Full Job Posting
- Hire, Lead, mentor, and grow a high-performing team of product engineers.
- Own the evolution of BackOps core product: the reusable workflow automations customers run their operations on, and the product surface end to end.
- Own the software development lifecycle end to end: architecture and design, code review, testing, release, and what happens in production afterward.
- Drive predictable delivery and raise the engineering quality bar. Be accountable for what ships, when it ships, and how well it holds up.
- Partner with Product and Design in a tight, fast loop. Bring your own product opinions, decide quickly, ship, and measure.
- Work directly with customers and design partners. Their operations change constantly, and the product has to change with them.
- Drive how we plan, evaluate, and improve our AI agents, and build the team's fluency in doing it.
- Champion reliability, safety, and performance of the systems running in live customer environments.
- 5+ years managing engineers, on top of a strong hands-on engineering background.
- Deep grounding in software engineering fundamentals: system design, code quality, testing, and release practice. You can go deep with your engineers on a design decision.
- A track record of shipping quality software predictably, and of raising the engineering standard of a team.
- Strong product and design instincts. You can hold your own in a design review and you bring your own opinions about what the product should do.
- Experience building with LLMs or AI agents in production, and a clear view on how to tell whether they are working.
- A genuine AI-first approach to engineering. You use coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex) in your own workflow and you can teach it.
- Comfortable when requirements evolves and the right answer is not known yet.
- Clear written and verbal communication with engineers, designers, customers, and founders.
- Depth in evals, agent orchestration, multi-agent architectures, or RAG in production.
- Zero-to-one experience: built a product from an idea to product-market fit.
- Built with design partners, where the customer is in the loop weekly.
- Grown a team through a step change in size, and hired well while doing it.
