JOB DESCRIPTION SUMMARY

The Director, Web Platform Engineering leads Greystar's web platform team and owns technical direction for greystar.com and the broader Sitecore-based web ecosystem, a multi-year platform commitment whose primary job is turning visitors into leases, and happy residents! You partner
with the product lead, who owns the roadmap and business direction, as a technical peer, a genuine technical counterpart to product on where the platform goes next.
This is a leader-doer role for a small but mighty strong team. You'll bring deep, hands-on expertise in Sitecore AI, while staying solutions-focused rather than platform-focused. Sitecore is the backbone of how we deliver, not the default answer to every problem. You'll bring that same flexibility in how the platform approaches search and discovery, and build culture of shared documentation and knowledge so expertise lives with the team rather than any one person. You'll also invest directly in developing the engineers on your team and work across our global organization.
You'll set technical direction, stay hands-on, and hold yourself and the team to a standard of collaborative decision-making. As part of the Data, Digital, and AI (D2AI) organization, you'll coordinate with fellow D2AI teams (data platform, CI, AI engineering) on how the web platform connects to broader data and AI capabilities.
