About the role

  • Support and scale multiple engineering teams, recruiting top-tier talent to execute on an aggressive and meaningful product roadmap.

  • Own the outcomes of your organization, ensuring the technology you oversee is fast, accurate, and high-performing.
  • Cultivate a culture of high-quality execution and continuous delivery where accountability is everything.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of software development experience with 4+ years leading multiple engineering teams or managing managers.
  • Deep experience architecting and maintaining high-availability, distributed systems and cloud-based services (We’re on GCP - but AWS/Azure experience fine).
  • Proven expertise in modern SDLC practices, including CI/CD, automated testing, and agile development.
  • A strong track record of recruiting & retaining senior talent.
  • Comfort managing complex data workflows and modernizing legacy codebases without interrupting service.

  • Comprehensive Benefits: Excellent health, dental, and vision coverage that supports your whole self.
  • Growth Opportunity: This is resume-building work. You will lead a core pillar of our business, scaling critical teams and building new products rather than just maintaining the status quo.
  • Work That Matters: You aren't just moving data; you're removing the barriers between a person and the care they need. Go home at night proud of the access and experience you have created.
