• Lead two high-impact engineering teams through critical initiatives, including the migration of our telephony provider and a foundational AI-enabled sales platform that will shape the future of our business.
• Operate as a strategic peer to Product leadership, shaping roadmaps, generating new ideas, and co-owning outcomes so engineering helps define direction rather than simply executing tickets.
