  • Recruit and build a engineering team with diverse and inclusive culture
  • Coach and guide leaders and engineers in the engineering team

Requirements

  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 8+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python
  • OR equivalent experience
  • Experience building AI Powered productivity or developer tools
  • Deep product judgment—knowing when “good enough” is not good enough
  • Familiarity with largescale evaluation, quality frameworks, and telemetry for AI systems
  • Experience working across Calendar, Mail, or document centric ecosystems
  • 10+ years of professional engineering experience, including 4+ years of engineering management
