This is a strategic, hands-on role where you’ll guide the stability of business-critical systems, connect cross-functional teams, and lead continuous improvements that directly impact millions of users.

• A thoughtful communicator—able to bridge technical teams and business leaders with clarity and confidence
• Skilled at managing vendors and aligning delivery with strategic goals
