About the role

  • Lead and grow a team of engineers focused on recommendations (recommendation systems, modeling, controls, policy management, policy deployment, framework mapping).
  • Balance hands-on contributions (architecture, code reviews, technical design) with management responsibilities.
  • Drive execution of projects from planning to delivery, ensuring timelines, quality, and stakeholder alignment.
  • Establish and refine engineering processes around productivity, quality tracking, incident management, and performance recognition.
  • Hire and develop top technical talent across different seniorities, acting as a bar raiser in interviews.
  • Provide mentorship, set clear expectations, and manage performance across both high and low performers.
  • Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
  • Collaborate closely with product and design to deliver user-facing features with high impact.
  • Contribute to long-term application architecture and system design decisions.
  • Guide the team through production issues and ensure operational excellence.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of engineering management experience, with proven success leading teams in data, ML/AI, or recommendation systems.
  • Prior experience as a senior IC with deep expertise in backend or data systems.
  • Strong understanding of AI/ML techniques, especially in recommendation or decision-support systems.
  • Experience designing and delivering data-driven products that model complex domains (security, compliance, or similar).
  • Familiarity with cybersecurity frameworks (e.g., NIST, ISO, CIS) and the ability to translate them into technical systems for measurement and progress tracking.
  • Solid foundation in databases, data modeling, and system design for large-scale, data-intensive applications.
  • Proficiency in Python and comfort with modern data/ML ecosystems.
  • Demonstrated ability to hire, mentor, and scale high-performing engineering teams.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to clearly articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience in B2B SaaS; cybersecurity industry background is a strong plus.
  • Must be a US citizen or Green Card holder.
