The Director of Engineering, Core Services, will lead and grow multiple teams who work on our core application platform, stretching from IAM to a front-end platform, from product analytics to a framework for our external API.
They’re trusted mentors to managers and engineers across the organization and vital partners for the Director of Product, working with them to develop the strategy for the team and the product.
They are as comfortable in front of a whiteboard discussing architecture as they are building and measuring OKRs.
They would rather make sure the experts in their teams can make decisions effectively, but they’re comfortable with making the big decisions where necessary.
We measure success by the retention and engagement of our engineering team, and ultimately delivery against our product roadmap.
