## What they're looking for

- You've led multi-level software engineering organizations at a startup, including managing managers, and you've done it through at least one phase change in company size or product maturity
- You've owned a production SaaS platform end to end: uptime, on-call, release engineering, and the infrastructure bill. You know what your cloud spend is and why
- You have real depth in cloud infrastructure and DevOps - deep enough to review a platform design, reject a bad one, and explain the company-level tradeoff behind the call
- You know what it takes to deploy solutions in the cloud and on premises. Performance deltas and reliability are proactive motions, not afterthoughts
- You define what done means, you unblock the team, and you are well versed in Radical Candor
- You love startups. You're highly engaged, you control the chaos, you rally when it's crunch time, and you love working through ambiguity
