About the Role :

We're looking for a Director, Engineering who can bring their depth and breadth of experience to help us continue to scale while maintaining high standards for efficiency and technical excellence.

This is a senior leadership position that requires strong technical context, a foundation in organizational design and process, but more than anything, leadership fundamentals that allow you to coach, guide and develop your leaders and your organization.

In this role you'll empower your teams to embrace end to end ownership of your products and systems, and work to define a clear vision and strategy for your team to execute on.

A successful leader in this role will develop a strong partnership with Product and Engineering leaders, work to establish a mutual roadmap that carves a path which delivers technical excellence and strong business outcomes.

They are experimental, data driven, know when to take risks and when to build a solid foundation.

This role is for an active leader who is a team and platform builder and someone who can become directly involved in technology decisions while growing the team to support it.

They are experienced in full stack application development and understand the foundations that must be in place to support an enterprise level application.

Here's What You'll be Doing

Vision : Have a deep understanding of Index and its products and processes and stay informed on the latest events in the industry, whether product or technology changes.

Drive initiatives that produce positive outcomes across divisions.

Leadership : We need someone who can help us scale. That means hiring the right people, helping people grow both technically and personally, helping teams improve the way they work, creating a strong sense of ownership at the individual and team level, mentoring junior leaders and identifying and developing new leaders.

We need you to have proven leadership ability and experience leading and managing multiple cross-functional teams and both individual contributors and first-line managers.

Technical : You have a passion for technology, experience developing systems at scale, on multiple tech stacks and love launching as much as you love delivering results.

You develop a technical vision and strategy for your organization and rally your team behind it. You also have experience driving the adoption of technical best practices and leading by example.

Communication : As a leader you need to provide consistent and steady feedback to your team - both positive and constructively critical.

You are transparent with your team, and work to keep stakeholders informed of progress and issues. You can represent your team and communicate accomplishments and challenges outwards.

You communicate well with other senior leaders and can partner to drive collaborative outcomes.

Software Life Cycle : You are expert at delivering major commercial systems in large distributed Agile environments, and understand practices associated with different methodologies and when to use them.

Understanding the spirit of Agile, you'll work with teams and stakeholders to find ways to solve problems, experiment, learn and iterate on solutions without getting stuck on specific practices.

You understand the components of software development, how to manage them and ensure high quality execution.

Experimentation through to Scaling : You understand that the path to finding the best outcomes is by understanding the problem and gathering data on the best solution.

Experimentation should be ubiquitous and inexpensive but building a world class globally distributed system must scale intentionally and with quality and reliability.

Community : While you will have direct ownership and accountability over your product area, you'll be expected to have an impact on Engineering and Index as a whole.

Take a moment to share your experiences at a community Agora, contribute towards improving our best practices, or mentor an engineer from another team.

We strongly believe in supporting each other to make for a better Index Exchange.
