NBCUniversal is seeking an experienced Software Engineering Manager to lead the Brand Engineering team, a pivotal role in shaping the digital infrastructure that powers some of the world’s most iconic film and television brands. You’ll lead a team of engineers and contractors, partner closely with stakeholders across film and television marketing, and drive execution of initiatives that support websites, apps, and other consumer-facing digital platforms. Key Responsibilities
Lead, mentor, and grow a team of engineers (FTEs and contractors), fostering collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement. Partner with internal stakeholders to align infrastructure capabilities with business needs. Own backlog prioritization, capacity planning, and delivery of planned and unplanned work. Oversee AWS infrastructure design, development, and operations using automation, infrastructure-as-code, and best practices. Guide modernization efforts including migration from EC2 to containerized platforms, infrastructure optimization, and deployment enablement. Champion privacy and security by design, embedding best practices and ensuring compliance with enterprise and industry standards. Ensure proactive monitoring, observability, and alerting using CloudWatch, Datadog, and related tools. Drive cost optimization initiatives and implement chargeback models for brand-aligned engineering effort. Promote high standards of engineering quality, including code reviews, automated testing practices, and documentation. Oversee adoption and operation of DevOps pipelines using GitHub Actions, Puppet, and related tooling. Collaborate cross-functionally with product, marketing, and enterprise technology teams to ensure business goals are achieved. Qualifications
Basic Requirements:
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience). Proven experience managing engineering teams in a cloud-first environment. Strong hands-on experience with AWS cloud infrastructure and deployment pipelines. Deep knowledge of Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, CloudFormation) and configuration management (Puppet). Experience with containers, Kubernetes, and migration from EC2 to containerized workloads. Familiarity with Drupal frameworks and CDN management (Akamai, Cloudflare). Experience with observability and security tooling (CloudWatch, Datadog, Wiz, Snyk). Ability to engage cross-functional stakeholders and drive strategic initiatives. Experience with agile delivery, backlog management, and capacity planning. Familiarity with security remediation workflows and compliance practices. Excellent communication, leadership, and organizational skills. Additional Requirements:
Fully Remote: This position has been designated as fully remote, meaning that the position is expected to contribute from a non-NBCUniversal worksite, most commonly an employee’s residence.
