• As the CDI Engineering Manager, you will define and continuously improve the standards, tools and technical practices behind secure, scalable and reusable integration products. You will own engineering quality gates, developer experience and the AI-enabled software delivery lifecycle, working within the established CDI strategy and architecture guardrails.
• This is an opportunity to influence engineering practices across cross-functional teams and external partners, while enabling greater automation, delivery quality and continuous improvement.
