Do you have a track record of leading through managers and developing high-performing engineering teams? Do you enjoy driving enterprise integration and architecture strategy? Are you excited by the opportunity to modernize a company's core Boomi, API, and data-integration platforms while championing the responsible adoption of AI-assisted development? If so, then we’d like you to join our dedicated team as Director of IT Engineering.
About the Role:
As a key leader within the Hajoca Information Technology organization, the Director of IT Engineering reports to Hajoca's Head of Information Technology and leads the engineering function responsible for the company's core business applications and system integrations. This director-level role leads through its managers while owning enterprise and integration architecture directly.
Accountable for enterprise integration on the Boomi platform, associated API gateway management, Azure integration architecture, ETL and data-movement pipelines, and the CRM platform, the Director also governs the company's outsourced development and managed-services partnerships. A specific mandate of the role is to drive the responsible adoption of AI-assisted software development (for example, LLM coding assistants such as Claude Code and ChatGPT) to raise engineering productivity and quality. This role partners closely with the Data & Analytics, Service & Support, Business Process Consulting, ERP, and Financial Systems teams, as well as the company's field technology, transformation, and value-realization functions, to deliver resilient, well-architected capabilities that advance Hajoca's technology roadmap.
As Director, you will:
Lead, hire, mentor, grow, and develop leaders in the engineering function, building a strong bench of managers, architects, engineers, and developers who deliver reliable solutions to the business.
Set clear performance expectations and goals for teammates and conduct regular performance evaluations to assess progress and provide feedback.
Own delivery across Hajoca's core platforms: the Boomi integration platform and associated API gateway management, the Azure integration architecture, ETL and data-movement pipelines, and the CRM platform.
Own enterprise and integration architecture and technical standards across the application estate, setting integration patterns, data-architecture standards, and key technical decisions, and maintaining a forward integration roadmap.
Drive the responsible adoption of AI-assisted software development, in conjunction with the AI Enablement Lead, establishing the standards, guardrails, tooling, and training for LLM coding assistants (i.e., Claude Code and ChatGPT) to raise engineering throughput and quality while managing security and quality risk.
Govern the outsourced development and managed-services engagements – overseeing scope, quality, and cost, and reducing contractor and key-person concentration risk.
Manage the full lifecycle of engineering initiatives – working with business stakeholders to identify needs, assess business-process impact, plan and scope the work, and deliver phased, well-tested implementations on committed timelines.
Strengthen team resilience by eliminating single-owner dependencies through cross-training, documentation, and succession planning across the integration and ETL functions.
Partner across the IT organization – with Data & Analytics, Service & Support, Business Process Consulting, ERP, and Financial Systems – to coordinate shared platforms, dependencies, and delivery.
Own talent, budget, and vendor-sourcing decisions for the function, and contribute engineering input to the technology roadmap, standards, governance, and performance metrics.
Establish and Maintain Key Partnerships:
Beyond core IT functions, the Director also partners closely with several teams that connect technology to the field and to measurable value such as:
Field Technology Group (FTG): FTG builds close to the field, working…
