• Manage technical debt, dependency upgrades, vulnerability remediation and lifecycle risks through a prioritized roadmap.
• Estimate work, identify risks early and communicate options and trade-offs clearly to leadership.
• Mentor engineers, delegate decisions, broaden team knowledge and avoid dependency on individual contributors.

Essential Qualifications and Education:

• 10+ years of enterprise software-development experience, including business-critical web applications.
• 3+ years as a Development Lead, Technical Lead or comparable engineering leader.
• 5+ years of hands-on Angular and TypeScript experience.
• 5+ years of hands-on Java and Spring Boot experience.
• 2+ years of practical Python development for APIs, services, integrations, automation or data processing.
• Demonstrated leadership of approximately five or more engineers through direct or matrix accountability.
• Strong experience with cloud platforms, CI/CD, microservices, REST APIs, databases and code-review practices.
• Proven ownership of architecture decisions, secure delivery, production support and root-cause resolution.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience.
• 10+ years of enterprise software development and 3+ years of technical-leadership experience.
• 5+ years of Angular experience covering TypeScript, component architecture, routing, forms, responsive design, state management, performance and testing.
• 5+ years of Java and Spring Boot experience covering REST APIs, dependency injection, persistence, exception handling and service design.
• 2+ years of Python experience for APIs, services, integration, automation or data-processing use cases.
• Experience leading or mentoring a team of approximately five or more developers.
• Strong knowledge of secure API and microservices design, validation, versioning, failure handling and distributed-system fundamentals.
• Working knowledge of SQL, relational databases, data modeling and transaction management.
• Experience with Azure, AWS or OCI; Git workflows; CI/CD; automated deployment; and environment-based configuration.
• Experience with unit, integration and end-to-end testing, quality gates, code scanning and security scanning.
• Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot production issues across browser, API, application, database and integration layers.
• Strong estimation, planning, risk-management, stakeholder and technical-communication skills.
• Docker and Kubernetes or equivalent managed container platforms.
• Event-driven architecture and messaging technologies such as Kafka.
• Python frameworks such as FastAPI, Flask or Django; JPA or Hibernate for Java persistence.
• OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, enterprise identity providers and role-based access control.
• Web accessibility, internationalization, caching, content delivery and front-end performance optimization.
• Application performance monitoring, centralized logging and distributed tracing.
• DevSecOps, threat modeling, OWASP awareness, software-composition analysis and secrets management.
• Legacy modernization, monolith decomposition and reduction of unnecessary technology complexity.
• Remain hands-on enough to review critical code, prototype approaches and lead difficult troubleshooting without becoming the team bottleneck.
• Create clear ownership across front-end, back-end, integration, testing and operational-readiness work.
• Select technology based on business fit, supportability, security and total lifecycle cost.
• Protect quality during schedule pressure through explicit, risk-based trade-offs.
• Develop successors and broaden knowledge so critical applications are not dependent on one engineer.
• Give timely, respectful and actionable feedback that improves delivery and capability.

Our ingenuity fuels daily life. Together, we’ve forged some of the most trusted partnerships across the energy value chain to make what was once just an idea a reality: laying subsea infrastructure thousands of feet below sea level, installing platforms hundreds of miles from shore, using our expertise to design and build offshore wind infrastructure, and reshaping the onshore landscape to deliver the energy products the world needs safely and sustainably.

For more than 100 years, we've been making the impossible possible. Today, we're driving the energy transition with more than 30,000 of the brightest minds across 54 countries.
