  • Collaborate with product and business leaders to align technology with strategic goals.
  • Foster a culture of energy, innovation, and continuous improvement.
  • Coach and mentor senior engineers and tech leads to grow future leaders
About You
  • A proven engineering leader from a tech-focused environment.
