences. Experience mentoring engineers, developing technical talent, and helping teams grow in capability and delivery maturity. Experience in consulting, professional services, client‑facing technology delivery, managed services, or project‑based delivery environments. Experience leading blended teams that include software engineers, cloud engineers, Microsoft platform engineers, Power Platform developers, automation specialists, or data integration professionals. Hands‑on or leadership experience with Azure services, APIs, App Services, Azure Functions, SQL, API Management, Key Vault, storage services, infrastructure patterns, and CI/CD pipelines. Hands‑on or leadership experience with Power Apps, Power Automate, SharePoint, Dataverse, Copilot Studio, Power Platform governance, or Power Platform application lifecycle management. Experience with DBX integration work, data platform integrations, enterprise system integrations, or solutions connecting multiple client systems and data sources. Experience using or governing AI‑enabled development tools, including code generation, AI‑assisted testing, documentation support, agent‑based applications, or Microsoft Copilot‑related technologies. Experience building reusable engineering assets, delivery frameworks, templates, accelerators, or technical standards that improve scalability and consistency. Understanding of consulting economics—estimation, utilization, margin, delivery risk, change management, and client expectation management. Key Skills
