This engine fuels the real-time insights and automation that enable sales and marketing teams to move faster and smarter.
In this role, you’ll lead a team of talented backend engineers to design, develop, and operate distributed systems that scale with millions of requests per day.

- Set technical direction and priorities for the S2A Engine, helping your team make thoughtful architectural decisions using technologies like TypeScript, NestJS, MongoDB, and Confluent Cloud.
- Drive execution of key projects, balancing roadmap delivery with engineering best practices, such as clean code, testing, observability, and CI/CD.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, TPMs, and stakeholders to define goals, clarify requirements, and ensure alignment.
- Promote a healthy engineering culture, encouraging curiosity, ownership, innovation, and continuous learning.
- Recruit and onboard new talent, ensuring a smooth and inclusive team experience.
What you will bring:
- 2+ years of engineering management experience, including direct mentorship and performance management of engineers.
- 6+ years of hands-on software engineering experience, preferably with modern backend stacks such as TypeScript, Node.js, and NestJS.
- Proven ability to design and operate large-scale distributed systems, ideally in a SaaS or product-driven environment.
- Experience working with databases like MongoDB and streaming technologies like Kafka or Confluent Cloud.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills—you can translate between technical and non-technical audiences with ease.
- A collaborative, pragmatic mindset with a bias toward action and delivering customer value.
