What We're Looking For...


  • 3+ years of experience managing 4+ direct reports in an engineering team
  • Strong background in frontend web development, particularly with React, Next.js, and modern web architecture
  • Comfortable working in PHP/WordPress and navigating legacy systems when needed, reverse engineering, debugging, etc
  • Familiarity with A/B testing, conversion rate optimization, and marketing funnels
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills—you’ll partner closely with business, product, and design
  • Hands-on mindset: you’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves when needed
  • High bias for action, driven, and comfortable in a fast-moving environment
