At Disney Experiences Technology (DXT), we believe the heart of our Guest experience starts with a conversation. We are looking for a Manager, Software Engineering to lead the delivery and ongoing sustainment of our Contact Center platforms across Disneyland Resort (DLR), Walt Disney World (WDW), and Disney Vacation Club (DVC).

Based on-site in Orlando, you will be the cultural and technical anchor for a high-performing engineering team.

This role requires a unique blend of technical depth and organizational skill. You are a technologist who relishes hands-on contribution, and a leader who builds high-trust environments and shows the way for your team. You will be a key partner in shaping our technical architecture and own the implementation of that vision, driving results with a relentless bias toward action. You'll collaborate with architects to set the technical design and direct the work of Cast and contractors across multiple time zones and vendors to ensure quality, delivery, and operational excellence. All the while also contributing hands-on in the platform.

Key Responsibilities

Roadblock Removal: Act as the primary "pathfinder" for the team. You identify hurdles early and find creative, optimistic ways to maintain progress and ensure successful delivery. Lead the way by doing, not just telling.

Stakeholder Partnership: Build strong, collaborative relationships with business partners across DLR, WDW, and DVC. You excel at translating technical roadmaps into business success.

Who You Are

Likable & Influential: You can connect with people at all levels. You handle high-pressure situations with grace and maintain a positive, optimistic team environment.

Bias for Action: You don't wait for permission to solve a problem. You see a gap and you fill it, always pushing for tangible progress and excellence in execution.

Technically Curious: You remain close to the code to guide your Full Stack and Salesforce engineers. You understand the "how" behind Apex, Java, and Node.js.

Aptitude-Focused: You hire and develop for potential. You aren't intimidated by new technology, and you empower your team to become proficient in new tools quickly.
