  • Triaging customer support and user tickets and building a relationship with those teams

  • Balance concrete and immediate use cases with longer term technical strategy

  • Helping resolve interpersonal conflicts

  • Coaching engineers and guiding their career growth


  • What You’ll Need:
  • A history of leading software teams

  • Has been part of a team that shipped code

  • Asks good questions

  • Cares about people

  • Can understand and explain software architecture

  • A history of success supporting, hiring, and advocating for under-represented groups
