• Lead a high-performing mobile team: Manage a team of 4 to 7 iOS or Android engineers embedded in a cross-functional accounting squad. Nurture their growth, remove blockers, and create the conditions for them to do their best work. • Own your squad's success end-to-end: Work hand-in-hand with Product Managers and Designers to define strategy, shape the roadmap, and ship features that make a real difference for SMEs and accountants — from invoicing and bookkeeping to expense management and tax workflows. • Drive engineering excellence on mobile: Set the bar for code quality, architecture, and mobile best practices across your team — from Swift/Kotlin fundamentals to CI/CD and automated testing. • Build for scale: Hire top mobile talent, foster a collaborative and inclusive team culture, and actively break silos between iOS, Android, and backend disciplines. • Champion your engineers: Give regular feedback, run 1:1s, facilitate growth reviews, and advocate for your team's visibility — internally and externally.

• Build and lead the Cloud Optimization Engineering function • Influence decisions across engineering teams regarding cost drivers • Act as a translator between engineering, finance, and leadership • Own the company’s approach to cloud cost visibility and optimization • Identify and drive opportunities to improve efficiency • Establish scalable frameworks for cost allocation and detection • Build and lead a team focused on cloud optimization and cost-aware systems

• You’ll be working closely with Product and Marketing to shape, build, and learn from growth initiatives that drive acquisition, conversion, and retention. • Build and ship growth features end-to-end as a hands-on contributor (roughly 50% of the role), primarily using React and TypeScript, alongside the team. • Line-manage a small group of Growth Engineers, supporting delivery, coaching, and ongoing development through regular feedback and clear expectations. • Lead the technical execution of growth initiatives: shaping experiments, scoping work, sequencing delivery, and keeping the team aligned on outcomes. • Partner closely with Product, Marketing, and Design to turn growth hypotheses into shippable experiments and learn quickly from results. • Set and uphold standards for code quality, experimentation, analytics, and maintainability across the growth codebase. • Act as the connective tissue for the team: removing blockers, resolving trade-offs, and ensuring knowledge, ownership, and context are shared rather than siloed.
