  • Detail-oriented leadership with the ability to act as both product owner and technical program manager

    Responsibilities:

  • Build and lead an engineering team that scales to 12–30 people over the next 18–24 months, including multiple technical leads.

  • Drive delivery of technical innovations and ensure product excellence

  • Communicate roadmap, schedules, and strategic direction across teams and with customers
