📋 Description

• Set and execute engineering strategy aligned with company goals, product vision, and roadmap. • Lead, mentor, and manage four director-level direct reports across engineering, quality assurance, DevOps, and IT/Cybersecurity. • Build and sustain a high-performing, remote-first engineering culture grounded in our core values, with a strong emphasis on ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement. • Translate product vision and roadmap into executable engineering plans with clear milestones and trade-off decisions. • Ensure engineering decisions proactively enable — rather than constrain — future product possibilities. • Drive adoption of AI-assisted development workflows — including AI coding tools, automated testing, and code review — to measurably improve team velocity and quality. • Provide technical oversight and strategic direction for the company’s data warehouse, including schema design and ETL/ELT pipelines. • Drive a culture of frequent, reliable software delivery while reducing cycle time and deployment friction through CI/CD improvements.

🎯 Requirements

• You embody our core values: Prioritize People, Initiate and Innovate, Lifelong Learning, Creative Collaboration, Purposeful Partnerships and Considered Confidence. • Your career has been spent primarily as a software engineer and engineering leader, building and shipping SaaS products. • You have built or led engineering for educational or training software sold to consumers, schools, districts, or institutions. • You have led teams that ship frequently — in weeks, not quarters — and have actively invested in CI/CD, cycle time reduction, and developer productivity. • You have worked in genuine, sustained partnership with a product lead or Head of Product, jointly managing the speed/quality/sustainability trade-off. • You actively use AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, AI code review, Claude) and have shipped AI/LLM-enabled features into production. • 10+ years of progressive engineering experience, including significant leadership at the director or VP level, managing engineering leaders, and individual contributor who has written production code and can engage deeply in technical design conversations. • Track record leading remote-first engineering teams, including offshore or outsourced contributors across time zones. • Direct experience with edtech products used in schools, districts, or by students and families. • Familiarity with microservices, GraphQL/REST APIs, AWS, and modern CI/CD tooling. • Familiarity with data warehousing concepts, ETL/ELT pipelines, and BI tools. • You are skillful at translating complex technical topics into clear, concise communication for the board, executive leadership, and external stakeholders.
