• Lead architecture discussions and technical decisions, defining and enforcing guardrails, standards, and reference patterns across teams. • Mentor senior engineers and unblock complex technical challenges. • Break large initiatives into technically coherent, scalable solutions. • Balance short-term delivery with long-term system health. • Drive a mobile-first, responsive approach that delivers a high-quality experience across devices. • Set coding standards and best practices by example—through code reviews, RFCs, and shared patterns. • Help define testing strategies (unit, integration, E2E) that protect quality without slowing teams down. • Act as the go-to engineer for complex frontend and backend challenges. • Work across multiple initiatives at once, prioritizing the work that delivers the most value. • Partner closely with product, design, and engineers to ship meaningful features. • Balance short-term wins with long-term health—knowing when to refactor and when to move fast. • Take full ownership of outcomes, not just tickets.

• Lead full stack development for the Digital Services team, performing detailed systems analysis and implementation of high performing software solutions that are efficient and cost effective, supporting Wellmark’s business and Technology applications. • Lead system development and guides the team in the design, development, code testing and debugging necessary to ensure successful completion or resolution of issues while focusing on utilization of emerging technologies. • Orchestrate cross-functional end-to-end execution across diverse platforms, all meticulously aligned with Wellmark's SDLC standards and the structured SAFe methodology in order to culminate the making of these advancements accessible and beneficial to all Information Product teams and foster a unified and elevated approach to development and delivery. • Work closely with UX/UI designers, product managers, Architects and DevOps engineers to create responsive, interactive, and high performing applications by delivering high quality code that ensures a seamless user experience across multiple devices. • Develop and optimize web pages for maximum speed, accessibility and scalability. • Develop and optimize backend architecture ensuring scalability, performance and security. • Write clean, maintainable and efficient code, adhering to best practices and Wellmark engineering standards. • Ensure mobile responsiveness of applications. • Ensure analysis of defects to find root cause and guide others in the identification of potential improvement opportunities. • Provide production support of applications including root cause analysis and break-fix resolution. • Use data and cost measures (AWS, infrastructure, labor, etc.) to influence timely decisions, build consensus, and take actions to successfully deliver project or production support objectives and support benefits realization. • Identify known issues, impacts to project or production outcomes if not resolved and escalate as necessary. • Contribute to a collaborative agile environment, including PI Planning, iteration planning, estimation, demos and retrospectives.

• Design and architect solutions that work interactively. • Provide documentation of source codes, defining standards and improve them, APIs, flow diagrams, reviewing code requests. • Build and deliver solutions that meet/exceed customer/stakeholder expectations. • Proactively suggest options for solutions that make the feature easy to use and improve customer experience. • Drive requirements discussions based on value delivered to customer. • Participate and contribute to reviewing other team members unit tests. • Lead design discussions and planning. • Mentor Software Engineer team members in best practices, coding standards, assist in software design, provide training.

• Lead a team building the inner dev loop. Own the end-to-end experience from laptop-in-box to first pull request: workstation imaging and configuration, privilege and access workflows, enterprise connectivity, developer tooling, and the AI-powered development environment that ties it all together. • Turn "weeks to onboard" into "ready in an hour." The benchmark is real: a developer receives their machine, opens it, and is writing code for their team within their first hour. Your team designs and builds the systems that make that possible at enterprise scale. • Make agentic development tools a first-class citizen. AI coding tools aren't a plugin someone installs later—they're part of the standard environment your team ships. You also ensure developers actually know how to use them well: the workflows, the review patterns, the practices that separate real productivity gains from novelty. • Lead by building. This is not a program management role. You write code, review code, and architect solutions alongside your team. Your credibility comes from what you ship. • Engage deeply with program teams. Your team's work only succeeds if it fits how real engineering teams operate. You stay connected to 3–5 active programs, understand their constraints, and bring those lessons back to improve what you're building. • Drive measurable impact. Success shows up in the metrics: onboarding time collapses, developer satisfaction improves, AI tool adoption climbs, and teams spend less time wrestling with their environment and more time delivering mission software. • Stay ahead of the curve. Continuously evaluate emerging tools and practices—in workstation management, developer environments, and agentic development—and incorporate what's worth adopting into the enterprise standard.
