• Participate and lead horizontal engineering activities, such as hiring, onboarding and performance management

What you bring:

• Extensive experience managing engineering teams, particularly in an integration-driven business.
• Strong leadership skills with a focus on team efficiency and collaboration.
• A proven track record in API development and scalable platform design.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities.

What Is It Like to Work Here?

We are distributed and work mostly asynchronously. You will have the trust and freedom to shape your work around your life, and vice versa. This could mean taking a break during the day to go to the gym or pick up your kids from school. In other cases, it might mean having a late evening call to meet with colleagues in different time zones.

Remote is a hyper-growth company. We optimize for impact and act with intensity and care. Please check out our Impact Manifesto and What It Means to Work at Remote to learn more. People who thrive at Remote demand a lot from themselves and others, communicate exceptionally well, and can do a lot with a little.
