• Recruit top-tier engineering talent suited for a high-performance, high-accountability culture.
• Establish clear metrics (delivery, reliability, quality, cost efficiency) and manage teams against them.
• Foster a culture of ownership, urgency, and continuous improvement.
• Takes on additional responsibilities and projects as needed to support the success of the team and organization.
