About the role
- Run the engineering org day-to-day, reporting to the engineering leader.
- This is a fast-moving train - real timelines, real customers, working software demoed every Friday.
- This is not a body shop and you don't run it like one: it's a startup environment inside a bigger company, and the plan will change under you - new tech, new priorities, new customer asks.
Responsibilities
- You own delivery across all squads, the hiring pipeline, and the standards that keep a senior-IC team shipping fast without ceremony.
- What you'll own:
- Tech-lead and squad performance
- Hiring (you personally own the funnel and the bar)
- Translating business requirements into technical scope the squads can build
Requirements
- You can point to the dates you hit.
- Hands-on enough to read Go, Python, and TypeScript and call architecture out in review - you have not stopped being an engineer.
- Strong working knowledge of the modern AI stack - LLMs, SLMs, RAG, knowledge graphs, agents, fine-tuning/training, eval.
Nice to have
- 10+ years engineering leadership in SaaS or platform companies
- at least one stint scaling an org from 30 IC engineers - ideally in a startup or startup-speed environment.
Benefits
- Our vision is the same, a place where employees know they can thrive.
Company info
- it's a startup environment inside a bigger company, and the plan will change under you - new tech, new priorities, new customer asks.
- You absorb the change, re-plan in hours not weeks, and keep the train moving.
- Cross-squad dependencies and the engineering operating rhythm ·
- Escalation path for blocked work - you move it, not track it.
- A delivery persona with a show-me mentality.
- You trust demos, not status decks. A self-starter with grit who has run fast trains before and likes winning.
- You've kept the respect of very senior engineers because you're still technically credible in the room.
- You challenge an architecture, and they listen.
- You use AI tools yourself, daily, and expect the org to use them to multiply velocity.
- Run the engineering org day-to-day, reporting to the engineering leader. This is a fast-moving train - real timelines, real customers, working software demoed every Friday.
