The Development Lead is a senior, hands-on technical leader who drives technical direction, sprint execution, and delivery outcomes within an Agile delivery pod. This role owns technical solution design, delivery predictability, code quality, and release readiness, ensuring solutions align with enterprise architecture, engineering standards, and business objectives.

The Development Lead provides day to day technical leadership through delivery coordination, coaching, and hands on contribution. The Development Lead is the primary execution authority within approved architectural guardrails, escalating design decisions that fall outside defined patterns, and ensuring operational learnings are fed back into the backlog.

Uphold and enforce engineering standards for coding, testing, documentation, security, observability, and responsible AI practices within the pod.
Champion high quality peer code reviews, including AI generated code, focusing on maintainability, performance, reliability, and adherence to approved patterns.
Lead and support complex or high risk feature implementations, balancing delivery timelines with technical quality and operational risk.
Own unit testing strategy, test automation, and AI evaluation coverage to ensure quality gates are consistently met and defects are prevented.
Enhance CI/CD pipeline efficiency, build automation, and AI assisted development workflows to improve deployment frequency and developer productivity.
Partner with Product Owners, QA, Designers, and Scrum Masters to ensure clarity, feasibility, testability, and timely decision-making on scope changes.
Provide technical ownership for production issues; lead triage, investigation, mitigation, and service restoration, and coordinate with other technical teams when escalation or cross-team support is required.
Lead root cause analysis (RCA) for pod owned incidents/defects and drive corrective and preventive actions; ensure learnings are translated into backlog items and completed.
Establish and maintain clear, accurate, and up to date technical and prompt documentation to support maintainability, onboarding, and operational support.
Monitor and improve delivery and quality metrics such as defect rates, PR lead time, deployment frequency, rollback frequency, and reliability indicators; leverage data to drive improvement actions.
Provide day to day technical leadership and mentoring through pairing, feedback, and guidance; foster a culture of craftsmanship, accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
Design, develop, modify, integrate, maintain and troubleshoot software applications and services.
Write, read, review, test, debug and correct software code for new features and enhancements to existing systems.
Analyse technical requirements, dependencies and system interactions, and recommend modifications or implementation approaches.
Perform peer code and pull-request reviews, providing feedback on correctness, maintainability, performance, reliability, security and adherence to standards.
