About the Role

As Interim Head of Engineering, you will play a pivotal role in leading the technology function through a period of significant transformation. Working directly with the Chief Product Officer and the executive team you will deliver on three key priorities:

This will include considerations for potential mergers and acquisitions (M&A) to augment their capabilities and a strategic re-platforming from legacy systems to a modern React Now architecture.
  2. Legacy Development Clearance: You will oversee a strategic operational exercise to clear a backlog of legacy development tasks, updates, and deliveries. This will involve effective prioritisation, resource allocation, and collaboration across teams to ensure efficient completion.
  3. Dev Ops Team Resurgence: You will take charge of the current Dev Ops team, addressing any existing dysfunctionalities and implementing strategies to stabilise operations. This will involve rebuilding a high-performing team culture, optimising workflows, and establishing best practices for software development and deployment.
Key Responsibilities
  • Lead the development and execution of a future-proof technology roadmap.
  • Conduct due diligence on potential M&A opportunities from a technology perspective.
  • Oversee the migration of their platform from legacy systems to React Now.
  • Develop and implement a strategy to clear the backlog of legacy developments and updates.
  • Manage and lead the Dev Ops team, fostering a collaborative and high-performing environment.
  • Identify and implement improvements to Dev Ops processes and workflows.
  • Champion best practices for software development and deployment.
  • Collaborate effectively with the Chief Product Officer, executive team, and other departments.
Key Skills & Experience

Proven experience as a senior engineering leader with a successful track record in delivering complex technical projects. Strong understanding of modern software development methodologies (e.g., Agile, DevOps). Experience in leading and motivating high-performing engineering teams. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build strong relationships across all levels of the organisation. Experience in conducting technical due diligence for M&A transactions (desirable). Experience with React Now development (desirable).
