Manager, Software Engineering - Sitecore Platform
for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. The posting includes responsibilities (list), qualifications (list), preferred qualifications (list), about us (company description), benefits (some mention: Health Insurance, Retirement Plan, Disability benefits, Paid Time Off program, competitive total rewards package). Pay: "We offer a competitive total rewards package that includes base salary determined based on role, experience, skill set, and location." That's not specific numbers, but it's still content about pay. The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state benefits and pay (though vague). Should we include Pay section? It says base salary determined based on role, experience, skill set, location. That's still content about pay. So we can include a Pay section with that sentence. Benefits: they list Health Insurance, Retirement Plan, Disability benefits, Paid Time Off program. So include Benefits section.
Schedule: not mentioned. So omit Schedule.
Skills: maybe we can extract from qualifications: proficiency in Sitecore development using C#, .NET, Next.js, React, GraphQL, PowerShell; strong understanding of JavaScript (ES6+), React, Next.js, CSS, HTML5, etc. Could make a Skills section. But we already have Qualifications and Requirements sections. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could combine qualifications and skills into one "Qualifications" section that includes both required and preferred? But they said use headings like Qualifications, Skills, etc. We need to decide.
We have Responsibilities (list). Qualifications (list of required). Preferred Qualifications (list). Could treat "Qualifications" as required, and maybe "Preferred Qualifications" as a subsection? But we cannot create subheadings besides h3? We could include both under Qualifications with separate maybe with a note? But better to have Qualifications (required) and maybe "Preferred Qualifications" as another h3? The instruction says use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests those as examples. Could we add "Preferred Qualifications"? Might be okay but they said prefer few substantive sections. Could combine required and preferred into Qualifications with two lists: "Required Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications" as headings? But we cannot use other headings? Might be okay to use
with bold? But safer to stick to given headings: Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. Possibly also About the role (the initial paragraph). Could have About the role as h3 with the introductory paragraph.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, unsolicited resumes, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, etc. The posting includes a lot of boilerplate at the end: "Verisk Analytics is an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Must remove.
We must preserve all substantive information: responsibilities, qualifications, preferred qualifications, about us (company description), benefits, pay.
We need to format lists with
- . For prose use
.
Let's extract content.
About the role: The first paragraph after "Job Description": "This is a hands-on technical leadership role requiring deep software engineering and Sitecore expertise. You will help define the technical direction, translate business opportunities into scalable solutions, and lead products from concept and experimentation through production deployment. You will remain actively engaged in solution architecture, design and code reviews, technical problem-solving, and the development of prototypes and complex components."
That's the about role.
Responsibilities: bullet list after "Responsibilities". Let's capture each line:
- Lead and develop a globally distributed engineering team through hands-on technical leadership, performance management, mentoring, and coaching.
- Define and execute the long-term technical strategy for the Sitecore platform, including software architecture, security, scalability, reliability, process automation, and alignment with business objectives.
- Partner with Product Owners and business stakeholders to translate business needs into technical requirements, solution architectures, delivery plans, and actionable engineering tasks.
- Design and implement resilient, scalable architectures that maintain application availability and minimize downtime.
- Remain actively involved in solution design, code and architecture reviews, troubleshooting, performance optimization, refactoring, and resolution of complex technical issues.
- Provide technical guidance to software engineers and establish development standards and engineering best practices.
- Evaluate new technologies and recommend improvements to the platform, architecture, development processes, and delivery model.
- Develop work breakdown structures, delivery schedules, resource plans, and budget estimates for complex software development initiatives.
- Communicate technical decisions, trade-offs, project status, risks, dependencies, and priorities effectively to engineering teams, business partners, customers, and senior stakeholders.
- Coordinate the complete software development lifecycle, from architecture and design through development, testing, deployment, and production support.
Qualifications (required): after "Qualifications". List:
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
- 7+ years of experience in software development and application maintenance, including significant hands-on experience with Sitecore XP, XM, or XM Cloud.
- Demonstrated experience leading software engineering teams, including globally distributed teams.

- Experience translating high-level business requirements into solution designs, technical requirements, and actionable development tasks.
- Experience delivering software using Scrum and Agile development methodologies.
- Strong troubleshooting, performance optimization, code-review, and refactoring skills.
- Demonstrated ability to manage multiple initiatives, balance competing priorities, and keep teams focused on the work that delivers the greatest business value.
- Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills, including experience working with business partners, senior leaders, and external customers.
- Ability to learn and adapt to evolving technologies, platforms, and development practices.
Preferred Qualifications: after "Preferred Qualifications". List:
- Experience integrating Sitecore applications with content delivery networks.
- Hands-on experience migrating web applications from Sitecore XP or XM to Sitecore XM Cloud.
- Experience architecting and building new applications on Sitecore XM Cloud.
- Proficiency with AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot, Kiro, or Claude and their integrations with development environments.
- Relevant Sitecore certifications.
About Us: after "About Us". Paragraphs describing Verisk. We need to keep that as About the role? Actually we already have About the role. Could treat About Us as company description maybe under "About the role" or separate "About the company". But instruction only gave examples; we could add "About the company" as h3 if we want. But they said prefer few substantive sections. Could combine About the role and About Us into one "About the role" section? Might be mixing. Better to have "About the role" (the initial description) and maybe "About Verisk" as another section? But they didn't list About Verisk as example; but we could still use h3 for any heading. However they said "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." The e.g. implies those are examples, not exclusive. So we can add "About Verisk" as h3.
But we must avoid too many thin sections. The About Verisk paragraph is substantive. Could include as "About the company". Let's do "About Verisk".
Benefits: after "Verisk invests in a benefits package for all employees that includes the following: Health Insurance, a Retirement Plan, Disability benefits, and a Paid Time Off program." Also later: "We offer a competitive total rewards package that includes base salary determined based on role, experience, skill set, and location." That's pay.
Thus Benefits section: list those four items.
Pay section: sentence about base salary determined based on role, experience, skill set, location.
We should not include "competitive total rewards package" maybe as part of Pay.
Now we need to strip boilerplate: The rest after benefits includes EEO statements, unsolicited resumes, etc. Remove.
Now produce HTML fragment.
