This job is with S&P Global, an inclusive employer and a member of myGwork - the largest global platform for the LGBTQ+ business community. Please do not contact the recruiter directly. About the Role: Grade Level (for internal use): 15 The Team: Enterprise Technology & Platforms delivers cross-enterprise technology products, services, and capabilities to S&P Global's organizations and employees worldwide. The Developer Experience and Product Enablement function will own and evolve the enterprise product and software development lifecycle toolchain - the agentic PDLC - bringing together platforms, governance, support, productivity insights, and AI-native product management and engineering capabilities. It spans the full path from discovery and customer insight through definition, design, build, release, and in-market measurement, treating product management and engineering as one connected system rather than two adjacent toolsets. The team will operate as an enterprise hub, partnering closely with divisional CTO and product organizations and embedded practitioners to preserve business context while creating a consistent, scalable experience for both builders and the product leaders who direct them. Responsibilities and Impact: Approximately 10,000 developers across S&P Global build software on a common toolchain, and the product managers, designers, and analysts who decide what gets built work alongside them on a second, largely disconnected one. This role owns both and joins them. That toolchain is critical infrastructure for product discovery, software delivery, engineering productivity, security, resilience, and AI-native development. The role will reduce fragmentation and duplication, close the handoff gaps between product intent and shipped software, strengthen governance and support, and make developer and product experience a measurable strategic capability. Set the enterprise Developer Experience and Product Enablement strategy, product vision, roadmap, operating model, and investment priorities in partnership with the CIO leadership team, divisional CTOs, divisional heads of product, and other senior technology and product leaders. Own the full lifecycle of enterprise software development platforms and tools, including source code management, code collaboration, CI/CD, build engineering, developer environments, code quality and scanning, cloud development infrastructure, and related integrations. Own the full lifecycle of enterprise product management platforms and tools, including customer and market research repositories, idea intake and opportunity assessment, roadmapping and portfolio planning, requirements and specification authoring, design and prototyping, work management and backlog tooling, experimentation and feature management, product analytics, and voice-of-customer and feedback aggregation. Connect the two halves into a single agentic PDLC, establishing the traceable thread from customer insight to opportunity, specification, design, commit, release, and in-market outcome, so that product intent, engineering work, and measured impact reconcile in one system of record rather than in status decks. Manage the toolchain as a coherent portfolio of enterprise products, with clear customer outcomes, service levels, adoption goals, cost transparency, platform health measures, and accountable product ownership. Build a trusted partnership model with divisional CTOs, heads of product, executive sponsors, and embedded divisional practitioners to align enterprise standards with business-specific product and engineering requirements. Lead the consolidation of fragmented tooling, resources, licenses, support processes, and automation across both the product and engineering estates, reducing duplication while managing transitions without disrupting delivery. Establish a scalable support and self-service ecosystem for developers and product teams, including developer and product portals, template and artifact libraries, knowledge management, onboarding, access and license management, AI-assisted triage, and expert escalation. Own advocacy and community across both disciplines, including communities of practice, technical and product evangelism, onboarding and enablement content, craft standards for specifications and discovery practice, change communications, and structured feedback loops that earn adoption rather than mandate it. Own the innersource ecosystem, applying open-source working practice to proprietary code so that shared libraries, contribution standards, maintainer stewardship, and IP guardrails make reuse across divisions the default rather than the exception. Define and govern the enterprise approach to AI-native and agentic product development and software engineering, including approved tools, guardrails, model and data access, reusable agent workflows spanning research synthesis, specification drafting, prototype generation, code generation, and release readiness, platform integrations, experimentation, and responsible adoption. Create an enterprise measurement system for product and developer productivity and experience, including DORA metrics, cycle time from idea to release, adoption and utilization measures, tool ROI, practitioner sentiment, friction mapping, product outcome and experimentation results, and executive reporting. Build and lead a high-performing global organization across platform engineering, product management, product operations, design and research enablement, developer support, data and analytics, and forward-deployed AI engineering, with clear accountability and a strong talent strategy. Maintain strong operational rigor, security, resilience, financial management, vendor governance, and continuous improvement across the enterprise toolchain. Compensation/Benefits Information: S&P Global states that the anticipated base salary range for this position is $220,000 to $350,000. Final base salary for this role will be based on the individual's geographic location, as well as experience level, skill set, training, licenses and certifications. In addition to base compensation, this role is eligible for an annual incentive plan. This role is not eligible for additional compensation such as an annual incentive bonus or sales commission plan. This role is eligible to receive additional S&P Global benefits. For more information on the benefits we provide to our employees, please click here . What We're Looking For: Basic Required Qualifications: A proven enterprise technology leader who has previously built, transformed, and operated a large-scale Developer Experience, developer platform, DevSecOps, or software engineering enablement function. Minimum of 15 years of progressive technology leadership experience, including responsibility for globally scaled engineering platforms, products, or shared services. Has held enterprise decision rights over tooling used by teams outside their own reporting line, with examples of contested standardization decisions reached alongside divisional CTOs and the trade-offs accepted on risk, cost, and developer experience.

