Responsibilities:

• Lead a team of software engineers to deliver an end-to-end platform that powers operational teams to plan, configure, build and sell homes.
• Collaborate closely with Product Management and Product Design to define, architect and deliver an end-to-end platform for the homebuilding industry.
• Build an intelligent and automated system to orchestrate the entire home building process from start to finish.
• Leverage ML/AI to build highly efficient workflows for operational teams.
• Evolve the platform architecture to create a responsive and scalable platform that can adapt to evolving business processes and needs.
• Ensure that platform functionality drives key business metric improvements by establishing baselines and analyzing and attributing changing metrics to platform automation and functionality.
• Drive software development timelines by working backwards from delivery of critical functionality to create engineering execution plans with incremental delivery.
• Transparently communicate the status of feature delivery across the company
• Create and measure developer performance and productivity metrics to highlight bottlenecks in the developer workflows.
• Hire, coach, and retain a high performing engineering team. Continuously improve the talent of the team by coaching both top and under performing engineers.
• Work closely with cross-functional teams of product managers, stakeholders, end-users, data scientists, ML experts, engineers, product designers, and product leaders in both day-to-day work and in defining the overarching strategy, vision and roadmap
• Become a subject matter expert on homebuilding and all its inner workings and complexity; you should be just as comfortable problem solving with a director of construction as you are with an engineer .
• Make difficult, high-stakes technical trade-offs to deliver functionality most likely to achieve business goals and meet user needs.
• Identify technical product gaps and collaborate with the engineers to research and define solutions to ensure a rock solid architectural foundation.
• Develop and maintain architectural plans, technical design documents, user stories, and delivery timelines to deliver high-impact features and applications.

Basic Qualifications

• 10+ years of software engineering management and software architecture experience.
• Experience building technology and automation for complex manual or operational workflows.
• Be outcome-oriented by establishing and measuring against operational KPIs to ensure maximum operating impact.
• Player-coach leadership role where you lead senior and junior engineers with a detailed understanding of the code base as well as leading the charge on certain implementation initiatives.
• You are a “full stack technology leader” with a demonstrated ability to plan, manage, and drive projects from beginning to end, including solution definition, architectural designs, scoping, technical documentation, delivery, and maintenance.
• This is an engineering leadership role with regular engagement with end users in the field as well as senior executives. Looking for a no-ego leader with ability to communicate at all levels.
• Willing to travel monthly for in-person working sessions
