Overview:
In this position, you will serve as a team leader, problem solver, mentor, and expert software engineer. You will apply the technical experience you have gained in software development and operations to design, develop, and deliver highly engineered, complex technical products. Specifically, you will focus on the modernization of our existing sales tax solution while supporting the existing system. You will oversee a small team working on these products and will contribute as a member of the team as well. You will not be responsible for HR management of your team, instead you’ll focus on the technical aspects of your team’s growth and delivery.
Our Flexible Future model offers a healthy mix of working in person and remotely, strengthening key elements of the Chick-fil-A culture by fostering collaboration and community.
Responsibilities:
- Own the solution architecture decisions for your team’s product
- Lead delivery and operations of the team’s product, including both individual contribution and support as well as delegated tasks and support to your team’s engineers. We desire our lead engineers to be both leads and engineers, spending about half of their time on leading others and half contributing engineering work themselves.

- Interview, select, onboard, and oversee contract engineers
- Guide engineering team in adoption of Chick-fil-A software engineering standards

- Understand specific business processes and requirements and translate them to software functional requirements
Note – Working in a DevOps model, this opportunity includes both building and running solutions that could require off hours support. This support is shared amongst the team members to cover weekends and weeknights. The goal is to design for failure and, using cloud-native infrastructure patterns, automate responses to possible issues so they can be worked during normal hours.
