Essential Duties and Responsibilities:

This is not just a development role. It’s a strategic role that blends digital experience architecture with platform governance, team development, and cross-functional collaboration. You will oversee our internet digital ecosystem, define scalable processes, and champion both web and mobile technology strategies.

This role will be required to be onsite at our Alpharetta Corporate office as well as at our Innovation and Development Lab, located in the Corporate Innovation Center at Georgia Tech in Midtown Atlanta.

Key Responsibilities:

Strategic Digital Governance & Web Presence Oversight:

• Own the end-to-end digital architecture for public websites, mobile applications, and internal platforms.
• Conduct comprehensive audits of Avanos’ existing web infrastructure and digital experiences to identify opportunities for modernization, consolidation, and scalability—while also evaluating and addressing specific security risks and vulnerabilities.
• Establish governance models for digital content, security, compliance, and performance.
• Define and enforce standards, best practices, and development frameworks across digital platforms.
• Develop clear team roles, standard operating procedures (SOPs), onboarding materials, and documentation.
• Guide strategic vendor relationships, agency collaboration, and internal partnerships.

Website, Mobile & Backend Development:

• Architect and guide delivery of enterprise-scale content management ecosystems—such as WordPress—including oversight of custom themes, plugins, and multisite configurations. This role requires experience in such platforms but does not entail primary hands-on development responsibilities.
• Lead cross-platform mobile app development using React Native for iOS and Android, with end-to-end deployment capabilities.
• Implement immersive front-end solutions using React, JavaScript, HTML/CSS, and tools like A-Frame or Three.js.
• Manage secure and scalable backend services in Node.js, PHP, and MySQL/SQL environments.

DevOps, Cloud & Infrastructure Management:

• Drive CI/CD strategy using GitHub Actions, ensuring consistency across development, test, and production environments.
• Maintain scalable, secure, and high-performing cloud infrastructure (Azure preferred; AWS/Docker acceptable).
• Oversee domain and subdomain management, SSL lifecycle, and global DNS architecture.
• Champion compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and enterprise security protocols.

Your Qualifications

Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Technology, or a related field.
• Demonstrated experience in digital strategy, platform governance, and cross-functional leadership, spanning 7+ years in digital ecosystems (web and backend) and including at least 3–5 years of strategic or technical leadership roles.
• Experience with mobile app development (e.g., React Native), CMS platforms (e.g., WordPress) a plus
• Knowledge of e-commerce systems (SFDC Commerce Cloud, Shopify, etc.)  Candidates should have experience overseeing implementations and technical decision-making.
• Hands-on experience with React, Node.js, MySQL/SQL, and cloud platforms (Azure preferred).
• Proven experience with website security management, domain governance, and accessibility compliance—not just familiarity.
• Direct experience implementing and maintaining cookie policy libraries (e.g., OneTrust, Cookiebot) and related compliance workflows.
• Strong knowledge of CSC domain management, DNS, and SSL configuration.
• Familiarity with cookie policy libraries (e.g., OneTrust, Cookiebot) and compliance workflows.
