Desirable

• Within the first year in this role, you will:
• Be in charge of aligning the development and product release activities of one or more teams
• Be responsible for helping engineering teams identify and eliminate roadblocks in order to stay on track with their delivery of objectives and key results
• Be responsible for summarizing status and dependencies between deliverables

• Lead new strategic initiatives for improving the operational efficiency of engineering teams within Signaloid
• Lead and mentor other engineering project coordinators across cross-functional roles

• 1) All positions require you to write a brief cover letter that should be no more than one page long. The more concise the better. You can also substitute the cover letter for a snippet of code that will run on the signaloid.io platform; be creative! We use the cover letter / code snippet to screen for communication skills, as clear communication is essential in a remote working environment
• 2) Applicants who pass the cover letter screening receive an initial 15-minute Zoom screening call with the CEO/CTO
• 3) Applicants who pass the screening interview will be given a coding project that can be solved using the Free Tier of Signaloid's Signaloid Cloud Developer Platform. We will also provide you with additional free credits on the Signaloid Cloud Developer Platform
• The coding exercise will be simple enough to complete in a few hours. You will however have a time window of one week or two weeks (your choice) to complete the coding exercise. You are encouraged to make your implementation open source on GitHub
• 4) Applicants who successfully complete the coding exercise are invited for a set of interviews with people from our core teams (there will be up to six interviewers). The interviewers will use the project you completed as a discussion point
• 5) In the final stage, applicants are invited for an on-site (or "virtual on-site") day with members of the team you are interviewing to join. During this day, we will work with you on a hands-on simulation of a real working day solving a task relevant to the position you are applying for, working with your potential future colleagues
