About the role
Director responsible for delivering Arc platform and Fleet Applications, leading multiple engineering teams (full-stack, front-end, cloud services) to drive product vision for Arc and Robot Operations Center, with a focus on rapid production delivery and data-driven improvement in a hybrid, multi-office environment.
Responsibilities
- Delivery of Arc Platform. Crafting the technical roadmap and commit to dates based on product and customer targets. Lead resource and staffing planning accordingly.
- Multiple teams, one roadmap. A UI team building the on-robot interfaces and the web and mobile experiences, and a cloud services team owning workflow orchestration, resource management, and fleet data aggregation from the edge. Your job is to make them feel like one organization with one set of commitments.
- Technical roadmaps & decision making. Achieve team buy-in and consensus on OSS selection, language and framework choices, service boundaries, API contracts. You bring a point of view, you invite the Principal Architect to disagree with it, and you close the decision so the teams can move.
- Requirements on your upstream dependencies. SOC 2 readiness and the multi-cell and single-tenant deployment architectures come from the Cloud Platform team. You need enough depth to write the requirements they build against and to review their proposals critically, not to accept them on faith.
- New surfaces for the fleet. Applications that let our support engineers diagnose and resolve customer-raised issues remotely, and mobile experiences that let a site leader check on their Digit fleet without sitting at a desk.
- The team itself. Hiring, leveling, performance, and growth for a fully distributed engineering organization.
Qualifications
- You have led multiple engineering teams (managing managers and senior ICs) towards product delivery on a committed timeline, and you can describe what slipped and what you did about it.
- You have taken a product from bespoke or single-customer delivery to a multi-tenant SaaS offering — or done the reverse, standing up single-tenant deployments for enterprise customers who demanded isolation.
- You are technical enough to review an architecture proposal, argue about a language, OSS or tech stack choice on the merits.
- You have worked with mature CI/CD pipelines and Release Engineering teams and processes to accelerate ship cadence as well as software quality for your teams.
- You have managed distributed teams of remote ICs.
- You partner well with Product and TPM counterparts and don't need to own the roadmap to feel ownership of the outcome.
