- Identify and remove the biggest technical risks and bottlenecks.
- Set engineering standards (design, testing, reliability, performance) and make them stick.
- Mentor senior engineers and raise the technical bar across teams.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR- 7+ years of software engineering, with a record of leading complex, cross-team systems.
- Deep system design expertise and strong hands-on coding ability.
- Demonstrated technical influence beyond your own direct work.
- Sound judgment about trade-offs, scope, and what to build vs. defer.
BONUS IF YOU HAVE- Experience scaling AI/ML systems or large data platforms.
- Early-stage startup or 01 product experience.
