Requirements
- You have some experience leading a high-performing team of engineers, including managing and shipping cross-functional or multi-team projects.
- You are excited to support and grow empowered teams through a blend of psychological safety and positive accountability.
- You live and breathe collaboration with product and design to understand the larger business context and frame projects and prioritization around impact to the business and users.
- You've worked in product engineering roles with meaningful backend experience and understand the technology, tools, and challenges enough to rise to at least a Senior Engineer or an equivalent level.
- You understand the value of building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive team and bring that lens to your work as a leader in hiring, team culture, and beyond.
- You have demonstrated experience shaping and improving software delivery.
- You understand methodologies like Agile, XP, and Lean, and see their value, but don't believe there's only one right way to get work done.
- You are comfortable with the pace and trade offs of a growth stage startup (meaning: know how to take care of yourself and your team, get your work done without working around the clock, prioritize ruthlessly, be able to tolerate a little uncertainty and sometimes wear different hats).
