This is a hands-on technical leadership role with ownership across architecture, delivery, security, performance, and ongoing operations.

• Partner with IT Security to ensure platforms align with SOC 2, ISO 27001, and secure-by-design principles.
• Oversee CI/CD pipelines, environment management, and deployment workflows.
• Ensure documentation, runbooks, and operational processes are in place and maintained.

Integration & Enterprise Systems

• Design and oversee integrations with enterprise platforms such as AWS, Salesforce, Informatica (or similar data/integration tools), and other internal systems.
• Collaborate with Data, Applications, and Security teams to ensure clean, reliable, and secure data flows.
• Support headless and API-first approaches for content, commerce, and partner experiences.

Vendor & Stakeholder Leadership

• Manage and coordinate external web development vendors and partners, ensuring quality, accountability, and alignment with architectural standards.
• Act as a trusted technical advisor to business stakeholders, translating requirements into scalable technical solutions.
• Influence roadmaps and investment decisions through strong technical judgment and clear communication.

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in web development and architecture, with a strong focus on modern web platforms.
• Proven experience leading large-scale web modernization or platform replacement initiatives.
• Deep understanding of JAMstack, headless CMS, and composable architectures.
• Strong hands-on experience with modern JavaScript frameworks and tooling.
• Experience designing and operating production systems on AWS.
• Strong understanding of web security, performance optimization, and operational best practices.

Preferred Qualifications
