What you’ll do

📍Team leads are focussed on delivering excellence in execution. The engineering manager is accountable for delivering projects, prioritizing work for the team, and representing the team’s interests as a point of contact. In people management, the team lead will work with engineering directors to coach and develop the careers of the team members. Holding one on ones, identifying and coaching areas for improvement, and strengthening the team as a whole is important to maintaining a high performing team. The team lead understands the big picture, knows how projects fit into the larger context, and can communicate this to the team. 📍The tech stack is cloud native and largely in Golang. It is microservice oriented and uses a mixture of relational and nonrelational databases.

Would be great if you brought this to the role

📍You bring empathy and supportive leadership. You understand that “responsible for” doesn’t always mean doing the task, but delegating the task to the right person on the team. You are product minded and can help represent the engineering perspective when we create solutions. You have a strong background in software engineering and while you may not code everyday now, you have the knowledge it will take to guide the team. You know how software is put together, how to navigate the challenges, and know how to manage trade offs to deliver a project. Basic project management skills are a bonus. While you may not be running scrum ceremonies, knowing how to break up work and deliver a project as a team is an essential skill.
