Director, Software Development
As Director of Software Development at Verra Mobility, you will lead a transformative initiative to consolidate core platforms into scalable, secure, and reusable capabilities. This role involves overseeing end-to-end delivery outcomes, from planning through build, test, release, and production stability, while enabling high-performing technical teams to deliver predictably. You will serve as a critical link across engineering, product, QA, DevOps, security, and operations, establishing operating standards and measurable quality metrics to enhance speed without compromising reliability.
Key responsibilities include driving a multi-year roadmap to consolidate legacy and modern systems into standardized platform services, reducing duplication, and accelerating delivery across product lines. You will own predictable, high-quality delivery across multiple squads, including roadmap commitments, release readiness, operational stability, and technical leadership. Additionally, you will implement a consistent delivery rhythm, standardize CI/CD pipelines, and ensure platforms meet expectations for availability, reliability, performance, security, and serviceability.
The ideal candidate will possess a bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience, with ten or more years in software engineering delivering modern enterprise systems. Experience with platform and product ecosystems is preferred. A minimum of five years leading multiple teams or squads through managers and/or technical leads is required. Demonstrated success in leading platform transformation and consolidation across legacy and modern technology, including decommissioning systems and reducing complexity, is essential. Experience operating at scale with Agile and Lean delivery practices and measurable flow and quality improvements is also desired.
