Role
Who you are
- Leadership & Influence: A recognized leader, respected for technical ability, direction-setting, and ability to navigate ambiguity. Leads cross-team initiatives and influences without authority across engineering, product, operations, and medical
- Technical Expertise: recognized as an expert in their domain area but able to operate effectively in other domains when needed
- Execution & Ownership: Owns high-impact, cross-system projects. Drives progress across a domain and ensures delivery on both technical and business outcomes
- Force Multiplier: Uplifts not only engineers but also PMs and designers. Leads by example to raise the bar across disciplines
- Communication & Alignment: Communicates clearly across technical and non-technical audiences. Aligns stakeholders even when goals and definitions are evolving; creates clarity from chaos
- Systems Thinking: Designs scalable solutions with a deep understanding of interconnected systems. Anticipates downstream effects and communicates complex dynamics clearly
- Business Impact: Deeply understands business and operational goals. Connects them to day-to-day technical work, ensuring alignment and measurable outcomes
- Player & Coach: Seamlessly shifts between strategy and execution — no problem too big or small. Equally effective leading execution (e.g., as a pod lead) or through deep technical contributions
- Analytical & Data-Driven: Extracts and analyzes data independently. Synthesizes KPIs and qualitative insights to inform decisions and improve products
- Growth-Oriented: Continuously seeks new challenges and growth. Acts as a multiplier for the team’s impact and helps shape the technical culture
- Bias for Action: Delivers value iteratively, avoiding over-engineering. Breaks down complex problems into shippable steps and balances planning with execution
- 5+ years of experience as a high-impact individual contributor, building and scaling user-facing products in a startup or similarly fast-paced environment
- Proven ability to design and deliver complex, full-stack web applications across both frontend and backend systems
- Strong experience with relational database design and data modeling
- Proficiency with modern web frameworks—React and Ruby on Rails experience preferred
- Familiarity with cloud infrastructure and deployment, especially within AWS
- Comfortable navigating ambiguity, owning technical decisions end-to-end, and aligning solutions with product and operational goals
- Deeply mission-aligned—motivated to build technology that serves individuals facing complex needs such as homelessness, severe mental illness, and substance use disorder

- Set technical direction and architectural standards across projects and pods
- Identify and solve high-leverage technical problems, balancing speed with thoughtful design
