  • Establish engineering standards: code quality, testing, documentation, security, and operational excellence.

  • Own delivery health: sprint/iteration hygiene, predictable execution, and strong on-call/incident practices.

  • Drive architecture decisions across front-end, back-end (tRPC encouraged), and deployment (Docker + CI/CD).

  • Build a culture of ownership, feedback, and continuous improvement across teams.

Ideal Qualifications

  • 7+ years building software, including 2–4+ years leading teams (EM/Tech Lead/Head of Eng).
