You'll work closely with Product, QA, Customer Success, and fellow engineering leaders to shape technical strategy and execute on ambitious goals.

What you'll bring:

  • Experience managing 5+ direct reports, or Team Lead/Developer Lead experience with strong people leadership
  • Understanding of modern software frameworks, system architecture, and best practices for building scalable SaaS applications.
  • Strong competency in Agile processes, product roadmaps, prioritization, and estimation-you know how to balance velocity with quality.
  • Knowledge of security practices, compliance frameworks, and OWASP principles.
  • Desire to grow as both a technical leader and people manager in an engineering atmosphere that moves quickly and strives to raise the bar.
  • Ability to work across business units-you've collaborated with Product, Sales, Customer Success, or Support teams to deliver outcomes.

How you'll Raise the Bar:
  • Champion modern development practices like test-driven development, frequent releases, and continuous improvement. Ensure your team ships with both velocity and quality.
  • Build a culture where engineers are challenged, supported, and able to do their best work. Grow their capabilities and create clear paths for development.
  • Drive developer efficiency initiatives that eliminate obstacles and reduce toil. Enable your team to focus on delivering outcomes that matter to customers.
