Pourquoi ce role est-il important?

Our PC Optimum program is one of the most recognized and loved loyalty programs in Canada, helping millions of Canadians save more and shop smarter. We’re now looking for a Director of Engineering to lead the next evolution of our Loyalty platform — enhancing its reach, resilience, and innovation.

As Director of Engineering for Loyalty, you will be a core leader within Loblaw Digital’s technology organization. You’ll oversee the architecture, development, and delivery of critical loyalty platforms that serve millions of Canadians daily.

You’ll lead and grow high-performing engineering teams, own the technical vision, scale our systems to meet growing demand, and ensure we continue to deliver reliable and personalized loyalty experiences.

Your mission: to build a world-class digital ecosystem that supports one of Canada’s most important retail loyalty programs.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead, mentor, and grow multiple engineering teams and software development managers, fostering a culture of technical excellence, ownership, and continuous improvement.
  • Define and execute the technical strategy for the PC Optimum platform, ensuring it scales to meet evolving customer expectations and business goals.
  • Drive consistent, high-quality delivery across digital experiences while ensuring operational excellence, scalability, and performance.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, data, and marketing teams to define and deliver complex features that make a measurable impact.
  • Manage multiple parallel projects and priorities while balancing technical constraints with business objectives.
  • Partner with internal stakeholders and external vendors (onshore and offshore) to ensure the delivery of scalable and secure solutions.
  • Own architectural decisions and set best practices for modern engineering approaches, including cloud-native development, microservices, CI/CD, and observability.
  • Represent the engineering function at the leadership level, providing insight and influence across business and technology teams.
  • Build and nurture a strong engineering culture through hiring, coaching, and career development.

What You Bring

  • At least 1 year in a Director-level engineering, ideally within a high-scale digital commerce or loyalty-focused organization.
  • Proven track record of leading high-performing teams and scaling complex, customer-facing platforms.
  • Deep technical expertise in cloud infrastructure, microservices architecture, APIs, and modern web technologies — plus a strong foundation in both frontend and backend systems.
  • Hands-on leadership style with the ability to dive deep and engage in architectural discussions while empowering teams to thrive.
  • Strong product sense — you understand how technology enables business outcomes and how engineering can drive customer value.
  • Demonstrated experience working in agile environments and applying the right delivery model based on business needs.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence across technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • A passion for people — you actively mentor, coach, and invest in your team’s growth.
  • Bachelor's Degree in Engineering or Computer Science required; advanced degree preferred.