Full time
This job is with S&P Global, an inclusive employer and a member of myGwork - the largest global platform for the LGBTQ+ business community. Please do not contact the recruiter directly. About the Role: Grade Level (for internal use): 15 The Team: Enterprise Technology & Platforms delivers cross-enterprise technology products, services, and capabilities to S&P Global's organizations and employees worldwide. The Developer Experience and Product Enablement function will own and evolve the enterprise product and software development lifecycle toolchain - the agentic PDLC - bringing together platforms, governance, support, productivity insights, and AI-native product management and engineering capabilities. It spans the full path from discovery and customer insight through definition, design, build, release, and in-market measurement, treating product management and engineering as one connected system rather than two adjacent toolsets. The team will operate as an enterprise hub, partnering closely with divisional CTO and product organizations and embedded practitioners to preserve business context while creating a consistent, scalable experience for both builders and the product leaders who direct them. Responsibilities and Impact: Approximately 10,000 developers across S&P Global build software on a common toolchain, and the product managers, designers, and analysts who decide what gets built work alongside them on a second, largely disconnected one. This role owns both and joins them. That toolchain is critical infrastructure for product discovery, software delivery, engineering productivity, security, resilience, and AI-native development. The role will reduce fragmentation and duplication, close the handoff gaps between product intent and shipped software, strengthen governance and support, and make developer and product experience a measurable strategic capability. Set the enterprise Developer Experience and Product Enablement strategy, product vision, roadmap, operating model, and investment priorities in partnership with the CIO leadership team, divisional CTOs, divisional heads of product, and other senior technology and product leaders. Own the full lifecycle of enterprise software development platforms and tools, including source code management, code collaboration, CI/CD, build engineering, developer environments, code quality and scanning, cloud development infrastructure, and related integrations. Own the full lifecycle of enterprise product management platforms and tools, including customer and market research repositories, idea intake and opportunity assessment, roadmapping and portfolio planning, requirements and specification authoring, design and prototyping, work management and backlog tooling, experimentation and feature management, product analytics, and voice-of-customer and feedback aggregation. Connect the two halves into a single agentic PDLC, establishing the traceable thread from customer insight to opportunity, specification, design, commit, release, and in-market outcome, so that product intent, engineering work, and measured impact reconcile in one system of record rather than in status decks. Manage the toolchain as a coherent portfolio of enterprise products, with clear customer outcomes, service levels, adoption goals, cost transparency, platform health measures, and accountable product ownership. Build a trusted partnership model with divisional CTOs, heads of product, executive sponsors, and embedded divisional practitioners to align enterprise standards with business-specific product and engineering requirements. Lead the consolidation of fragmented tooling, resources, licenses, support processes, and automation across both the product and engineering estates, reducing duplication while managing transitions without disrupting delivery. Establish a scalable support and self-service ecosystem for developers and product teams, including developer and product portals, template and artifact libraries, knowledge management, onboarding, access and license management, AI-assisted triage, and expert escalation. Own advocacy and community across both disciplines, including communities of practice, technical and product evangelism, onboarding and enablement content, craft standards for specifications and discovery practice, change communications, and structured feedback loops that earn adoption rather than mandate it. Own the innersource ecosystem, applying open-source working practice to proprietary code so that shared libraries, contribution standards, maintainer stewardship, and IP guardrails make reuse across divisions the default rather than the exception. Define and govern the enterprise approach to AI-native and agentic product development and software engineering, including approved tools, guardrails, model and data access, reusable agent workflows spanning research synthesis, specification drafting, prototype generation, code generation, and release readiness, platform integrations, experimentation, and responsible adoption. Create an enterprise measurement system for product and developer productivity and experience, including DORA metrics, cycle time from idea to release, adoption and utilization measures, tool ROI, practitioner sentiment, friction mapping, product outcome and experimentation results, and executive reporting. Build and lead a high-performing global organization across platform engineering, product management, product operations, design and research enablement, developer support, data and analytics, and forward-deployed AI engineering, with clear accountability and a strong talent strategy. Maintain strong operational rigor, security, resilience, financial management, vendor governance, and continuous improvement across the enterprise toolchain. Compensation/Benefits Information: S&P Global states that the anticipated base salary range for this position is $220,000 to $350,000. Final base salary for this role will be based on the individual's geographic location, as well as experience level, skill set, training, licenses and certifications. In addition to base compensation, this role is eligible for an annual incentive plan. This role is not eligible for additional compensation such as an annual incentive bonus or sales commission plan. This role is eligible to receive additional S&P Global benefits. For more information on the benefits we provide to our employees, please click here . What We're Looking For: Basic Required Qualifications: A proven enterprise technology leader who has previously built, transformed, and operated a large-scale Developer Experience, developer platform, DevSecOps, or software engineering enablement function. Minimum of 15 years of progressive technology leadership experience, including responsibility for globally scaled engineering platforms, products, or shared services. Has held enterprise decision rights over tooling used by teams outside their own reporting line, with examples of contested standardization decisions reached alongside divisional CTOs and the trade-offs accepted on risk, cost, and developer experience. Direct ownership of modern product and software development lifecycle platforms in production, including design, source control, CI/CD, building systems, artifact management, developer environments, cloud development infrastructure, application security tooling, and platform integrations.
