About the Role

  • Work cross-team and cross-functionally, balancing the (often conflicting) perspectives of these stakeholders
  • Cultivate an energetic, fast paced, collaborative, and high accountability culture
  • Prioritize business impact while ensuring that your team builds maintainable and scalable technical solutions

You Have:

  • 1-3 years of experience as an engineering manager
  • 6+ years of experience in software development 
  • Experience as a Senior Engineer designing, implementing, and operating distributed applications at scale
  • Proven ability to attract, hire, and develop top engineering talent
  • Deep experience with customer-facing product development
