  • Oversee implementation and adoption of design systems, ensuring consistency, quality, and efficiency across the logged-out experience
  • Drive operational excellence by defining best practices, optimizing workflows, and introducing tooling that accelerates development without sacrificing quality
  • Manage, mentor, and grow a small but high-impact development team, fostering a culture of technical excellence, ownership, and collaboration
  • Navigate nuance and ambiguity with confidence, guiding the team and stakeholders through complex challenges and competing priorities
Requirements
  • 7+ years of experience in web development, with a focus on building and scaling modern, customer-facing web properties
  • 2+ years of experience leading and managing high-performing development or engineering teams, including hiring, mentoring, and performance management in agile environments
  • Comfortable with coding day-to-day as needed 
  • Proven ability to make architectural decisions for complex web ecosystems, integrating multiple systems and technologies, and clearly communicating those decisions to stakeholders to demonstrate the business value of technical investments
  • Experience implementing and scaling design systems within a large, cross-functional organization
  • Strong collaboration skills, with experience partnering across Product, Design, Marketing, Brand, and Data Science
  • Demonstrated ability to lead in high-ambiguity environments and make sound decisions that balance technical trade-offs with business priorities
  • Deep understanding of accessibility, SEO, localization, performance optimization, and security best practices for web experiences, with familiarity in CMS platforms (e.g., Webflow, AEM), experimentation frameworks, and analytics tools
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience leading development for large-scale marketing or growth-focused websites in a SaaS environment with both PLG and SLG motions
