Lead engineering teams to deliver AI-powered products with accountability for business outcomes and cost-efficient scalability.
7+ years engineering experience with 3-5 years management, hands-on AI system building, and strong financial/product intuition.
Job Description: • Own delivery and business outcomes for AI-powered product initiatives, with accountability for ARR impact, adoption, and capital efficiency. • Lead and grow an engineering team with a focus on output, leverage, and sustainable pace, not headcount growth for its own sake. • Partner closely with Product, Finance, and GTM to prioritize work based on revenue potential, customer value, and cost-to-serve. • Drive features that unlock new revenue, expansion, and retention, while improving unit economics. • Guide architectural decisions with a strong bias toward cost-aware scalability, especially for AI workloads (inference, training, data pipelines). • Establish engineering practices that maximize engineering ROI, shorter cycle times, fewer handoffs, and predictable delivery. • Make disciplined tradeoffs to hit market windows while avoiding long-term cost or maintenance drag. • Track and improve key metrics such as cost per feature, infrastructure spend vs. usage, and revenue per engineering dollar. • Stay technically engaged through design reviews and selective hands-on work, especially where cost, risk, or scale are involved. • Build a culture of ownership, accountability, and financial awareness across the team. • Takes on additional responsibilities and projects as needed to support the success of the team and organization. Requirements: • 7+ years of software engineering experience, with 3 to 5+ years in engineering management roles • Experience leading teams in capital-conscious, high-growth environments. • Proven ownership of customer-facing products tied to revenue and margin outcomes. • Hands-on experience building and operating AI-enabled systems with real cost constraints. • Strong product and financial intuition, you can reason about tradeoffs between growth, cost, and long-term leverage. • Track record of delivering under aggressive timelines without over-hiring or over-engineering. • Comfort partnering with Product and Finance to make prioritization decisions grounded in ROI. • Sufficient technical depth to guide architecture, challenge assumptions, and make sound cost/performance tradeoffs. Benefits: • Generous Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage for full-time employees • Flexible time off • 401k to help you save for the future • Fun events at cool locations • Free DoorDash lunches on Fridays • Employee referral bonuses to encourage the addition of great new people to the team
