Manager, Development — AI Execution Platforms

What You Bring 

Required 

• 8+ years in software or platform engineering with 3+ years managing developers or leading delivery teams 
• Demonstrated success managing strong personalities and high-performing senior ICs — you can point to specific situations where you turned friction into productivity 
• Proven ability to deliver under aggressive, changing requirements and deadlines — comfortable renegotiating scope in real time and being the calm center when priorities shift mid-sprint 
• Hands-on AI development experience — you have personally built with AI coding tools (Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, or equivalent), you're comfortable leading a team that vibe-codes, and you can articulate concretely where that approach shines and where it fails (quality drift, security blind spots, unreviewable sprawl) and how you mitigate it 
• Experience governing a low-code / iPaaS platform at scale — intake, build standards, credential/connector governance, and the path from quick automation to a supportable production asset. This can come from Boomi, Retool, Power Automate, Power Platform, Workato, MuleSoft, or a comparable stack; ramping up on our specific tools (Boomi, Retool, Power Automate) is expected on the job, not assumed on day one 
• Hands-on credibility in a modern web stack — you can review a React/TypeScript or Python/FastAPI PR and give substantive feedback 
• Experience with cloud-native deployment on Azure (Container Apps, AKS, or equivalent), CI/CD (GitHub Actions or similar), and secrets/identity patterns 
• Track record of shipping and operating production software — including on-call, incident response, and post-incident improvement 

Preferred 

• Experience in a managed services, MSP, or IT operations delivery context 
• Direct hands-on experience with Boomi, Retool, or Power Automate specifically 
• Experience coordinating distributed teams across US and India time zones 

Nice to Have 

• Built or governed reusable AI agent tooling: skills, MCP integrations, multi-agent workflows, or internal prompt/spec libraries 
• Background in Okta/SAML or MSAL/OBO authentication patterns 
• Prior success standing up engineering standards in a fast-growing or newly formed team 

Certain states and localities require employers to post a reasonable estimate of salary range. A reasonable estimate of the current base pay range for this position is $150,000.00 to $170,000.00 annually. Actual salary will be based on a variety of factors, including shift, location, experience, skill set, performance, licensure and certification, and business needs. The range for this position in other geographic locations may differ. Certain positions may also be eligible for variable incentive compensation, such as bonuses or commissions, that is not included in the base pay.

We deliver end-to-end and emerging solutions to drive customer satisfaction and increase profitability and growth. Our world-class management consulting, delivery excellence, and engineering brilliance enable our success.

About the Role 

WWT's Managed Services practice builds and runs an internal application portfolio that powers real customer delivery — from nightly cutover orchestration platforms to pricing and P&L tooling — alongside a low-code and automation ecosystem built on Boomi, Retool, and Power Automate. You will lead the development function across both tracks: a pro-code team building AI-first on our modern Azure stack, and the low-code/integration builders automating workflows across the business. This role is as much about people as platforms: you'll manage a range of strong personalities, absorb aggressive and shifting requirements from executive stakeholders, and keep the team shipping through it. We work AI-native — most code here is written with AI assistance — and we need a leader who has lived that, understands where it accelerates and where it bites, and can build the guardrails to get the best of both. 

What You'll Do 

• Lead and grow a team of Execution Engineers, Execution Architects, and low-code builders delivering internal platforms and customer-facing operational tooling 
• Manage a variety of personalities — including strong, opinionated senior technologists — building trust, resolving friction directly, and channeling that energy into output rather than conflict 
• Operate under aggressive, frequently changing requirements and deadlines: re-scope on the fly, communicate trade-offs to leadership clearly, and protect the team from whiplash without hiding behind process 
• Own delivery across a portfolio of production applications built on React/TypeScript, FastAPI/PostgreSQL, and Azure Container Apps — roadmap sequencing, release quality, and incident accountability 
• Drive AI-assisted and "vibe coding" development practices (Claude Code, agentic workflows, spec-driven builds) as the default way the team works — with a clear-eyed view of the pros and cons, and standards for review, testing, and guardrails where the risks live 
• Own the low-code and integration portfolio on Boomi, Retool, and Power Automate: intake, prioritization, build standards, connector/credential governance, and the path from quick automation to supportable production asset 
• Enforce engineering standards — code quality gates, version pinning, TDD, conventional commits, security patterns (managed identity, Key Vault, HttpOnly JWT/SSO) — without slowing the team down 
• Run the operational side of development: sprint cadence, capacity planning across US and India contributors, hiring, and performance management 
• Represent the development function in executive reviews — status, risk, and roadmap — with crisp, decision-ready communication
