Team Lead, Ecosystems
About the role
Lead the Ecosystems team responsible for PACS integrations and new access control capabilities, manage partner relationships, and guide both integration delivery and new product development.
Responsibilities
- Hire, manage, and grow a team of backend and integration engineers, and set a high bar for ownership of production systems.
- Split the team's capacity between integration delivery and new product development, and rebalance as priorities shift.
- Stay hands-on: review designs, unblock hard debugging, and write code where it moves the team fastest.
- Own the PACS integration roadmap with product: which partners to add, which capabilities to deepen, and what it takes to keep existing integrations reliable.
- Set up the operating model for integrations in production: monitoring, on-call, partner escalation paths, and regression testing against partner releases.
- Define the architecture and milestones for new access control capabilities, from device communication and credential management to the cloud services and APIs behind them.
- Be the primary engineering contact for PACS and hardware partners, from technical scoping through joint roadmap planning.
- Negotiate API access, SDK support, test hardware, and escalation commitments, and hold partners to them.
- Represent Ambient.ai in partner technical reviews and joint customer escalations, and bring what you learn back into our product strategy.
Qualifications
- Deep experience with access control systems, from software or hardware perspectives.
- 6+ years in software engineering, including 2+ years managing engineers or leading a team as a tech lead with people responsibilities.
- Track record of shipping and operating integrations with third-party systems, and building something new from an early, ambiguous starting point.
- Experience owning technical relationships with external partners: scoping joint work, negotiating access and support, and resolving escalations without harming the relationship.
- Strong backend and distributed systems judgment, including systems that span customer-site hardware and the cloud.
- Clear communication with engineers, product leaders, partner executives, and customers.

About Ambient.ai
AI company transforming enterprise physical security to prevent…
Ambient.ai is a computer vision intelligence company transforming enterprise security operations to prevent security incidents before they happen. The Ambient.ai platform applies AI and computer vision intelligence to existing sensor and camera infrastructure to deliver continuous physical security monitoring and automate the immediate dispatch of human resources. Ambient.ai is the first platform that goes beyond basic motion detection and image recognition to achieve near-human perception with automated situational context. With physical security incidents on the rise and physical security organizations left under-resourced, Ambient.ai’s computer intelligence platform comes at a time of critical need, which is why the company has raised over $50 million from venture capital investors led by a16z. Today, large enterprises, schools and organizations – including many of the largest US tech companies and other Fortune 500 companies – use Ambient.ai to secure property, people, and assets from the most harrowing physical security threats. The company was founded in 2017 by experts in artificial intelligence from Stanford who previously built iconic products at Apple, Google, Microsoft and Dropbox. We are backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), SV Angel, Y Combinator, and visionary angels like Jyoti Bansal, Mark Leslie and Elad Gil.
