🎯 Requirements

• A director, vice president, or other senior software engineering leader with 15+ years experience managing engineering teams and coaching individuals • Deep engineering leadership experience carries significant weight — coaching certifications are valued but not required. • You have navigated the dynamic of carrying meaningful technical responsibilities while managing a team — and understand what it takes to delegate, prioritize, and lead through others without losing your technical edge. • You have experience leading engineering teams through hypergrowth, rapid organizational change, or the transition from startup to scale — including building functions from scratch and hiring into ambiguity. • You understand how to influence and build credibility across organizational boundaries — working with product, GTM, and executive stakeholders — and can help engineering leaders develop visibility and impact beyond their immediate teams. • Background in AI/ML engineering organizations, infrastructure, security engineering, or developer platforms is a strong plus. • Someone who wants to turn their people leadership skills into meaningful coaching skills. • Passionate about helping people advance in the workplace to build fulfilling careers and lives. • A person who is self aware, who has a high emotional IQ, and who cares about creating a safe space for others to risk being vulnerable. • Excited about growing your coaching skills, and you bring a growth-mindset to the experience, regardless of how long you have been a coach. • Comfortable working in a constantly-changing startup environment. • Able to dedicate a minimum of 12+ hours per month to coaching at Mento for the next 24+ months. • Prior experience at technology companies a plus.
