You will be expected to understand not only how individual platforms function, but how systems across the company interact, integrate, and evolve together. This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You will lead complex initiatives, solve challenging technical problems, build scalable solutions, and act as the escalation point for architecture, automation, and platform decisions. You will partner closely with partner teams like Engineering, Security, Legal, and business stakeholders while helping raise the technical and execution standards of the entire team.

Lead the technical direction of Lime's Core Applications ecosystem, shaping architecture, integration strategy, platform governance, and long-term design decisions that support scalable and resilient business systems. Serve as the senior technical escalation point for Core Applications, bringing clarity to complex issues, guiding solution decisions, and helping the team move quickly through ambiguity. Drive complex cross-functional initiatives from early discovery through implementation, balancing business priorities, technical constraints, security requirements, and user experience considerations along the way. Design and deliver automations, integrations, and custom solutions that streamline workflows, reduce manual effort, and improve how business processes operate at scale. Build a strong understanding of how enterprise systems connect across the broader technology landscape and use that perspective to identify simplification opportunities, reduce operational friction, and improve end-to-end effectiveness. Establish and evolve technical standards, support models, and governance practices that improve consistency, maintainability, and reliability across the Core Applications environment. Act as a player-coach for the team by mentoring engineers and administrators, sharing technical context, and staying hands-on in design, troubleshooting, and execution where needed. Bring experience with enterprise AI and automation to identify and implement practical use cases within Core Applications that improve productivity, reduce manual work, and create measurable business value. Help introduce enterprise AI capabilities responsibly by reinforcing reusable patterns, sound governance, and adoption practices that make new solutions supportable and safe to scale.
