## About the role

Feanix is expanding its product offerings based on our farmers' needs and moving into other species, and engineering has to scale with these business goals. Today we're a small, tight engineering team behind one core product: Autopilot and sire mating, the decision engine farmers act on every day. We're shifting from individuals carrying whole systems to teams that share them, and we're growing in close partnership with our product organization. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 10+ years in software engineering, including 5+ years managing engineers and at least 2 years managing managers. You reached a senior engineering level as an IC first
- A track record of scaling an engineering org at a startup through a growth phase, ideally from around 10 to 30+ engineers, including splitting teams and adding a management layer as you went
- Managers you can point to: people you hired or promoted into management and developed into strong leaders
- Experience building engineering hiring processes that attract strong talent, including calibrating interviewers and closing senior candidates
- Experience leading delivery across several products or teams at once, and balancing customer-facing roadmap work against platform and infrastructure investment
- A strong partnership record with product leaders: you've worked as an equal partner to a head of product, not as an order-taker or a gatekeeper
