Job Description
Associate Director of Engineering - Search Experience
Ready to shape the future of how millions of customers find what they need? At Best Buy, we're looking for an Associate Director of Engineering to lead the team behind our next-generation search experiences. This is your chance to make a big impact on bestbuy.com and the Best Buy app while working in a collaborative, agile environment that values innovation and diversity of thought.

You'll lead talented engineering teams focused on building scalable, engaging search solutions. You'll partner with product and business leaders to set strategy, drive outcomes, and coach emerging leaders--all while fostering a culture of trust, inclusion, and continuous learning.

This role is hybrid, which means you will work some days at our corporate office in Richfield, Minnesota, and some days virtually from home or another non-Best Buy location. The specific work arrangements vary by role and team. The recruiter or hiring manager will provide more details during the hiring process.

What you'll do
  • Lead multiple engineering teams delivering new search experiences for customers and employees
  • Set strategic direction and align goals with organizational priorities
  • Hire, develop, and retain top talent while building an inclusive, innovative culture
  • Oversee architecture and code reviews to ensure quality and scalability
  • Drive adoption of modern practices like CI/CD, DevSecOps, and cloud-based solutions
  • Collaborate across teams to deliver enterprise outcomes and improve development at scale

Basic Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in IT, Computer Science, Engineering, or related field OR equivalent combination of education and/or experience
  • 6 years of software engineering experience
  • 2 years leading engineering teams
  • 2 years of experience with modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks (React or React Native)
  • 2 years of experience with iOS/Android app development and mobile architecture

Preferred Qualifications
  • 9 years of professional experience and deep expertise in React/React Native
  • 2 years leading managers
  • Experience with GraphQL
  • Experience implementing CI/CD at scale
  • Familiarity with cloud environments, design patterns, and scalable application development
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to lead in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment
