  • Own the Production Readiness & Resilience Test Engineering practice across all technology segments, ensuring readiness, resiliency, and evidence-based delivery
  • Set clear priorities, expectations, and standards across teams while balancing immediate delivery needs with long-term sustainability
  • Build leadership bench strength, succession plans, and strong talent development practices across a large executive organization

  • Simplify engagement models and remove ambiguity around ownership, intake, escalation paths, and decision rights
  • Improve transparency for the U.S. CIO and leadership team around in-flight work, timelines, dependencies, costs, and delivery outcomes
  • Ensure infrastructure delivery meets global systemically important bank (GSIB) requirements, including regulatory compliance, audit readiness, security, and operational resiliency

  • Strong understanding of GSIB banking environments, including U.S. regulatory expectations, audit processes, operational controls, and resiliency requirements
  • Test engineering and practice leadership and strategy a plus
  • Proven track record of being an accountable owner for outcomes, not just coordination or oversight
  • Experience modernizing delivery models through automation, simplification, and platform standardization
  • Ability to operate effectively at both strategic and operational levels under sustained delivery pressure
