Senior Engineer, Technology Lead

New Street Research
Any Location, CT
Job Description
Role Overview

We’re hiring a Senior Engineer, Technology Lead – this is a senior role with a broad scope: technology roadmap, software and systems architecture, AI strategy and governance, vendor and partner management, security and compliance, and operational technology oversight.

What You Will Do

Develop and own a multi-year technology strategy and roadmap aligned with company growth and operational needs, lead architectural decisions across internal systems, establish development standards, code review processes, and deployment readiness criteria for AI-assisted work across the company.

Why It Might Be a Fit

This role may suit someone earlier in their senior career – curious, pragmatic about established systems, and energized by newer AI-driven approaches.

Requirements

  • 5-8 years of progressive experience that includes hands-on software engineering and a clear move toward technical leadership, architecture, or strategy
  • Demonstrated ability to build software – not just review it – even if production coding is no longer your day-to-day
  • Hands-on experience using modern AI tools in a real work context (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub, or similar), with a clear point of view on responsible AI adoption
  • Working familiarity with modern web stacks (React, Next.js, Node, Phyton, Postgres, cloud- services) and the Microsoft ecosystem (Power Platform, Dataverse, Azure, SharePoint), with the ability to evaluate code produced with them
  • Sound judgment on architecture, security, scalability, and operational resilience – able to spot fragility, technical debt, and risk in systems built by others (including AI-assisted output)
  • Comfortable balancing established proven technology with newer AI-driven approaches – and knowing when each is appropriate
  • Demonstrated experience evaluating, managing, or working closely with technology vendors and contractors
  • Experience establishing or operating within technical review, deployment, or release processes
  • Vendor management and contract negotiation skills, with the confidence to challenge vendor recommendations when the technical judgement calls for it
  • Excellent communication, with the ability to translate between technical and business audiences
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field or equivalent professional experience
  • Authorization to work in the U.S.

Benefits

  • Medical, Dental & Vision (FT)
  • 401k (Employer Matching)
  • 120 Hours of Paid Time Off
  • 40 Hours of Paid Sick Leave
  • Paid Holidays
