This is a high-impact leadership role at the heart of a fast-scaling product organization building end-to-end platforms that simplify how digital products are created and shipped. You will lead a fully remote, globally distributed engineering team while staying deeply hands-on in architecture, coding, and technical problem-solving. The role blends technical depth with strategic leadership, requiring you to shape engineering culture, delivery standards, and system robustness in a high-velocity startup environment. You will work closely with senior leadership, product, security, and customer-facing teams to align engineering execution with business and user needs. With significant ownership over architecture, team development, and delivery performance, you will directly influence product quality, scalability, and security. This is an environment built for builders who thrive in ambiguity, move fast, and enjoy solving complex technical challenges while mentoring others.
