You will manage a team of Senior Engineering Managers and Engineering Managers. 

You will provide direction for Search with a focus on the engineering aspects such as technical dependencies on product and category services, interactions with data science teams and services that provide user search intention and suggestions, architectural agreement for modernized search, and maturing the Agile processes driving the Search teams.
