## About the role

WMS is the core engine running Stord's fulfillment operation today, in real time, for real customers. The team is also investing heavily in platform enhancements that matter to Stord's continued growth. This role owns two engineering teams dedicated to maintaining and enhancing the platform.

## What they're looking for

- Strong engineering fundamentals. You have a real technical background and can engage credibly in design discussions, code review, and architecture decisions with your teams, not just process and delivery
- People management fundamentals. You've managed engineers directly: hiring, performance reviews, feedback, and career development, not just project coordination
- Delivery ownership. You can run a scrum team (or two) through predictable, consistent delivery cycles and communicate progress, risk, and blockers clearly to leadership
- Comfort with ambiguity. You can set clear direction for your teams even when priorities or requirements shift, without needing everything spelled out before you act
- Production mindset. You think about reliability, monitoring, and failure modes as core parts of how your teams build, especially for systems running live operations
- Ownership & Accountability: You own outcomes, not just activities. When your team ships, you take pride. When something breaks, you take responsibility and fix the system
