What We’re Looking For:

You have demonstrated mentorship skills and set a technical vision to challenge your team in a way that empowers them to have incredible impact.

You lead your team in ensuring services remain healthy and that technical debt is regularly paid down. When issues arise, you lead your team in responding, mitigating, and addressing the issues to learn from them for the future. Organizational Coordinator : You are the first point of contact for your team, your products, and your delivery plan. You foster a collaborative approach to delivery and leverage those relationships to unblock dependencies. You are a strong communicator and collaborator, responsive when issues arise, and celebrate successes by representing your team's achievements to the rest of the organization.

Here's What You Need:

Bachelor’s degree or higher in Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent. Demonstrated leadership and management of 3-10 person teams.
