What you'll do
You thrive at the intersection of hands-on technical leadership and people: management — you're equally comfortable in a design review and a 1:1 conversation about career growth
You believe great managers unblock their teams by being technically credible, not by staying out of the code
You've built and shipped production AI systems and know what it takes to take: an agentic workflow from prototype to enterprise reliability
You're energized by ambiguity: you can take a fuzzy business need from a VP of Sales and turn it into a concrete engineering roadmap
You care about building an inclusive, high-trust team where engineers grow: and do the best work of their careers
Lead, hire, and develop a team of 4–7 senior engineers across the full GTM AI: systems stack — setting a high bar for technical excellence, collaboration, and delivery
What they're looking for
- Stay hands-on: contribute to system architecture, participate in code and design reviews, pair with engineers on complex problems, and own critical technical decisions for the team's most impactful systems
- Own the engineering roadmap for GTM AI systems: partnering with Sales Ops, BizTech, Finance, Legal, and GTM leadership to set priorities, define milestones, and communicate progress
- Drive delivery of AI-first GTM systems: agentic AI pipelines, LLM orchestration layers, Salesforce CPQ integrations, real-time Slack applications, and AWS event-driven architectures
- Champion engineering quality: establish and uphold standards for code review, testing, observability (distributed tracing, alerting, SLAs), incident response, and documentation
