Guide teams in the design, evolution, and operation of scalable, reliable, and maintainable systems, especially in areas spanning multiple services and product domains.
Act as a senior technical leader who can dive deep into architecture discussions, review designs, and help teams navigate complex technical trade-offs.
Ensure high standards of engineering quality, including system reliability, performance, security, and operational excellence.
Balance short-term delivery needs with long-term technical health, actively managing technical debt and platform evolution.
Execution & Delivery

Build, communicate, and continuously refine a clear technical and execution roadmap aligned with business and product goals.
Drive clarity in ambiguous problem spaces by breaking down complex initiatives into actionable plans with measurable outcomes.
Identify risks early, unblock teams, and make timely decisions to maintain momentum in fast-moving environments.
Cross-Functional & Cross-Team Collaboration
Partner closely with Product, Design, Data, and other Engineering teams to deliver cohesive, end-to-end solutions.
Coordinate effectively across multiple teams and stakeholders, aligning dependencies and resolving conflicts to optimize for speed and impact.
Communicate clearly and regularly with senior leaders, providing crisp updates on progress, risks, and trade-offs.
Foster strong collaboration across ServiceTitan, especially when working on initiatives that cut across existing systems and ownership boundaries.
