## About the role

We're hiring a Director of Engineering to lead the engineering organization behind nTop's product platform: the teams that build our modeling and rendering engine, our simulation capabilities, our distributed computing platform, and the quality function that spans all three. You will report to the CTO, lead a team of engineering managers, and own how the platform roadmap gets executed. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Significant experience leading engineering organizations, including managing engineering managers across multiple teams
- A record of making an engineering organization faster — you've changed how a team plans, builds, tests, or ships, and you can point to the result
- You've delivered a new product from zero to one while keeping existing products healthy
- Hands-on experience leading the adoption of AI-assisted development in an engineering organization, and a clear point of view on how it changes process, staffing, and quality
- Enough technical depth to be credible with expert engineers in geometry, GPU computing, physics simulation, or distributed systems
- Exceptional at prioritization and decision-making under an ambitious timeline, and creative about how work gets done
