• Continue contributing technically where appropriate, especially in design and code review.
• Help define and improve team processes for estimation, sprint planning, and delivery.
• Support hiring efforts by participating in interviews and onboarding new developers.
• Foster a culture of collaboration, inclusivity, and continuous learning.

What You'll Bring:

• 5+ years of experience working as a software developer
• 1+ years of experience managing people
• Previous experience as a Senior Developer or Staff Developer, ideally with exposure to mentoring or leading small initiatives.
• Familiarity with cloud-native SaaS applications (AWS, React, Node.js, GraphQL, etc. preferred).
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• Passion for helping others grow and learning people management skills. A passion for software development and eagerness to get into the code if needed
• The ability to hit the ground running and provide immediate impact with minimal oversight
• A track record of building and managing high performing engineering teams
