About the role

Take on the hardest prioritization calls when the team is being pulled in multiple directions, bringing structure and calm to competing priorities.
Connect your pod's work to the broader platform strategy and communicate progress clearly to senior stakeholders.

Experience working on consumer-facing services (accounts, identity, or social systems) ideally at scale.
Enough technical depth to engage credibly with engineers on system design and tradeoffs, without needing to be the expert in the room.
Strong cross-functional instincts, you build alignment across teams that don't naturally agree and ship reliably at quality.
Ability to bring clarity to ambiguous situations with competing priorities, knowing which problems to solve first and why.
Clear, confident communicator with experience presenting to and influencing senior stakeholders.
Experience in or supporting game development (especially free-to-play mobile or other scaled consumer apps) strongly preferred.
