What you'll do:
- Lead and grow a high-performing engineering team focused on integrations and platform connectivity.
- Define and evolve a scalable integration architecture that supports multiple types of workflows and external systems.
- Build shared frameworks, APIs, and infrastructure that reduce the marginal cost of future integrations.
- Partner across engineering teams to align on ownership boundaries, shared services, and platform standards.
- Drive clarity in prioritization—partnering with product management to focus on the highest-impact integration opportunities rather than reacting to every request.
- Ensure integrations are observable, reliable, secure, and resilient to external system failures.
- Embed strong discovery and experimentation practices to validate integration opportunities before deep investment.
- Develop engineers through direct coaching, clear expectations, and regular feedback.
What you should have:
- Leadership & Operating Mindset
- Experience managing high-performing engineering teams.
- Strong orientation toward outcomes over output—you care about impact, not activity.
- A clear sense of ownership: you and your team solve problems end-to-end.
- Ability to focus the team on the highest-leverage opportunities and say no when needed.
- Comfort leading through rapid experimentation and iterative learning.
- Track record of shipping small, frequent releases in production environments.
- Encourages the use of modern tooling, including AI-assisted development, to improve engineering velocity and quality.
- Technical Depth (Integrations & Platform Thinking)
- Strong experience with API design and external system integrations.
- Deep understanding of authentication, authorization, and secure system-to-system communication.
- Experience with event-driven systems, webhooks, data synchronization, and distributed reliability patterns.
- Familiarity with the realities of third-party systems (rate limits, versioning, backward compatibility, partial failures).Experience building internal frameworks or platform capabilities that enable other teams.
- Ability to guide architecture and system design without being the primary hands-on contributor.
- Collaboration & Influence
- Proven ability to work across multiple engineering teams with different ownership domains.
- Strong communication skills and comfort aligning stakeholders around trade-offs.
- Experience navigating shared responsibility models and resolving cross-team ambiguity constructively.
What success looks like:
- Integrations measurably improve user workflows and contribute to Expansion outcomes.
- The team consistently delivers small, frequent, high-quality releases.
- We have durable integration frameworks that enable faster development of new connections over time.
- External system failures are handled gracefully, with strong monitoring and fast recovery.
- Cross-team partnerships are strong, with clear ownership and low friction across boundaries.
- The team makes evidence-based decisions and continuously improves how it builds and operates.
