Write and ship code for approximately 10 to 20 percent of your time, staying connected to the team's engineering work.
Partner with Product Managers and Technical Leads on priorities, architecture decisions, and cross-functional alignment.
Support effective onboarding and maintain clear documentation and ownership boundaries.

At least 8 years of software engineering or engineering management experience, with a progressive path from hands-on engineering into senior technical or management roles.
Experience managing engineers directly, including hiring and performance management, and a background overseeing teams of approximately 9 to 10 engineers.
Recent experience shipping production software and coding as an engineering manager, including strong hands-on TypeScript skills.
Significant backend engineering experience and familiarity with technologies such as Node.js, React, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, AWS, and Docker.
Experience applying AI tools in engineering workflows and familiarity with AI product development practices such as evaluation, experiment design, and dataset curation.
