We’re seeking a Lead Software Engineer to lead our Enabling Services Generic Genius Team, focusing on identity and onboarding services for our EdTech Platform-as-a-Service (ePaaS). Your mission will be to make onboarding faster and easier for new ePaaS customers. You’ll oversee service development, governance, and maintenance, collaborate with stakeholders, and drive continuous improvement and innovation.

Key Responsibilities:
• Lead service development and maintenance for identity and onboarding services.
• Collaborate with other ePaaS teams to deliver easy-to-use, fast, reliable, secure, and scalable services.
• Mentor team members, contribute to the codebase, and support team growth and success.

• Ability to learn, adapt, and focus on providing value to teachers and students.
• Experience in coding, mentoring, and a passion for team development.

What You'll Do:

• Be the driving engineering force on your team and be able to clearly communicate business goals to your team.

• Be an organizational leader in unlocking the potential of data to improve our ePaaS platform.

• Collaborate with your partner product and program leaders to push projects forward by removing obstacles, think beyond the MVP, and clearly communicate status to stakeholders.

• Balance the need to solve deep technical problems with the larger macro goal of delivering software expediently and efficiently across a distributed microservice architecture.

• Analyze business requirements and identify possible gaps, ambiguities, missing scenarios, etc.

• Design and implement sound engineering solutions that meet the business need.

• Solve problems quickly and collaboratively.

• Present a passion for the ePaaS mission.

• Advocate for processes, either by maintaining existing ones, modifying them, adding new ones, or even eliminating processes, to improve the efficacy, quality, and morale of your team.

• Work with product, engineering, SRE, and other leadership to understand how your solutions will be planned, developed, implemented, and supported.

• Contribute to CI/CD processes to allow for smoother releases and increasing team confidence.

• Use your interpersonal skills and ability to collaborate effectively with product sponsors and senior leadership in engineering and the greater business

• Work with a distributed team to solve problems quickly and collaboratively

• Consider the full lifecycle of solutions when building them from initial conception to launch then maintenance all the way to sunsetting

• Mentor junior engineers to help grow their professional careers.

About You:

• You have demonstrated leadership experience in the past in a modern engineering environment, working across the full tech stack. Your motivation to lead is intrinsic and not from a belief that the sole means of career growth mandates management. At our client, your opportunities for growth don't require you to take your career a direction you're not interested in.

• You know that ceremonies (daily standups, sprint reviews, etc.) aren't to be performed for their own sake, but you know why such ceremonies are held. You believe Agile and Scrum are mindsets, not a strict playbook that must be followed, but rather you run your team how you, and they, best feel will result in positive outcomes.

• You design APIs that are meant to be consumed by others, so ease of use, simplistic design, and other attributes that benefit interoperability are key.

• You believe in understanding why work is being done and empathizing with the users, not just implementing code and moving onto the next task.

• You are outspoken in your beliefs and seek out and use data to drive decisions to help your team and project succeed.

• You have demonstrated software delivery experience with a distributed product & engineering team.

• You enjoy researching new technologies and methodologies and have a keen desire to dig into complex technical issues.

• You can work in a fast-paced software release environment, where you continuously deliver production-grade software daily for a system with millions of users around the world.

• You have contributed to the full software development life cycle, including writing application code, unit/integration/automation tests, documentation, and performance and security engineering.
