Skills
Job Description
Turn engineering insight into decisions that improve performance and impact.
As Director, Engineering Business Operations, you will strengthen how Resmed’s Engineering organization sets priorities, measures performance, and turns strategy into action. Partnering with the VP of Engineering, Provider Solutions and the Engineering Leadership Team, you will connect engineering performance, organizational health, investment, and business outcomes.
Your key deliverables will include an enterprise Engineering KPI framework, executive dashboards, engineering excellence initiatives, organizational health plans, and an operating rhythm that creates clarity and accountability.
Sitting at the intersection of Engineering, Finance, Product, Strategy, and HR, this is not a traditional reporting or program management position. You will apply independent judgment, challenge assumptions, and translate complex information into recommendations that help leaders direct resources toward the highest-value opportunities.
What You’ll Do
Define and own Engineering KPIs across delivery, quality, reliability, productivity, efficiency, organizational health, and investment.
Build executive dashboards that reveal performance trends, emerging risks, improvement opportunities, and progress against business outcomes.
Establish consistent measurement definitions, data sources, and practices across engineering organizations.
Analyze performance patterns, identify root causes of inefficiency, and translate findings into clear recommendations and measurable improvement targets.
Lead cross-organizational engineering excellence initiatives that improve software delivery, developer productivity, quality, reliability, and operational maturity.
Create frameworks for assessing engineering maturity and benchmarking performance and practices internally and externally.
Establish an organizational health framework covering structure, capabilities, leadership capacity, and workforce sustainability.
Partner with Engineering leadership and HR to identify capability gaps, structural barriers, and future organizational needs aligned with product and business strategy.
Develop prioritized organizational improvement plans with clear investment requirements, measurable outcomes, and mechanisms for assessing the effectiveness of change.
Partner with Finance, HR, and Product on annual planning, budgeting, forecasting, and strategic workforce planning.
Connect engineering investment, headcount, capacity, and cost with delivery performance and broader business outcomes.
Evaluate resource allocation, organizational structure, location strategy, insourcing, outsourcing, and investment trade-offs to support leadership decisions.
Translate Engineering strategy into measurable objectives, initiatives, and execution plans, driving priority work from concept through completion.
Coordinate complex initiatives across engineering organizations, products, and functions while addressing barriers and competing priorities.
Design and lead the Engineering Leadership Team’s operating cadence, including business reviews, strategy reviews, KPI reviews, planning, governance, and performance assessments.
Provide leaders with timely, decision-ready insight into priorities, risks, accountability, and organizational performance.
What You Bring
10+ years of progressive experience in Engineering Operations, Business Operations, Strategy and Operations, Finance, or organizational transformation within a complex technology organization.
A bachelor’s degree and a graduate degree in engineering, business, or an equivalent field.
Experience leading large-scale or enterprise transformation from strategy through execution, delivering measurable improvements in performance, efficiency, or business outcomes.
Strong understanding of modern software engineering organizations and the ways engineering effectiveness can be measured.
Exceptional analytical capability, with the ability to turn complex datasets into clear, actionable executive insight.
Demonstrated success developing KPI frameworks, executive dashboards, and performance management processes.
Strong financial and business acumen, including experience with budgets, workforce planning, investment decisions, or business cases.
Success leading complex, cross-organizational initiatives without relying on direct authority.
Ability to move confidently between detailed analysis and executive-level strategic conversations.
Proven ability to influence senior leaders and navigate complex organizational dynamics.
What Sets You Apart
Independent judgment: You form a clear point of view, challenge assumptions constructively, and help leaders make stronger decisions.
Clarity in ambiguity: You bring structure to complex questions and give teams a practical path forward.
Outcome orientation: You define success in measurable terms and maintain focus on meaningful organizational and business results.
Constructive influence: You build alignment across competing priorities while keeping difficult decisions moving.
Personal accountability: You take ownership from initial insight through execution and sustained improvement.
