About the role

About the Role

Lead and grow multiple product engineering teams at a mission-driven K-12 education technology company. Reporting to the CTO, you will guide product engineering strategy and help schools improve how they plan schedules for teachers and students.

What You'll Do

  • Own multiple engineering teams and drive product delivery across scheduling, reporting, and elementary school experiences.
  • Stay hands-on early through coding, code reviews, and pairing, with an expected initial balance of roughly half coding and half leadership that shifts toward leadership over time.
  • Make and guide architectural decisions that support a robust, scalable platform.
  • Partner with product and other cross-functional teams to set goals and align engineering priorities with business outcomes.
  • Deliver valuable product improvements ahead of the annual school scheduling season, including AI-enabled capabilities.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 3 years of engineering management experience, including managing multiple teams and scaling teams; experience managing other managers is valuable.
  • Strong backend architecture and design skills, with the ability to assess trade-offs and remain hands-on.
  • Experience with TypeScript or Python, AWS, and MongoDB; familiarity with React is also relevant.
  • Experience in K-12 education technology or related learning and teaching fields, with a track record of connecting technical decisions to product and business outcomes.
  • Comfort working in a fast-growing environment with ambiguity and cross-functional responsibilities.
  • Ability to travel for company retreats and occasional business trips.
