Engineering Leader

Requirements

You love computers and programming. You have a degree in Computer Science or a related technical field or equivalent experience.

You are a hands-on technical leader – your skills and knowledge are current because you have been contributing in meaningful ways to technical teams even as you have advanced in leadership roles.

You have experience in distributed computing and deep knowledge of the cloud ecosystem.

You have deep experience and knowledge of enterprise software development lifecycles, including Agile methodologies (we generally use Scrumban here), CI/CD pipelines, discovery, design, quality assurance and support.

Current and past colleagues would describe you as an inspiring, humble, empathetic, and compassionate leader. You listen well and you are transparent with your thinking. You can influence without relying on hierarchy or authority.

You are a great mentor and coach, and you provide clear guidance. You are not a micro-manager, and you allow your folks and others outside your organization to make mistakes and support them as they learn and adjust.

You lead with curiosity. You actively seek out knowledge, learn quickly, and love to teach.

You are skilled at managing and resolving conflict among individuals, teams, team leaders, and your peers.

You are disciplined with a high attention to detail, reliable communication, and a steady hand.

You are up for traveling periodically to spend time with your team and the company and get some face-to-face time.

You know how to balance life & work despite the demands of a high-level leadership position.

You want to work with a bunch of really smart people that love working together. And you want to work at a scaleup with lots of happy customers, good investors, and a bright future.
