Key Skills for This Role
PythonRubyJavaScriptTypeScriptRailsFlask
Responsibilities
- Build, grow, and lead the engineering team, set the technical bar, and own what ships to production.
- Develop the next set of technical leads, and run hiring, onboarding, and the co op program end to end.
- Keep delivery predictable by managing to outcomes and sprint completion rather than story points, and protect the team from churn and micromanagement.
- Own the roadmap for our NLP pipelines, working a steady loop of better quality, then lower cost, then faster inference.
- Bring infrastructure cost and inference time down by evaluating serverless and edge options, and own cloud and tooling vendor decisions.
- Get the team using frontier AI coding tools every day, and set up ways for non technical colleagues to contribute through AI.
- Run the Architecture Review Board and make the big system design calls, setting clear boundaries and strong observability.
- Protect a standing buffer for tech debt and research, and keep the codebase and internal tooling healthy.
- Own estimates and scoping for new work, keeping scope simple and being clear up front about whether something is product or custom.
- Partner with Product and Data & AI to turn clinical and business needs into solid backend work.
- Own data ingestion and integration work for enterprise clients, and step into client technical conversations and data work when needed.
- Manage shared delivery timelines, raise risks early with a plan to resolve them, and keep compliance reporting (such as SR&ED and IRAP) on track.
Requirements
- 6+ years of engineering experience with at least 2 years of leadership experience recently leading and growing agile engineering teams.
- Prior working experience in a product led tech company is highly valued.
- Hands on across a modern stack (Python, Ruby, JavaScript/TypeScript) and frameworks (Rails, Flask, Angular, Vue.js).
- Solid command of Linux, Kubernetes, Docker, and CI/CD, with experience tuning real infrastructure on a major cloud (Azure, AWS, or Cloudflare).
- Experience putting Generative AI into products and running NLP, machine learning, or analytics pipelines, plus daily use of AI development tools.
- Comfortable across multi database setups (PostgreSQL, Clickhouse, Elasticsearch, Redis).
- A bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
- Strong communicator who can align a room on a complex system and explain it just as well to non engineers.
- A genuine collaborator who works shoulder to shoulder with the team and across functions.
