What We're Looking For

  • At least 3 years of engineering management experience driving product and business outcomes, including managing multiple teams and other managers.
  • Strong hands-on engineering skills, with backend architecture and design experience and the ability to assess technical trade-offs.
  • Proficiency in TypeScript or Python, with experience using React, AWS, and MongoDB.
  • Experience scaling teams and guiding technical decisions in a startup or high-growth environment.
  • Ability to communicate technical decisions in terms of business outcomes and align cross-functional partners.
  • Background in education technology or related learning and teaching fields, with an interest in applying AI.
  • Willingness to travel for periodic company retreats and business needs.
