In this role, you will lead the Platform Engineering team that oversees all the platforms that deliver our learning capabilities. The biggest platforms are for Documentation which delivers 60M page views a year and University which delivers 20M page views per year. You will manage a team of 18 engineers who bring in the “best of class” technologies into our infrastructures, integrate them and also develop apps/extensions to meet our learning vision and needs.

  • Bring in "best of class" technologies into infrastructures
  • Develop apps and extensions to enhance learning capabilities
  • Play a key role in shaping the technological infrastructure supporting the organization's learning initiatives

We’re looking for someone with…

  • 15+ years of experience in the industry, and 5+ years of experience managing others 
  • Experience with MongoDB (or at least a track record of solutioning with other databases)
  • Successful track record in managing a team of managers and engineers 
  • Ability to work at a strategic level to contribute to the vision of Education and also at a tactical level to move projects forward
  • Ability to take business requirements at a strategic level and “solution it” i.e. design architectures and solutions to enable new learning capabilities
  • Passion for integrations – we bring together multiple technologies to build the best experience for our learners
  • Passion to experiment with new technologies like AI and look at cross functional technical projects including back end, front end, web traffic and analytics projects
  • Strong leadership skills to build strong cross team relationships and alignment

To drive the personal growth and business impact of our employees, we’re committed to developing a supportive and enriching culture for everyone. From employee affinity groups, to fertility assistance and a generous parental leave policy, we value our employees’ wellbeing and want to support them along every step of their professional and personal journeys.
