  • Foster a culture of simplicity, quality, and continuous improvement.
  • Contribute to code and architecture reviews, unblock teams, and lead by example when needed.

What You Have

  • A track record of leading high-performing, engaged engineering teams.
  • Strong product sense and an instinct for balancing speed, quality, and user impact.
