Role
Who you are
- Have 7+ years of engineering leadership experience, including managing managers and scaling multi-team orgs in complex product environments
- Have 4+ years of hands-on engineering experience building production systems across the stack—APIs, infra, and user-facing features
- Have led teams owning key business surfaces like pricing infrastructure, onboarding flows, billing systems, or extensibility
- Are comfortable with fullstack web tech: JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Node and can contribute meaningfully to technical discussions
- Have experience driving growth outcomes through experimentation, product-led monetization, or retention-focused work
- Have built and scaled developer platforms or SDKs, and understand the balance between flexibility and guardrails
- Have managed distributed teams and know how to build context, trust, and speed across geographies. Understanding how to manage well in a remote-first team is an extremely critical need for this role
- Understand how to grow leaders, coach emerging EMs, and run an org that scales with clarity and care
- Operate with urgency and product intuition and aligning technical work tightly with business impact
- Care about team health and inclusion, and invest in building a strong, resilient engineering culture
What the job involves
- Reporting to the VP of Engineering,
- Provide hands-on technical leadership by staying close to the codebase and deeply understanding system architecture. While you won’t be expected to ship code regularly, you’ll need to contribute meaningfully to technical discussions and design reviews
- Embrace a learning mindset. You’re not expected to know everything, but humility and curiosity are essential for success in this role
- Lead engineering initiatives across critical areas including AI onboarding, growth experiments, extensibility APIs, marketplace development, and subscription infrastructure
- Drive end-to-end execution and delivery of major growth levers such as the AI Site Builder, pricing platform, developer ecosystem, and tools for freelancers and agencies
- Collaborate closely with Product to improve monetization, reduce churn, and grow the third-party ecosystem
- Own cross-functional platform surfaces like the dashboard, onboarding flows, and internal APIs, ensuring cohesive user and developer experiences
- Set architectural direction for new products, including Designer APIs and the billing platform, balancing scalability with product velocity
- Foster strong partnerships with product managers and engineering managers, while mentoring and supporting emerging leaders across the organization
- Maintain high velocity and execution quality, while investing in the long-term health and stability of our core platform
Our take
No-code development systems allow users to create and publish the kind of output that was once only possible with the help of a team of developers. Webflow is one such platform that allows non-developers to create professional websites without knowing any code. It joins others such as Pantheon, Weebly, Squarespace, and Wix in a hotly-contested low-code development market. While competition is high, so too is demand, with low-code platforms accounting for more than 65% of application development activity in 2024.
The popularity of platforms such as Webflow is perhaps not surprising, as low-code development is usually cheaper for companies to implement and reduces time to market. Webflow has been used by over 3.5 million designers and teams to create sites for companies including enterprise brands such as Dell, Rakuten, UpWork, and Petal. It raised a large amount of funding in a Series C round in 2022. This is being used to further develop its platform, with a longer-term goal of pivoting to providing a no-code tool not only for websites, but software development as well.
