As the Data & Analytics CoE Tech Lead, you will make application architecture decisions with the help of the team, while leveraging GenAI-supported insights, tools, or accelerators when relevant. You will deliver highly performant, tested, and scalable clean code, with openness to incorporating GenAI-assisted development practices when beneficial. You will also own product deployment and performance in production, potentially using GenAI-based observability or anomaly detection tools in the operating environment.

In this role, you will mentor and coach the technical team, including through code reviews and pair programming, and encourage thoughtful use of GenAI tools in the development process. You will anticipate and identify technical impediments and resolve them through architecture design, technology choices, or prioritization—considering GenAI’s role in enhancing or accelerating these pathways. Additionally, you will work closely with the Product Owner to align the roadmap with strengths and opportunities within the existing architecture, including GenAI-enabled processes.

You will act as a thought partner to the Product Owner in story creation and acceptance criteria, clearly communicating tradeoffs in a GenAI-aware environment. You will co-create engineering practices, coding style guidelines, and testing approaches, embedding GenAI considerations such as code suggestions, test automation, or documentation generation where appropriate. Finally, you will constantly look for better ways to solve technical problems and design solutions, remaining open to challenging the status quo and integrating GenAI-supported methods where they enhance team performance or quality.
