## Job Description

## Responsibilities
- Lead, hire, and develop a high-performing engineering team, and grow engineers through their next stage of impact
- Stay hands-on: write and ship code on high-leverage projects, and set the technical bar by doing the work alongside your team
- Review your team's pull requests and lead design reviews, raising the bar for quality, testing, and maintainability through direct feedback
- Own the technical direction for the deals and offers surface, from member-facing discovery and redemption experiences to the platform that powers them
- Partner closely with Product, Design, and Analytics to grow deal attach, claim, and redemption, and to turn experiments into durable member value
- Establish a sense of urgency and direction, set clear team objectives in alignment with organization and company priorities, and hold a high bar for execution
- Drive architecture and technical decisions that keep the deals platform reliable, well-instrumented, and scalable as volume grows
- Manage partner and merchant integrations, working across engineering and external vendors to expand offer supply and improve measurement
- Ensure quality, performance, and operational health, including a healthy on-call and incident-response culture
- Contribute to broader SSI and Chime engineering initiatives as a member of the engineering leadership team

## Requirements
- 2+ years of people management experience, including hiring and developing engineers
- Current, hands-on coding ability and the desire to stay technical; you are excited to contribute code and review PRs, not just manage
- Fluency with AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor, and a track record of using them to raise your own and your team's leverage
- A strong technical foundation and the ability to guide architecture and review technical decisions with your team
- Experience shipping consumer product features and running experimentation, with a bias toward iteration and measuring impact
- Experience with service-oriented architectures and building or owning backend platforms at scale
