About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Lead, mentor, and empower a high-performing agile development team to deliver cutting-edge, end-to-end audio and video marketing solutions.
Bridge the gap between product strategy and technical execution, driving continuous delivery, optimizing team workflows, and fostering a culture of trust and technical excellence to support our growing subscription-based platform.
Perform One-on-Ones: Regular touchpoints focusing on career growth, unblocking issues, and building trust (not just project status updates).

Handle team building, interviewing, onboarding new talent, and managing exits or performance improvement plans (PIPs).
Approve timesheets accurately and on time.
Partner with the team to ensure backlog is refined, estimated, and ready for successful sprint starts.
Facilitate continuous alignment and help the team reflect on improving processes during daily standups & retrospectives.
Represent the team's accomplishments and deliverables at end-of-sprint review meetings.
Track and report on team health and delivery performance (e.g., velocity, cycle time, burndown charts).
Collaborate with the Product Owner to align on product priorities, roadmap feasibility, and defining upcoming work.
Participate in architectural and design alignments with leaders across the backend, device, and in-reality teams to ensure technical cohesion.
Manage and resolve high-priority production issues and outages as the point person for production escalations.
Work with the Support team to triage, prioritize, and transition escalations from Zendesk into actionable Jira tickets.
