We're transforming how buildings operate, making them more intelligent, efficient, and sustainable at scale. Since 2017, we've partnered with some of the world's largest real estate portfolios to deliver measurable energy savings and operational excellence. But we're just getting started.\nThe smart buildings industry needs bold thinking and better solutions. We're here to set the standard: moving fast, building fearlessly, and proving what's possible when technology meets infrastructure. At KODE, results speak louder than titles, and every person drives meaningful impact.\nThe Opportunity\nKODE is growing quickly, and our ability to deliver projects fast, accurately, and with strong technical quality is critical to our next stage of growth.\nWe’re looking for a Delivery Engineering Lead to become the technical backbone of our Delivery organization. This person will support our cohort Engineering Team Leads, serve as the first point of escalation for engineering blockers, review project engineering plans before they become risks, and help ensure projects are delivered with the right technical approach from the beginning. This person will not simply be another engineer who gets pulled into hard problems. They will be responsible for creating more structure, consistency, and technical confidence across the engineering organization.\nThis is the right role for someone who is highly technical, deeply operational, and energized by solving hard problems while also turning those learnings into scalable systems for the whole team.\nWhat You'll Do\nEngineering Escalation & Technical Support\nServe as the first point of engineering escalation - Support our Engineering Team Leads when they are blocked, unsure of the right technical path, or need help resolving complex engineering issues.\n\nUnblock engineering work quickly - Jump into technical blockers, diagnose the issue, determine the right path forward, and either solve the issue directly or route it to the right SME to minimize any project timeline slippage\n\nCreate a clear escalation process - Ensure engineering escalations are raised, documented, routed, and resolved in a consistent way.\n\nEngineering Standardization\nBuild scalable engineering systems - Create processes that allow engineers and Engineering Team Leads to handle more work with less confusion and fewer mistakes.\n\nImprove documentation and playbooks - Maintain practical engineering documentation that helps the team execute consistently across project types, verticals, modules, and technical scenarios.\n\nTurn hard problems into repeatable solutions - When unusual or difficult issues arise, capture the lessons learned and convert them into standards, reusable approaches, or automation.\n\nEngineering Team Leadership\nTrain and develop engineers - Build training programs, coaching moments, and recurring learning loops to improve the technical strength of the engineering organization.\n\nOwn planning and resource readiness - Work with Engineering Team Leads to ensure project scopes are technically sound, required information has been collected, integration paths are understood, and major risks have been identified early.\n\nPromote accountability - Ensure engineering work is accurate, complete, and aligned with KODE standards before it reaches the client or Client Success team.\n\nGrow Engineering Team Leads - Manage and develop Engineering Team Leads so they become stronger technically, more consistent operationally, and more effective at managing their groups of engineers.\n\nEngineering Innovation\nMake engineering delivery faster - Identify manual, repetitive, or error-prone parts of engineering execution and create better workflows, templates, and tools to improve performance.\n\nDrive integration automation - Work on data ingestion automation and similar workflow improvements that allow KODE OS to connect to building infrastructure faster and more efficiently.\n\nRequirements\nWhat We're Looking For\nRequired\n7+ years of experience in technical implementation, building systems engineering, smart buildings, integrations, software implementation, or technical delivery, with experience supporting or leading engineering teams.\n\nStrong technical understanding of building systems, integrations, networks, BMS/BAS environments, IoT systems, or technical deployment workflows.\n\nStrong operational instincts: you know how to spot risk, simplify execution, create structure, and prevent issues before they become project blockers.\n\nStrong communication skills with the ability to explain technical trade offs clearly to PMs, Engineering Team Leads, Delivery leadership, SMEs, and client-facing teams.\n\nStrong people leadership skills, with a track record of coaching team members, raising performance, and creating accountability.\n\nStrong documentation and process management skills, with the ability to own and maintain engineering documentation, standards, and playbooks.\n\nPreferred\nExperience building lightweight automation, internal tools, dashboards, scripts, or workflows that improve technical team productivity.\n\nExperience supporting enterprise clients, complex technical deployments, or multi-stakeholder implementation projects.\n\nExperience with KODE OS or similar configurable technical platforms.\n\nA doer-leader mindset: someone who can manage the team, build the system, and jump into projects when needed.\n\nBenefits\nWhy Join KODE\nMassive Impact: Your work directly informs the efficiency and sustainability efforts of some of the world's largest real estate portfolios, deliveringtangible value that matters.\n\nReal Ownership: You'll own the full lifecycle of energy data deployment, influencing data standards, product roadmaps, and client strategy.\n\nVelocity & Support: We move fast and hold high standards, believing in continuous improvement and providing the resources needed to succeed.\n\nGrowth Trajectory: As the energy module scales rapidly, so will this role. You'll be a foundational member of the growing Mission Control team.\n\nMerit-Driven Culture: Your results speak louder than your resume. Good ideas win, regardless of where they come from.\n\nBenefits\nCompetitive salary based on experience\nDiscretionary Bonus Program\nCareer Development Program\nComprehensive Health Insurance Package\nDynamic team and challenging projects\nFlexible Paid Time Off\nWelcoming and friendly work environment\nRegular social events and activities\nOur Commitment\nWe're building a diverse team from different backgrounds, industries, and perspectives. We believe the best ideas come from varied experiences, and we're committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can do their best work.\nYou're encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't perfectly match every requirement. We value problem-solving, adaptability, and strong communication just as much as industry-specific experience. Let's talk about what you can bring to KODE.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6981,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Health insurance"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Smart Building & Cities"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-11T22:54:17Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":23,"reasons":["conf:0","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-12T06:27:13Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/kode-labs-delivery-engineering-lead","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/kode-labs-delivery-engineering-lead.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-12T06:27:13Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":10376,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-13T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4414432},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4414432"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fkode-labs-delivery-engineering-lead"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fkode-labs-delivery-engineering-lead"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fkode-labs-delivery-engineering-lead"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/kode-labs-delivery-engineering-lead\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fkode-labs-delivery-engineering-lead"}]}
