Lead Engineer

Lead Engineer: The Person Who Makes the CEO Uncomfortable (In a Good Way) The honest pitch: We have a team of great engineers - including the CEO himself.. They know it. You need to know it too — because your job is to be better. Not louder. Not more credentialed. Better. The kind of better that makes him second-guess his first instinct and thank you for it later. What you'll actually do: Own the architecture before the problem becomes a crisis Spot the bad abstraction everyone else is too polite to name Keep a high-shipping team from accidentally building a house of cards Tell the CEO \"that's wrong\" with enough clarity that he listens — and enough tact that he doesn't sulk You're probably right for this if: You've seen what \"move fast\" looks like at 3x the scale — and survived it You have opinions about systems and the business logic that drives them You'd rather fix the root cause than heroically fix the symptom every Thursday night You're wrong for this if: You lead with your LinkedIn title You think \"tech debt\" is someone else's problem You need a calm, politically safe environment (we like you, but this isn't that) The bottom line: We're not hiring a manager of engineers. We're hiring the engineer who makes every other engineer — including the CEO — think harder.

Think that's you? Prove it.
