Position OverviewAt PNC, our people are our greatest differentiator and competitive advantage in the markets we serve. We are all united in delivering the best experience for our customers. We work together each day to foster an inclusive workplace culture where all of our employees feel respected, valued and have an opportunity to contribute to the company's success.
As the Director of Enterprise Pipeline Engineering & Automation within PNC's CTO organization, you will be based in Pittsburgh, PA, Birmingham, AL, Strongsville or Cleveland, OH, Dallas, TX, or Phoenix, AZ. This role will play a critical leadership position in transforming the CTO organization from a predominantly infrastructure focused model into a software driven, automated execution organization, enabling faster, safer, and more repeatable paths to production.
This role serves as a software and automation counterpart within the CTO organization, responsible for bringing strong software engineering, architectural rigor, and pipeline automation into enterprise infrastructure delivery. The Director will architect and build the software systems, automation frameworks, and engineering patterns that allow infrastructure to be provisioned, configured, validated, and handed off seamlessly once hardware is deployed in the data center.
This leader will not replace existing infrastructure teams, but will enable and elevate them-creating the pipelines, abstractions, and automation capabilities that groups such as platform, operations, and runtime teams can consume and scale.
Key Responsibilities Include:
Strategy & Transformation Leadership
Directs enterprise strategies, initiatives, policies, and programs for pipeline engineering, infrastructure automation, and software driven delivery across the CTO organization.
Acts as a key transformation leader in the evolution from infrastructure centric execution to software first automation, influencing how the organization designs, builds, and operates technology.
Defines the enterprise vision for "path to production", including standards, architectural patterns, controls, and automation required to move from installed hardware to production ready platforms.
Architecture & Engineering
Architects and designs enterprise scale software platforms, automation frameworks, and pipelines that support infrastructure creation, configuration, validation, and lifecycle management.
Leads the adoption of best practices in software architecture, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, configuration management, testing automation, and system integration.
Partners with architecture, security, risk, and operations teams to ensure automation solutions are secure, resilient, compliant, and production ready.
Delivery & Execution
Works closely with delivery and development teams to turn architectural vision into execution through reusable services, tooling, and automation patterns.
Establishes clear engineering standards and reference implementations for teams building or consuming enterprise pipelines.
Drives measurable improvements in time to provision, deployment reliability, and operational stability through automation.
Leadership & Talent Development
Directs, motivates, develops, and oversees the performance of management and senior engineering staff.
Builds a high performing organization blending software engineers, automation engineers, and infrastructure domain experts.
Coaches leaders and engineers to think and operate as software product teams, not ad hoc project teams.
Stakeholder & Vendor Engagement
Communicates with executive leadership, vendors, and suppliers to align on technology direction, tooling strategy, and platform capabilities.
Serves as a trusted partner across CTO, infrastructure, and platform organizations-driving alignment without duplicating or displacing existing ownership.
Preferred Skills and Experience Include:
Software Engineering & Architecture
Infrastructure Automation & Platform Engineering
CI/CD & Pipeline Engineering
Information Security & Risk Alignment
IT Architecture & Systems Integration
Proven leadership over large scale, cross enterprise initiatives
