About the Role
The Company is seeking a VP of Engineering to lead and scale its high-performing engineering organization. The successful candidate will be responsible for setting and executing a bold multi-year technical vision that aligns with the company's long-term strategy. This role requires a leader with a strong technical foundation, at least 5 years' experience leading large engineering teams, and a proven track record in driving operational excellence and product delivery. The VP of Engineering will be a key member of the senior leadership team, influencing both tactical and strategic decisions, and will be expected to have a deep appreciation for balancing product delivery with long-term technical investments. Candidates for the VP of Engineering position at the company should have a minimum of 10 years' of industry experience, with a preference for those who have worked in technology-first companies delivering direct-to-consumer experiences that leverage data science. The role demands a passion for engineering operations, a strong focus on team health, and the ability to attract, develop, and retain top-tier engineering talent. Executive-level communication skills are essential, as is the ability to align stakeholders across technical and business domains. The ideal candidate will have a proven ability to evaluate and integrate emerging technologies and experience in supporting data science efforts through ML engineering and MLOps. The company is dedicated to building a diverse and inclusive workplace and encourages all candidates who are excited about the role to apply, even if their experience does not align perfectly with every qualification.
