About the role
- Visionary leadership: Scope, resource, evangelize, and execute a company-wide reliability and engineering velocity roadmap across environments and clouds, real-time streaming infrastructure under immense scale, compute as well as AI -at-edge infrastructure, and the most ambitious cloud security roadmap in the entire tech industry. Collaborate with department heads across product engineering, security, product management, commercial, and more to develop, align, and execute an extremely ambitious strategic roadmap.
- Gifted tactician: We have an extremely diverse set of challenges all happening at the same time. We don’t expect you to code, but we expect you to be able to work at the level of small tiger teams to unblock, enable, and drive execution and solutioning. You’ll need to be creative on multiple dimensions and juggle several ambiguous and tricky problems at a time, at any given time.
- Recruiter extraordinaire: You’ll have all the resources you need at your disposal to scale out your team to meet this roadmap - both ICs and managers. You’ll need to be able to attract top talent and hire quickly while maintaining a consistently high bar. You’ll iterate on the hiring process along with other leaders, improve diversity and equity, retain and maximize the effectiveness of an extremely senior team, and make strategic bets on the people that will take us to the next level.
- Mentor to the mentors: The engineering team you’ll be managing, and all the teams you’ll be partnering with, are quite senior. You’ll be working to develop their careers, create top-of-ladder development opportunities, and continuously raise the bar for your staff as well as your peers and leaders in their abilities and awareness. You’ll need to earn their trust, lead by example, be a doctor rather than a judge for organizational and people challenges, and help establish and maintain a hivemind, de-siloed culture across all engineering pods.
Requirements
- 6+ years as a manager in rapidly growing organizations including at least 1 year as a manager of managers.
- Seeking an extremely challenging role that will push you beyond your limits, where failures are inevitable and not to be feared.
- Seeking a senior leadership role to develop people, environments, and impact - not ego, accolades, or ladder climbing.
- Able to ask for help, fail fast and admit defeat; get yourself and others out of their comfort zone.
- Track record of leading performance engineering including load test and chaos engineering, large scale distributed telemetry implementation, major architectural and software refactors, engineering velocity, and full stack development.
- Experience running production workloads in more than one cloud provider (at a time, or across your experience).
- Experience managing workloads across containerized solutions, Kubernetes, and CNCF-approved tooling such as Argo, istio, OTel, and more.
- Thought leader in platform building, with a strong desire to represent Abridge as a reliability engineering leader in the tech industry.
- Genuine passion for Abridge’s mission to improve healthcare in America and across the world.
