This profitable organization specializes in providing tools that help advisors and sales representatives optimize their time by automating and streamlining the challenges they face while managing communications and relationships with clients.

  • Facilitate ongoing improvements and testing of Disaster Recovery and Incident Response plans.
  • Conduct regular performance evaluations (OKRs) and provide mentorship to team members, fostering a supportive and high-performance work environment.
  • Ensure adherence to company standards and industry best practices, while identifying and mitigating risks associated with technology operations and product development.

  • Experience scaling up teams and products
  • Experience managing budgets of 5-10M+
  • Ability to have in-depth technical conversations on architecture and implementation
  • A hands-on leader with prior experience in coding, though this role will not involve hands-on development. The ideal candidate should have a solid technical foundation and the ability to guide and understand the work of their team from a technical perspective.
  • Proven experience meeting SOC II Type 2 and ISO27K service principal commitments
  • Experience successfully leading SR&ED claims
