About the Role

Realtor.com is seeking a passionate Director of Engineering for Consumer Enablement to spearhead the platform and enablement organization that drives all consumer-facing web and mobile experiences. This pivotal engineering leadership role encompasses three crucial domains: Web & Mobile Platforms, Consumer Services, and Quality Enablement, serving as the foundation for all consumer product teams at Realtor.com.

You will oversee a dynamic multi-team organization of approximately 40 engineers (full-time employees and contractors), managing senior engineering managers and staff engineers across web and mobile platforms, component systems, backend services, and quality engineering, reporting directly to the VP of Consumer Engineering.

This role requires a blend of technical expertise and organizational influence. Instead of merely shipping features, you will create a streamlined pathway that enables dozens of engineers to deliver faster, safer, and with higher quality.

What You'll Do

Platform Strategy & Execution

  • Lead the technical roadmap for web and mobile platform infrastructure, including MFE architecture (web-islands), CI/CD pipelines, React Router 7 migration (Project Oracle), and headless CMS platform.
  • Drive the evolution of Realtor.com’s design system (rdc-ui V4: Panda CSS migration) and component ecosystem utilized across 41 codebases.
  • Guide the transformation of legacy monolithic services (Hestia) into domain-owned GraphQL subgraphs via Pantheon federation.

Engineering Enablement

  • Define and deliver the "paved path", standardized patterns, tooling, and guardrails that alleviate cognitive load for over 100 consumer engineers.
  • Own DORA metrics for the organization.
