Overview:

The Lead Engineer IV is the team’s senior technical and delivery leader. Engineers do not report to this role administratively, but their day-to-day work is orchestrated and directed by it. The Lead Engineer IV remains a hands-on individual contributor while also running the team’s Agile process in a Scrum-Master-like capacity – facilitating ceremonies, sequencing work, and removing blockers – and owning the team’s technical direction, including how the team adopts and governs AI-assisted, agentic development practices. Responsibilities:

- Run the team’s Agile process end-to-end: facilitate sprint planning, standups, backlog refinement, reviews, and retrospectives.
- Orchestrate and coordinate the team’s day-to-day work – sequencing stories, balancing workload across engineers, and removing blockers – a Scrum-Master-like function performed alongside hands-on technical leadership.
- Own the team’s architecture and technical direction, including how code and workflows are structured to support safe, effective use of coding agents.
- Set team standards and guardrails for agentic development: prompting conventions, review requirements, and validation expectations for AI-generated code.




- Lead design and review of the team’s most complex features, stepping in personally on high-risk or ambiguous work.
- Mentor engineers at all levels on both core engineering skills and effective, responsible use of coding agents.
- Represent the team in stakeholder conversations, surfacing risks, dependencies, and delivery status.
- Evaluate and introduce recent agentic coding tools and workflows for the team, measuring impact on quality and velocity.

Qualifications:
- 8+ years of professional software development experience.
- Expert-level knowledge of .NET, Angular, and SQL Server.
- Experience running Agile teams or serving in a Scrum-Master-like capacity – facilitation, sprint planning, unblocking engineers – in addition to hands-on engineering.
- Strong experience with scalable, distributed systems.
- Demonstrated ability to orchestrate and prioritize a team’s workload and delivery without formal people-management authority.
- Track record of directing coding agents on complex, ambiguous, or high-stakes work, with sound judgment about risk and oversight.
