Hi 👋
Workonomics is partnering with a recently funded B2B SaaS firm whose mission is to help companies break free from vendor lock. Many companies feel their most valuable data is held hostage by large database providers; this product is their way out.
As Head of Engineering, you'll combine your background as an engineer with your more recent experience leading people. You've probably worked in a start-up/scale-up environment before, ideally in a firm where you had exposure to database system design. You're able to bring the best out of engineers, foster a culture of psychological security and are comfortable in front of clients. You see yourself as a coach as well as a manager.
The role:
* Lead a team of 10 engineers
* Develop the firm's technical strategy in collaboration with the C-suite
* Bake in good tech standards and best practices as part of an ongoing drive to level up the engineering culture
* Contribute technically, especially to design/architecture decisions, PoC builds and in technical discussions with clients.
This firm just secured funding for the next 3 years and, with some huge client wins this quarter, has a chance to really accelerate their growth trajectory over the next 9-12 months. It's a very exciting time to be joining.
