Responsibilities
Make great engineers better. You’ll support your teammates with individual goal-setting, professional development and mentoring
Make great software. You’ll work with your team and/or multiple teams to ensure you’re delivering maintainable, high-quality, customer-focused products. You will lead your team in design, development, testing, deployment, and operations
Build great teams. You’ll work closely with your peers to hire smart, creative and kind engineers and managers. You’ll be responsible for hiring talented iOS, Android, web, and backend engineers for the team. Also be responsible for interviewing and evaluating manager candidates as part of our broader engineering and product hiring process
Collaborate. You’ll manage dependencies between functional teams and facilitate collaboration. This team builds key features used across our apps, and just as importantly, relies on partnership from other teams to deliver a cohesive customer experience. You will make considerations that serve all of onX’s customers and work closely with Product, Product Design, and your team’s stakeholders to drive aligned outcomes
Leadership. You can drive a project by yourself or direct multiple teams and leaders to a desired outcome. You provide technical thought partnership for your team—shaping architectural direction, influencing long-term technical strategy, and guiding scrappy innovation efforts when the business needs rapid experimentation or creative solutions. You work throughout the organization and help solve problems in all parts of the company
Translate. You’ll translate business strategy, customer insights, and organizational priorities into clear engineering direction, helping your team understand the “why” behind the roadmap and how their work connects to onX’s goals
Communicate. You’ll err on the side of over-communicating. You will help teams work efficiently together. You’ll work closely with the team’s product manager and engineers to set ambitious, but attainable goals and plan a sequence to get from where we are to where we want to be. Communicating and coordinating your team’s goals will be key to successfully working with other teams and moving the company forward together
