You 

You are deeply experienced in both managing other engineers and building software with an Agile mindset. You care deeply about diversity, growth, and enabling success in others. You will contribute to solutions from inception to deployment, and everything in between. The solutions you and your team build must not only work for Joist today but also support rapid iteration and innovation as we grow. Your work is going to be nothing less than redefining the home renovation industry, and your tool belt is full of tools that assist with software delivery, team growth and development, and more.  

Responsibilities 

Leadership You have the ability to guide a team by example. As a leader on our development team, you are able to instill the values of kindness, quality, and ownership in the people around you and provide feedback on how to improve as a team. 

Teamwork Many of the problems we encounter require insight from many parts of the business. Your ability to coordinate and communicate with your peers both in and out of engineering is essential to our success. 

Delivery Focused You know that a project is only done once it's delivered to customers. You are able to guide your teams to set clear objectives, continuously communicate up-to-date delivery timelines, and remove roadblocks.  

Architecture You have a strong understanding of the building blocks of a robust and scalable system. You are able to dissect business problems into well-designed systems with the help of your engineers. You have the experience to know what to build and the discipline to know what not to do. 

CS Fundamentals You have an understanding of algorithms, data structures, design patterns and data storage technologies. You are able to select the right tool for the right job. 

Passion Hard problems are not solved overnight. It takes a special kind of attitude and hunger to disrupt an entrenched industry. Your passion is what you share with every teammate at Joist. Passion for technology, passion for working as a team, passion for change, and passion for building an industry revolutionizing product. 

Required Skills and Experience 

• 5+ years of experience leading engineers as their direct manager in a product development environment, preferably managing teams that span multiple technology stacks 

• 5+ years of professional industry experience as a software developer working in agile teams 

• A successful record of mentoring and growing other engineers during your years of experience 

• A proven ability to take ownership of software projects, from scoping and estimation all the way to being live in production 

• You know how to join and partner with Product Management to experiment, iterate, and ship fast for customers 

• The ability to communicate clearly and concisely about deeply technical topics in an easy-to-understand way  

• You hold strong opinions about how to build great software and products but are receptive to the views of others; you know when to be flexible and when to hold steady 

• You are an expert in agile software development processes, and know what it takes to operate high performing engineering squads  

Bonus Qualities 

• Direct experience with some of our technical stack: Ruby on Rails, React, iOS (Swift), or Android (Kotlin) 

• Background managing teams in companies with multiple product squads sharing a common platform/infrastructure 

• You hold a degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or in a similar field. While not a requirement, it helps to have a common baseline of understanding of CS principles when working with other technical people.
