- Define engineering strategy aligned with company goals.
- Partner closely with Product, Design, Data Science, and executive leadership.
- Improve engineering processes without adding unnecessary bureaucracy.
- Ensure engineering investments align with long-term platform strategy.
- Drive architectural consistency across teams.
- Own organizational planning, staffing, hiring, and succession planning.
- Create an environment where engineers can do their best work.
QUALIFICATIONS
Required
- 10+ years software engineering experience.
- 5+ years engineering management experience.
- Experience managing managers or multiple engineering teams.
- Strong background building large distributed systems.
- Demonstrated technical leadership across complex organizations.
- Proven ability to execute large, cross-functional programs.
- Excellent communication and organizational leadership.
Preferred
- Experience in marketplaces, search, advertising, or machine learning.
