You will direct and execute the strategy for front-end engineering, API development and integration, and test automation on our Microsoft-based stack (C#/.NET, React, and Azure), while making AI-enabled development and testing the default way our teams work. Just as important, you will grow the leaders and engineers who make it happen. This role suits a leader who has driven both software and quality engineering forward, knows OneStream and the CPM/EPM space, stays close to the technical decisions, and is energized by building people.

• Stays close to the code, architecture, and test strategy, and can credibly engage engineers on technical decisions.
• Proven record of driving both software engineering and quality engineering forward, with measurable gains in delivery, quality, and release confidence.
• Strong technical skills in the Microsoft stack: C#/.NET, React/TypeScript, and Azure (cloud services, DevOps, and CI/CD).
• Deep front-end expertise: React, TypeScript, component architecture, performance, and accessibility.
• Proven track record designing and delivering APIs and integrations for enterprise SaaS, including versioning, security, and backward compatibility.
• Strong test automation and quality engineering background across UI, API, and integration layers, with CI/CD quality gates.
• Demonstrated success implementing AI-enabled development and testing practices within engineering teams or products.
• Experience building and growing high-performing leaders and teams, including hiring, coaching, and succession planning.
• Strong stakeholder management; able to align executives and teams on strategy, trade-offs, and sequencing.

• Experience unifying development and QE organizations, or leading both disciplines.
• Prior OneStream experience, with CPM/EPM or financial platform experience.
• Experience with enterprise analytics and data-intensive applications, including SQL Server and OLAP or multi-dimensional processing.
• Experience in regulated or finance-focused environments (SOX, SOC 2, FedRAMP, GDPR).
• Familiarity with distributed systems, cloud platforms, and high-availability, global-scale operations.
• Experience leading distributed teams across time zones.
• Azure certifications (for example AZ-204, AZ-305, or DevOps Engineer Expert).

• Direct the strategy for front-end, API/Integration, and quality engineering, aligned to business outcomes and partnered closely with Product, Architecture, Security, and CloudOps.
• Lead development and QE as one organization, embedding quality into design, development, and release, and delivering predictably across multiple teams with clear priorities, measurable outcomes, and honest communication of risk.
• Stay hands-on in architecture and design reviews, code and test reviews, and complex debugging, while balancing speed and stability and managing technical debt and modernization as part of the roadmap.

• Own the architecture, standards, and roadmap for OneStream’s React-based browser experiences, including performance, accessibility, design systems, and secure client-side design, in partnership with UX and Product.
• Drive integration capabilities that connect OneStream to customer, partner, and ecosystem systems, including REST-based and event-driven patterns.
• Build APIs and services on C#/.NET and Azure, establishing API-first development and contract testing so teams can build in parallel with confidence.

• Define the quality framework: test strategy, coverage targets, release criteria, and metrics such as escaped defects, flakiness, and cycle time.
• Lead automation across UI, API, integration, performance, and security layers, with quality gates built into CI/CD and testing shifted left.
• Invest in test infrastructure, environments, and data, and partner with Support and Customer Success to turn customer-found issues into prevention.

• Drive adoption of AI-assisted development, code review, and test generation across engineering and QE, and measure the impact on productivity and quality.
• Apply AI to testing, including test case generation, self-healing automation, defect triage, and risk-based test selection.
• Establish responsible AI practices covering security, governance, data privacy, and human review, and partner with data and AI teams to integrate models and intelligent workflows into the platform.

• Lead, coach, and grow Engineering Directors, Managers, QE leaders, and Staff+ engineers, building a bench with clear succession plans.
• Own talent strategy: hiring, onboarding, retention, performance management, and technical and leadership career paths for engineers and QE specialists.
• Build a culture of ownership, high trust, inclusion, and continuous improvement, and upskill the organization on modern practices, including AI tools.

• Guide architecture and engineering standards across C#/.NET, React/TypeScript, SQL Server, and Azure, supporting CI/CD and DevOps practices and ensuring performance, scalability, security, and observability.
• Partner with SRE/CloudOps on reliability, incident response, and runbooks, and with Security to build compliance (SOX, SOC 2, GDPR) into the secure SDLC.
• Communicate roadmap status, risks, and technical strategy clearly to executives and stakeholders.
