About the role

Responsibilities

  • Coach and grow engineering managers and senior ICs via hands-on mentorship, clear growth paths, and real career development.
  • Build the engineering leadership bench and own talent and retention strategy as the team grows and expands to multiple offices.
  • Set and clearly articulate technical strategy, holding your own in deep technical conversations and raising the bar on system design for correctness and scale.
  • Partner cross-functionally with GTM and VP of Product to shape product, competitive, and monetization strategy.
  • Establish technical and process foundations for next stage of growth: lightweight, high-leverage, and built to scale without slowing the team down.
