You will play an active part in shaping product strategy based on what's technically possible. You will make sure our company hits our ambitious goals from an engineering standpoint.
You bring a passion for meeting business needs with technically innovative solutions and excel at shifting between the two-understanding how big-picture goals inform technical details, and vice-versa.

Most importantly, you have a track record of past teams who respect you as both a technical leader and manager.
