Senior Director, Agentic Engineering

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by We’re looking for a Senior Director, Agentic Engineering to build and lead the platform, capabilities, and operating model that enable Lightspeed’s Product & Technology teams to work effectively with AI agents across the full product development lifecycle. Reporting to the SVP, Engineering, this is a foundational leadership role with company-wide impact.

You will turn rapidly evolving agentic technology into secure, reliable, and reusable capabilities that help teams discover, design, build, test, ship, and operate better products faster. Success will be measured not by experimentation alone, but by adoption and sustained improvements in product quality, engineering velocity, developer experience, and business outcomes.

Please note this role is based in the United States. What you’ll be doing Define the multi-year vision, strategy, and roadmap for agentic engineering at Lightspeed, translating business and product priorities into a platform investment plan. Build and lead the teams responsible for shared agentic platform capabilities, including reusable agents, workflow orchestration, context and knowledge access, tool integrations, evaluation, observability, and governance.

Create an extensible platform and paved-road experience that allows Product, Design, Engineering, Quality, and Operations teams to adopt agentic workflows without rebuilding core capabilities independently. Partner with Retail, Hospitality, Payments, and platform leaders on highest-value product development use cases, launch them with early teams, and scale proven patterns across Lightspeed.
