Turn broad strategy into bounded engineering bets that can be shaped, staffed, and delivered.
Lead the first reusable cross-product platform capabilities that reduce friction across systems such as Somnoware, VirtuOx, Brightree, and adjacent DHP services.
Build and lead a lean, senior team in San Diego with a strong bias toward clarity, technical judgment, and practical delivery.
Work directly with Product Management and peer engineering leaders to reduce translation loss between business intent and implementation.
Help advance AI-native ways of working by using software agents and modern tooling in real delivery, not as a side experiment.
Requirements
The strongest candidates will be builder-leaders. This role is for someone who has operated at Director level but still has the technical depth and credibility of a Staff, Principal, or equivalent senior engineer. Candidates should bring:
10+ years of software engineering experience and 5+ years leading engineering teams in ambiguous, high-change environments.
Strong hands-on development experience in modern backend and platform systems, especially Java, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, and cloud-native service environments.
Real experience evolving existing platforms and product architectures, including decomposition of monoliths, scalability, resiliency, observability, and security.
The ability to contribute directly to architecture, design, prototyping, technical decomposition, and, where appropriate, implementation.
Demonstrable experience using tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, OpenAI, Gemini, or equivalent in real software delivery work, with a clear point of view on where these tools help and where stronger engineering judgment still matters.
The ability to speak credibly both as a builder and as a leader about how AI is changing software development.

Additional Information
Resmed is hiring a Director of Engineering, Platform Evolution to help lead the next phase of the Digital Health Platform. This role sits in an important gap between strategy and execution. Product direction is increasingly clear: reduce friction across the pathway from diagnostics through therapy start, improve handoffs across products and partners, and build more reusable platform capability across the portfolio. What is still underdefined is how that becomes concrete engineering work. The point of this role is to help make that real. This is not a maintenance role, and it is not a coordination-only role. It is a hands-on engineering leadership role for someone who can work through ambiguity, shape the first meaningful platform moves, and still engage directly in technical work when needed.
