About the role
- You'll take an already-forming org through its next stage of growth.
Responsibilities
- Lead and grow two teams, UX (human onboarding and activation) and Agent Platform (the equivalent experience for agents via programmatic interfaces like the MCP, CLI, API, SDK, and Blueprints)
- Own the roadmap for Render's self-serve user journey, from first touch through activation, initial monetization, usage expansion, new feature adoption, and PQL graduation
- Drive the agent-facing side of the platform: build the API-driven experience that lets agents integrate with and operate on Render
- Partner with the dedicated product and design partners on both teams to align roadmap with customer, growth, and platform needs
- Hire and develop engineers to support planned team growth, while keeping both teams' identities and focus areas clear as they scale
- Build a strong performance management and career development practice for a team that already includes senior ICs
- Proven experience building and scaling more than one team, ideally growing a group from a handful of engineers into a larger org
- Experience managing and developing senior (IC5+) engineers, including hiring and performance management
- Ability to partner closely with product and design without needing to fill those functions yourself
- We will also work with you to create a supportive plan of return.
Requirements
- Comfort operating in ambiguity, with adaptability and a growth mindset
- Strong product instincts, with the ability to connect engineering investment to growth and activation outcomes
- What matters is experience and ability to operate in a fast-paced environment
- Prior growth-focused engineering experience (onboarding, activation, funnel optimization)
- Experience helping a team split or reorganize as it scales into multiple teams
