  • Drive scaled hiring, performance management, and career growth for the Product Engineering team
  • Report on delivery health, velocity, risks, and escalations to senior leadership
  • Champion adoption and experimental scale of Lantern’s AI-assisted SDLC tooling and practices within your pods

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
  • 10+ years of software engineering experience, including 4+ years leading engineering managers or senior technical leads
  • Track record of standing up or restructuring engineering teams around new delivery models, such as pod-based or iterative, loop-based development
  • Deep experience partnering with Product and QA to ship complex, customer-facing software at scale
  • Strong technical judgment across modern architecture, cloud infrastructure, and CI/CD practices
  • Experience operating in a regulated or healthcare-adjacent environment is a plus

Strong Candidates Will:

  • Move fast without sacrificing quality, balancing urgency with sound engineering judgment
  • Communicate clearly and directly with both engineers and executive stakeholders
  • Have built or scaled pod-based engineering structures from the ground up with direct connection to the business for rapid, iterative development
  • Coach engineering managers, not just individual contributors
  • Bring a builder’s mindset to process, comfortable defining how a new team should work rather than just executing an existing playbook

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
