Requirements - Lead technical direction for the data and insights platform, including backend services, APIs, data workflows, and AI-assisted product capabilities. - Deliver hands-on features, especially where backend, data, and product experience overlap. - Provide technical leadership for a distributed engineering team. - Clarify planning and delivery tradeoffs across product priorities, stakeholder needs, engineering capacity, and technical sustainability. - Improve product trust, data quality, reliability, and usability. - Partner with product and design so scope, acceptance criteria, and tradeoffs are clear before work enters development. - Help make the product platform easier to adopt for internal teams and easier to evaluate for external clients. - Partner with the ML engineer to turn AI and ML work into production-quality product capabilities. - Partner with the full-stack engineer to connect frontend polish with backend feasibility and data constraints. - Help leadership make better investment decisions by translating engineering work into business outcomes. Benefits - This position is fully remote. - Full Time – Exempt. - Anticipated Base Salary: $100,000 - $185,000 (this position is bonus eligible). - Medical, Dental, Vision, Life, Short-Term & Long-Term Disability Insurance + FSA, HSA, and more. - 401k Employer Match after meeting eligibility requirements. - 14 Paid Holidays. - Unlimited PTO. - Paid Parental Leave.
