  • Champion engineering excellence through code quality, automated testing, security, observability, and operational best practices.
  • Ensure timely delivery of high-quality software with strong attention to scalability, reliability, performance, maintainability, and security.
  • Promote Agile development practices and continuously improve team processes and delivery effectiveness.
  • Identify risks early, remove blockers, and proactively mitigate challenges impacting delivery or team productivity.
  • Keep teams aligned with long-term product and platform strategy while effectively managing near-term commitments.
  • Understand business objectives and ensure engineering decisions support company goals and customer outcomes.
  • Lead by example through technical credibility, sound judgment, and a solutions-oriented mindset.
  • Demonstrate excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

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.
