• Proven track record of scaling an engineering organization from early stage to high-growth, including building and leading teams across multiple disciplines.
• Demonstrated success delivering connected products where hardware and software are tightly integrated, with ownership across architecture, reliability, and lifecycle management.
• Deep expertise in IoT ecosystems, including OTA (Over-the-Air) updates, fleet management, and sensor fusion.
• Experience establishing modern development practices, including CI/CD, automated testing, release management, and metrics-driven delivery.
• A portfolio of shipped products where software and hardware interact seamlessly.
• Strong technical judgment across modern applications and embedded stacks (i.e.React, Node.js, AWS, C/C++), with the ability to evaluate tradeoffs and evolve architectural decisions as the company scales.
