• Running Daily Standups & Retrospectives: Facilitating continuous alignment and helping the team reflect on how to improve their processes.
• Sprint Reviews: Representing the team's accomplishments and deliverables at the end-of-sprint review meetings.
• Team Metrics & KPIs: Tracking and reporting on team health and delivery performance (e.g., velocity, cycle time, burndown charts).

Strategy & Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Product Owner Partnership: Collaborating with the Product Owner (PO) to align on product priorities, roadmap feasibility, and defining upcoming work.
• Cross-Team Design Sessions: Participating in architectural and design alignments with leaders across the backend, device, and in-reality teams to ensure technical cohesion.

Support & Escalation Management

• Production Escalations: Serving as the point person for managing and resolving high-priority production issues and outages.
• Support-to-Engineering Pipeline: Working with the Support team to triage, prioritize, and transition escalations from Zendesk into actionable Jira tickets.

Requirements

• Education: Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Leadership Experience: 2+ years of experience directly managing and mentoring Software Engineers (including 1-on-1s, performance reviews, and career development).
• Technical Background: 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a strong foundation in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) and architectural design patterns.

• Multi-Stack Familiarity: Experience managing engineering teams working across diverse tech stacks (familiarity with environments like .NET, Java, Python, or JavaScript/Node.js is a plus).
• Cloud & Infrastructure: Hands-on experience or strong working knowledge of cloud hosting services (specifically AWS), containerization (Docker), and modern CI/CD pipelines.
• Modern Agile Mastery: Deep understanding of Agile/Scrum methodologies, with a proven track record of using team metrics (e.g., velocity, cycle time) to optimize delivery.
• Cross-Functional Capabilities: Experience partnering closely with Product Owners and managing/collaborating with QA resources to ensure high-quality releases.

• Problem Solving: Analytical and detail-oriented with decisive judgment and strong escalation management skills.
• Communication: Exceptional communication skills with the ability to translate technical concepts for cross-functional stakeholders (Backend, Device, Support, etc.).
