## About the role

We’re bringing much needed simplicity to the complex world of employee leave. Today, the process is needlessly complex: going on leave (be it parental, medical, bereavement, or for any other reason) means talking to reps and wading through a mountain of government and insurance claims just to get your time off and income in moments when you're the most stressed and busy. We talked to hundreds of employees and employers who had nightmare stories to tell, so we decided to fix it.

## What they're looking for

- Have led or managed an engineering team working on customer facing product experiences
- Are comfortable navigating ambiguity and bringing clarity to complex or evolving problems
- Have experience leading and shipping large initiatives with high business impact
- Have experience making thoughtful technical tradeoffs, writing and reviewing code, and providing system-level guidance to engineering teams
- Are able to identify, hire, and retain strong engineering talent, including through performance management and coaching
- Care deeply about both the business and your team, and provide candid, constructive feedback while mentoring others and fostering an inclusive environment
