Job summary

Jane is actively seeking a Director of Engineering to lead the Dev Acceleration team. In this remote-first, founder-led SaaS environment, you will work closely with developers to explore AI approaches that accelerate product delivery and improve software quality.

You will shape how we measure progress, communicate change clearly, and mentor a small, senior team to bring transformative AI-enabled practices to production across the organization.

Qualifications

• You understand the active code-writing problem and what developers on product teams face day to day, because you have worked close to the code yourself.
• You have led this kind of transformation for development work before, and held or raised the quality bar while doing it.
• You are a strong communicator with a software evangelist's energy and real experience leading organizational change.
• You are a strong collaborator who can set a team up for deep, real enablement with product teams.
• You are a pragmatic operator who gets into the weeds of measuring progress and defining success, then fits it into a strategy that lands.

Responsibilities

• Lead and coach a small, senior team of engineers who explore new AI approaches on their own, then come back together to build.
• Champion AI-assisted development across engineering, bringing teams along with clear and honest communication.
• Partner with developers across Jane to understand how they write code today, so every experiment solves a real problem for them.
• Shape how we measure progress, so we move faster without lowering the quality bar.
• Connect the people across Jane who are already experimenting with AI, so what one person learns helps everyone.
