Our Engineering Enablement Department has a purpose to accelerate our teams worldwide. We strive to provide teams with a set of tools and services to enable them to unlock their full potential. In short, we enable them to deliver quality customer value quickly and autonomously. The tools and services we provide are built with and for our engineering community.
As an engineer in engineering enablement platform (EEP), you build products and platforms for our engineers. You contribute directly to creating a state-of-the-art, self-service eco-system of products and automation. This is a mission you will not take on solo, but as a full-fledged member of the enablement team. Following Inner-Sourcing principles, you will work with users and maintainers throughout the whole organization to fit your ideas into the bigger picture: Accelerate our product teams, so they can deliver quality customer value quickly and autonomously.
ShadowCat revolutionizes evidence collection by automating the entire process and presenting it in dashboards. Gone are the days of manually gathering evidence. With ShadowCat, the more you align with other engineering enablement products, the more automated your evidence collection becomes.
ShadowCat also provides deep insights into the efficiency of your software development process. By offering access to standardized metrics and definitions through intuitive dashboards, you can easily identify areas for improvement and optimize your workflow. We look at industry standards such as DORA.
