Description

  • Lead the technical delivery of a 12-engineer team to deliver high-impact business and customer outcomes.
  • Shape technical direction and partner with Product Management on critical company-wide objectives.
  • Own large, ambiguous technical and product problems with company-wide impact.
  • Write code hands-on and implement the most critical, complex, and foundational system components.
  • Influence roadmaps across organizations and help break down silos in technical decision-making.

Requirements

  • BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science or a related technical field involving coding, or equivalent technical experience.

  • Experience leading technical work across team boundaries and influencing org-level decisions.
  • Ability to work in a virtual-first environment.
  • Preferred: experience working on a consumer-facing product onboarding flow on web.
  • Expected participation in on-call rotations for teams operating services that use them.

Benefits

  • Canada pay range of $204,900 to $277,200 CAD.
  • Opportunity to work on high-impact, company-wide product and platform initiatives.
