Engineering Lead

FULL TIME

September 17, 2024

Ko mātou tēnei | This is Us
Here at BNZ, it's about more than just banking. We work together in an agile, energising environment to create innovative solutions through our promise 'If you can imagine a better future, let's find a way'.
Our Engineering Excellence tīma (team) have the opportunity for an Engineering Lead to work with the teams on our Core Ledger Replacement (CLR) programme of mahi (work).
This is a fantastic engineering leadership tūranga (role), without direct reports, where you'll be able to influence the technology vision and roadmap for the product tīma, and mentor our engineers by sharing your experience. To top it off, you'll have exposure to a broad set of engineering problems to solve and the chance to play with / ako (learn) new technologies.
Mō te Tūranga | About the Role
We sat down with our Engineering Managers (who you'd report to), and they let us know the following about the tūranga.
What are some day-to-day tasks the successful candidate in this tūranga will complete?

You will work with delivery leads on planning delivery milestones by providing high level estimates and highlighting any risks or blockers.
You will refine epics ahead of quarterly planning and delegate them appropriately based on priority.
You will provide input to requirements, solutions to ensure we're simplifying our technology stack and are building to our target state architecture.
You will enable developers, testers, business analysts, solution architects to resolve technical problems and risks in a sustainable, scalable manner.
You will champion good Engineering Standards and Practices in the Programme and ensure your delivery tīma follow them.
You will tautoko (support), coach and acknowledge engineers with specific feedback, helping them to advance their careers.
You will collaborate with the tāngata (people) leaders to continuously improve team's performance.

What kind of mahi will the successful candidate be working on for the next 12 months?

You will be closely working with one or more teams on CLR, helping with them with all aspects of development.
You will have strong API development skills (Java / Spring Boot). Experience with Kafka and Jenkins is a bonus.
You will have experience in setting up and working with the offshore capability tīma.

What is the most challenging thing about this opportunity?
The biggest challenge you will face will be how to influence and grow teams (onshore and offshore) to solve problems and provide scalable solutions themselves, rather than implementing one-off fixes.
What will success look like for the successful candidate in this tūranga?
You will be seen as a key influencer, have strong relationships with your leadership triad, built credibility with your buddy teams, and be able to influence them towards delivering sustainable, technical solutions. In addition, you will collaborate with other Engineering Leads via the Engineering Centre of Excellence to solve wider business problems within BNZ.
What attributes will this tangata (person) have to be successful?

Collaborate with multiple teams (onshore and offshore) to deliver desired outcomes and connect tāngata.
Adapts to challenges.
Eagerness to learn.
Values building strong relationships.
Listens to others.
Influence based on data points, rather than be the most vocal in the room.
Switch between macro and micro views / grasp the overall picture and be able to examine the details when needed.
Previously worked as a Senior Engineer, Technical Lead, Principal Engineer.
