About Landmark
Landmark, a Halliburton company, builds the software and data platforms that help the global energy industry make better decisions. Our products span subsurface interpretation, well construction planning, reservoir simulation, and digital operations. These are tools used daily by engineers and scientists at the world’s largest energy companies. We are investing significantly in our engineering capability, and the Director of Developer Experience leads one of the most important bets in that investment: making every engineer at Landmark dramatically more productive.
 
About the Role
Landmark’s engineering organization runs hundreds of engineers across multiple product domains. The way those engineers develop software — from the moment they open their laptop to the moment a release is ready for production — has significant room to improve, and the opportunity to apply what modern tooling and AI-assisted development make possible is real and largely untapped. This role exists to lead that work. As Director of Developer Experience, you will own the full software delivery lifecycle across three interconnected dimensions: the local loop (the on-machine experience, including environment setup, local build and run performance, and cloud-based development environments), the inner loop (the code-to-pre-production journey, including CI/CD pipelines, branch and merge strategy, quality gates, and the organizational shift to trunk-based development and small, frequent increments), and the outer loop through release management (versioning, release pipeline automation, staging environments, release readiness criteria, and the process that produces a fully validated, deployment-ready artifact). The release-ready artifact is the handoff to SRE, who own the final production readiness check and the decision to push to production Responsibilities is to ensure that what arrives at that handoff is consistently complete, validated, and accompanied by everything SRE needs to make that call with confidence.  Responsible for leading a substantial team of engineers and developer advocates who build, operate, and consult on the systems and practices that make this possible. You will also own Landmark’s strategy for agentic coding: the adoption of AI coding agents and tools that go beyond autocomplete to meaningfully accelerate how engineers write, review, and reason about code. That means hardware strategy, software procurement, IT policy advocacy, and the organizational change management required to make these tools effective at scale.
 

Local Loop and Development Environment

Own the on-machine development experience for Landmark engineers: environment standardization, toolchain consistency, local build performance, and developer hardware strategy
Drive adoption of cloud-based development environments, including remote dev environments, dev containers, and cloud dev boxes, to eliminate environment drift and reduce time-to-productivity for new engineers and new codebases
Partner with IT to define and advocate for hardware procurement standards, software licensing policies, and security configurations that enable engineering velocity rather than constrain it
 
Inner Loop, Release Management, and SDLC Acceleration

•    Own the CI/CD platform and pipeline strategy across Landmark engineering: build speed, test coverage gates, artifact management, and deployment to staging and pre-production environments
•    Drive the organizational shift to trunk-based development and “develop small” practices, including short-lived branches, frequent integration, feature flags, and incremental delivery
•    Define and enforce inner loop quality standards — automated test coverage thresholds, code review practices, PR size norms, and merge readiness criteria — that make shipping fast and safe at the same time
•    Own release management: release pipeline automation, versioning strategy, staging environment management, release readiness criteria, and the process that produces a fully validated, production-ready artifact
•    Define the DX/SRE handoff: the content, format, and quality standard of the release-ready artifact that SRE receives, and partner with SRE continuously to improve the reliability and speed of that interface
 
Agentic Coding and AI-Enabled Development

•    Define and execute Landmark’s strategy for AI-assisted and agentic coding by identifying, evaluating, procuring, and deploying tools that materially accelerate how engineers work
•    Advocate within Halliburton IT and security for the policies and network and data access configurations that allow modern AI coding tools to operate effectively
•    Build the organizational enablement program: training, consulting support to product teams, measurement of adoption and impact, and feedback loops that improve the strategy over time
 
Organization Leadership

•    Lead a substantial team of engineers, developer advocates, and platform specialists by hiring, developing, and building the team to meet the demands of this mission
•    Build an embedded consulting and evangelism model where DX team members work alongside product engineering teams to drive adoption of better practices, rather than building tools and waiting for adoption to follow
•    Define and track developer productivity metrics, including DORA metrics, inner loop cycle time, environment setup time, CI pipeline speed, and agentic tool adoption, and drive measurable, sustained improvement
•    Represent developer experience priorities in executive planning, budget discussions, and cross-functional technology decisions
 

•    Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, or a related STEM discipline, or equivalent professional experience
•    12+ years of software engineering or engineering leadership experience, with demonstrated hands-on depth in software delivery practices
•    5+ years leading engineering organizations, with direct management of Engineering Managers or senior technical leads
•    Deep, practical expertise in CI/CD systems, pipeline architecture, and modern software delivery at scale
•    Demonstrated experience driving organizational change toward trunk-based development, continuous integration, or comparable delivery modernization
•    Strong executive communication skills, with the ability to translate engineering practice improvements into business outcomes and represent technical needs to the CTO and peer leadership
•    Track record of building and developing engineering talent, including hiring into and growing an existing team
 
Preferred
•    Direct experience building or leading a developer experience, platform engineering, or engineering productivity team
•    Hands-on experience with remote development environments, such as GitHub Codespaces, Gitpod, Daytona, DevPod, or cloud dev boxes, at organizational scale
•    Experience evaluating, procuring, and deploying AI-assisted development tools, including GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Cody, or agentic coding platforms, and driving their adoption across an engineering organization
•    Familiarity with DORA metrics and engineering productivity measurement frameworks, and a track record of moving them in the right direction
•    Experience working with enterprise IT and security functions to influence tooling policies, procurement processes, and access configurations on behalf of engineering velocity
•    Background in or strong familiarity with software delivery in large-scale enterprise software environments where product complexity and compliance requirements create friction
•    Experience designing and operating an engineering consulting or enablement model where teams influence adoption through embedded partnership rather than mandate
•    We welcome candidates from all backgrounds and encourage you to apply even if your experience does not match every item in the preferred list.
 
Why Landmark
•    This role exists because Landmark’s CTO has made developer experience a top organizational priority. You will have direct sponsorship, a real team, real budget, and the authority to make meaningful changes. The engineering organization wants this to succeed: the demand for better tooling, faster pipelines, and AI-enabled development comes from engineers themselves, and the leadership team is aligned behind it
•    We build small, high-ownership teams and invest in the quality of every person on them. Engineers here co-author the product strategy alongside product management and domain science: the art of the possible is an engineering contribution, not a function that sits upstream. The experiences we design ensure that customers remain in control of the decisions that matter, never passengers in their own workflows
•    You will work in a business where software is the product, alongside engineers solving technically demanding problems in a domain where your improvements have visible, measurable impact on their daily work. We offer competitive compensation including bonus and long-term incentive programs, and the scope to build something that lasts
