  • Apply a disciplined contractor/vendor model, defining externalizable work, quality gates, and knowledge transfer while retaining core IP and architecture in-house
  • Advance SDLC automation best practices, including CI/CD, infrastructure as code, testing, release controls, and progressive delivery
  • Embed AI-assisted development through tooling, governance, standards, and productivity measurement

Requirements:

  • Willingness to relocate to Moscow, ID (highly preferred) and lead primarily in person.
  • Strong culture and collaboration skills
  • proven trust-building across Engineering and Product with shared ownership of outcomes.
  • 10+ years building web-based SaaS products

  • Experience leading teams of 20+ engineers, and working with off-shore teams.
  • Deep experience building for enterprise customers, including SSO (SAML/OIDC), RBAC/ABAC, audit logging, compliance, tenant isolation, data governance, and security/procurement workflows.
  • Strong background in data-driven applications (analytics/dashboards), including performance at scale, caching/materialization, data modeling, and metrics correctness.
  • Solid understanding of modern web architectures: React (or equivalent), backend services (Node/Java/Python), and REST/GraphQL APIs
  • strong systems thinking even if not hands-on daily.
  • Proven cloud-native delivery experience (AWS), CI/CD, infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform), and production observability.
  • Track record integrating with HCM/HRIS platforms using SCIM, SSO, webhooks, bulk data exchange, and enterprise security patterns.
  • Ability to design and run an effective engineering operating system: planning, delivery metrics, quality standards, architecture governance, and incident response.
  • Experience scaling teams using a mix of full-time and contract engineers, with strong quality and knowledge-retention practices.
  • Experience driving adoption of AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Copilot-style workflows) with appropriate measurement and guardrails.
  • Excellent written communication across architecture docs, operational runbooks, incident communications, and executive updates.
