About the role
Submittable is hiring a Vice President of Engineering who is deeply technical, works hands-on, and builds with AI every day. You will report to the CTO and run engineering day to day: delivery, quality, reliability, cost, and the people who make them happen. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- B2B SaaS at scale. Experience building and running multi-tenant, cloud-based B2B SaaS products. Experience consolidating platforms or integrating acquired products is a plus
- Predictable delivery. A record of shipping complex software on predictable timelines without trading away quality, security, or reliability
- Distributed teams. You have led teams across multiple countries and time zones, including offshore or nearshore partners. You write clearly, because much of this work happens in writing
- Comfort with fast change. The norms for building software now shift every few months. You form a view, test it, and change your mind when the evidence says so
- A clear storyteller. You can explain technical trade-offs to executives and non-technical colleagues in plain language. You tell people where engineering is going and why, often enough that they repeat it
- A builder of strong teams. A track record of hiring, developing, and keeping strong engineers and building inclusive teams
