About the Role

As a seasoned leader, you will oversee the Marketing Tech engineering team at Thumbtack, driving customer growth and innovation. This interdisciplinary team consists of engineers with diverse skill sets, including frontend, backend, data engineering, and machine learning/optimizations.

  2. Hire and support senior technical leaders to scale the organization and achieve aggressive growth goals across existing and emerging channels.
  3. Partner closely with marketing leads to understand their needs and priorities, and work with engineering, product, design, and analytics teams to craft a compelling vision and long-term strategy for growth.
  4. Set the team up for success in execution, anticipating and planning for infrastructure needs for long-term success. This could include backend systems, machine learning models, frontend infrastructure for excellent page speed, or experimental infrastructure for rapid testing and prototyping of onboarding flows within our native apps.
  5. Collaborate with other engineering leaders to evolve and continually improve Thumbtack's engineering culture in a high-paced growth environment.
