## Posting metadata

- Seniority level: Executive
- Employment type: Full-time
- Job function: Engineering and Information Technology
- Industries: Software Development

## Direct-match strengths

Cloud-native SaaS, architecture, distributed systems, CI/CD, quality automation, engineering leadership, AI-assisted development, and release modernization.

## Hard or material gaps

Hard location conflict: the role is hybrid in Atlanta. It also requires a proven manager-of-managers record for a 50–60-person R&D organization through seven direct managers; Keith's direct line-management evidence is smaller, while his 180+ AWS communities were enablement organizations rather than a comparable reporting structure.

## Evidence map

1. Cloud-native SaaS and enterprise software delivery — direct.
2. CI/CD, quality, deployment automation, and release practices — direct.
3. AI-assisted development — direct Codex and code-generation evidence.
4. Engineering organization leadership — direct up to 25-person teams and global technical communities totaling 180+.
5. Direct manager-of-managers ownership of 50–60 staff through seven managers — unsupported required scale.
6. Hybrid Atlanta location — hard conflict.

## Full normalized job description

Vice President of Software Engineering (SaaS)
Expert Technical Solutions has an outstanding opportunity for a Vice President of Software Engineering with a fast-growing software company in Atlanta, GA.
This is a Direct Hire, hybrid opportunity offering a competitive salary, excellent benefits, and executive growth opportunities!
You will serve as the organizational leader for the full R&D department, overseeing a team of 50–60 resources through a direct management tier of 7. In this role, you will step away from daily coding and code reviews to focus entirely on organizational scaling, culture, release strategy, and the optimization of a multi-track SaaS and enterprise delivery system.
Duties and Responsibilities:
Serve as the executive leader over the entire engineering organization, driving department structure, culture, and high-velocity delivery.
Spearhead the strategic transition of cloud products from traditional release cadences to a high-frequency, continuous deployment model.
Oversee the ongoing support of periodic, bundled software releases for enterprise, self-managed clients.
Champion the adoption and integration of AI automation and AI-assisted development tools across the full R&D lifecycle to accelerate throughput.
Partner closely with Product, Architecture, and DevOps peers to translate high-level business strategy into reliable software execution.
Transform the quality engineering department by shifting to an automation-first testing model built directly into the CI/CD pipeline.
Design team topologies and resource allocation strategies to support rapid organizational scale.
Skills:
Extensive experience leading engineering efforts within a high-growth, cloud-native SaaS environment
Proven track record as a "manager of managers," running multi-layered organizations of 50+ total resources
Strong technical background in software engineering, architecture, or distributed systems (though this is a non-hands-on role)
Demonstrated experience modernizing deployment models, utilizing DORA metrics, and scaling CI/CD pipelines
Familiarity with Microsoft technology stacks is preferred, but not required
