If you re looking for a large scope and impact, this role is for you. We re looking for someone who will lead multiple services such as search and filter, audit logs, and the UI platform. Your work will enable developers to build on top of the Konnect Platform with speed and agility.

Apply systems thinking by looking beyond your product area for opportunities to improve overall cohesion and usability.
- Champion customers: Take time to understand our customers, their jobs-to-be-done, and infuse this understanding into your work and that of others. Identify and make a compelling case for improving existing areas of our product to better meet the needs of our customers.
- Drive alignment: Solicit diverse perspectives, early and often, to strengthen your work. Communicate context, including customer data, business impact, trade-offs, and rationale, to generate alignment and make forward progress.
