What you'll doResponsibilities

  • Partner with product to define, communicate, and track team goals/OKRs aligned with product and company strategy.
  • Make thoughtful prioritization and trade‑off decisions between scope, quality, and speed.
  • Lead planning, estimation, and phased rollouts for large, cross‑functional projects and customer‑impacting changes.
  • Improve how the team works by evolving processes, tools, and collaboration patterns, including using AI/automation to increase efficiency and value.
  • Partner closely with Product Management and Design as part of an effective “triad” to deliver customer‑centric solutions.

What you bringQualifications

  • 5+ years of relevant industry experience (engineering, technical leadership, and/or management).
  • 3+ years of management experience, including leading cross‑functional teams.
  • Proven track record of delivering measurable results (e.g., business impact, customer satisfaction, technical metrics (improved performance, reliability, quality, etc.), delivery metrics (team throughput, etc.).
  • Experience giving direct, timely feedback and handling difficult conversations with clarity and empathy.
  • Solid engineering background with the ability to “speak the language” of engineers, review designs, ask the right technical questions and challenge decisions and estimations.
  • Experience with planning, prioritization, and execution of complex customer-facing projects.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to tailor messages to both technical and non‑technical audiences.
  • Experience in setting team goals and using metrics to manage and improve team performance.
  • Strong track record in coaching, career development, and performance management.
  • Proficiency with agile development practices and iterative delivery.
  • Strong business and product sense: ability to connect technical work to customer value and company strategy.
