• Champion diversity, equity, and inclusion in hiring, team practices, and day-to-day interactions.
• Drive team rituals such as standups, retrospectives, demos, and knowledge shares that strengthen alignment and engagement.
• Recognize and celebrate wins, and create space for the team to learn from setbacks.

QA Oversight

• Provide leadership and direction over QA activities supporting the Salesforce platform.
• Partner with QA engineers, or a partnering QA team, to ensure appropriate test coverage across unit, integration, regression, and UAT.
• Champion test automation and shift-left practices within the engineering team.
• Set quality expectations, review key quality metrics, and drive continuous improvement in release reliability.
• Ensure root cause analysis is performed on production issues and preventative measures are implemented.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner with Product, Sales Ops, Revenue Ops, Marketing, and Customer Support to translate business needs into technical solutions.
• Communicate technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders and executive leadership.
• Manage project priorities, timelines, and resource allocation across competing demands.
• Advocate for the engineering team's needs and represent their work to the broader organization.

Vendor, Offshore & Partner Management

• Manage a blended workforce of FTEs, onshore contractors, and offshore vendor pods; set clear SLAs, throughput expectations, and quality bars for every pod.
• Participate in vendor selection, statement-of-work scoping, and ongoing performance governance; hold partners accountable to commitments.

• Optimize the onshore/offshore mix to hit velocity and cost targets without compromising quality or security.

We're Excited if this is You

• A hands-on engineering leader who sets technical direction and still understands the work deeply enough to guide it.
• A people-first manager who develops talent, builds trust, and creates high-performing teams.
• A pragmatic decision-maker who balances quality, speed, and cost without losing sight of the customer.
• A clear communicator who can move easily between technical detail and executive conversation.
