About the role
- This role sits at the intersection of engineering, product, marketing, and data - with a strong emphasis on modern web technologies, e-commerce platforms, and subscription business models.

- Build realistic and efficient agile project plans, align across partner teams, proactively identify risks, and develop risk mitigation strategies.
- Identify, define, and drive key investments in improving quality and development efficiency (i.e. quality, testing, engineering best practices, etc.).

- Deep hands-on expertise in modern web tech stacks, including React, Next.js, AWS, Postgres, and Kubernetes.
