Salary
💰 $130,000 - $190,000 per year
About the role
- Coach, mentor, and guide engineers in technical skills, career growth, and communication, ensuring a continuous focus on building and scaling high-performing individuals.
- Uphold a high technical bar through rigorous code reviews, design discussions, and technical decision-making. Foster strong security and compliance practices, and stay hands-on with the code when needed to support delivery and set the standard.
- Conduct interviews and build stable, high-performing teams, specifically focusing on providing stability for a team that has seen recent management rotations.
- Review existing processes and proactively offer improvements rather than just following established workflows.
- Own outcomes end-to-end. Ensure tradeoffs are explicit, commitments are met, and misses are identified early through proactive escalation.
- Partner in a Triad structure with Product and Design. Navigate the team through a fast-paced environment with constant change and shifting priorities, including AI-assisted development.
- Ensure that leadership is never surprised by team status and that a deep level of trust is built with the engineers.
- Maintain a "must-have" mindset for hands-on work; while not coding daily, you are ready to step into the code to unblock the team or expedite delivery.
