You will balance execution, people leadership, and technical oversight. You are not expected to be the primary hands-on contributor, but you must maintain strong technical judgment and credibility.

  • Own team delivery outcomes, including roadmap execution, reliability, and quality.
  • Partner closely with Product and Design to translate business priorities into clear technical plans.
  • Drive cycle planning, estimation, and delivery accountability.
  • Remove blockers and resolve cross-team dependencies.
  • Ensure the team balances speed with long-term maintainability.
  • Maintain visibility into system health, performance, and risk areas.
  • Provide regular 1:1 coaching and actionable feedback to each team member.
  • Conduct performance reviews, career development planning, and growth conversations.
  • Hire, interview, and onboard new engineers as the team scales.
  • Create an environment of psychological safety while maintaining high standards.
  • Coach engineers on ownership, system design, and execution discipline.
  • Address performance issues early and constructively.
  • Escalate risks and communicate tradeoffs clearly to leadership.
  • Contribute to organizational process improvements and engineering culture initiatives.
