Tech Leadership Assignment: Software Architecture lead

We are responsible for setting the tone for how our software architecture is set up. This spans many concerns, such as performance and scalability, security and privacy, as well as reliability and overall supportability.


Expectations / Description

Key Results/Outcomes

This enablement lead is responsible for those fulfilling the following assignments (Tech Leadership domain):

  • {{Back-end architect}}
  • {{Front-end architect}}

ENGAGEMENT:

  • The people taking on the assignments listed above, agree or strongly agree to the following statements:
    • I know how I’m being evaluated on these roles.
    • I receive actionable (meaning timely, frequent, specific, and observation-based) constructive feedback on my performance within the roles identified above.
    • I receive actionable (meaning timely, frequent, specific, and observation-based) recognition (public or private) on my performance within the roles identified above.
    • I believe I have the tools to meet or exceed the outcomes listed within the roles in question.
    • I believe I have the processes and environment to meet or exceed the outcomes listed within the roles in question.
    • I believe we are continuously improving in how we go about taking on these roles.
    • Note: This SHOULD have a direct impact on the NPS score of engineers (where they select 8+ on a 10-point scale to the question; “I’d recommend a friend come to work here”). However, given that full engagement is more inclusive than their primary roles, it doesn’t feel right to have that as a part of the measure of enablement leads.

Things you might deliver/do

  • Though you won't be exclusively responsible for engineers having the best tools and processes to do their best work, you will be heavily relied upon to ensure this is happening.
  • You'll search for the “multiplicative effect”: impact multiplied by the number of people
  • You'll be proactive by identifying and coordinate meeting common needs across the engineering team such as standards and conventions, documentation, etc.
  • You'll be reactive by helping coordinate solutions to problems you hear about from the team, such as on-call support being frustrating, or waiting on reviews taking too long.
  • You'll contribute to continually iterating on and improving the Engineer Growth Framework
