Requirements

  • Have 5+ years of experience as an engineering manager.
  • Have a track record of developing engineers into leaders through partnership and delegation rather than taking on execution yourself.

  • Partner with product and design from discovery through delivery, bringing a strong technical voice to scoping and prioritization.
  • Grow engineers across specialties and experience levels into technical leaders through ownership and stretch opportunities.
  • Balance investment in future-facing product and architecture work with the reliability of existing systems.
  • Improve how the team detects, triages, and resolves user-facing incidents, issues, and bugs.
  • Understand the stack and systems deeply, and drive toward structures that become easier to maintain and change.
  • Collaborate with product, design, data, and operations to staff the right people against the right work.
