## About the role

Lead and develop a cross-disciplinary team of engineers spanning frontend, backend, and infrastructure. Own the technical roadmap; partner with the Product Manager on the product roadmap.

## What they're looking for

- You're equally comfortable in a design review and a 1:1—you bring the same rigor to both
- You think in systems: architecture, interfaces, team structure, and delivery dependencies, not just tickets
- You hold a high bar without creating drag—you know when to push and when to get out of the way
- You execute: you drive projects to completion, make decisions under uncertainty, and actively resolve ambiguity before it becomes drift
- You communicate crisply with engineers, operators, and leadership, without losing technical truth
- You're energized by platform work: building foundations that others build on, and getting the interfaces right
