• Plan and execute comprehensive release governance, including risk assessments, milestone tracking, and rigorous production readiness reviews.
• Deliver strategic technical advice to senior management on long-term systems planning, hardware/software adoption, and scalability strategies.
• Conduct in-depth research on emerging technologies to bolster security measures, optimize operations, and accelerate deployment pipelines.
• Lead and mentor local and offshore teams, providing technical support to sustain high operational effectiveness and knowledge transfer.
• Develop and enforce robust policies for application development quality, security protocols, and system administration standards.
• Collaborate closely with business units and technology vendors to deploy tailored solutions that drive organizational success.
• Proactively identify and implement operational improvements leveraging advanced technologies like containerization, microservices, and automation tools.
• Handle additional duties as needed to advance Robert Half's technology objectives and support cross-functional initiatives.

• Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), mobile development frameworks, and on-premise infrastructure.
• Demonstrated leadership in guiding distributed teams and delivering strategic technical recommendations.
• Strong background in security practices, compliance standards (e.g., SOC 2, GDPR), and risk assessment methodologies.
• Excellent research skills for evaluating emerging technologies like serverless computing, edge computing, and low-code platforms.
