You'll look for opportunities to incubate new ideas, create experiments, and share recommendations with the broader engineering organization. You will be data-driven, establish clear and representative metrics by which we can measure the performance and health of our products, and help your team look around corners for both business opportunities as well as managing operational risks.

You will be accountable for growing and developing your team, both through diverse hiring as well as coaching and mentoring the individuals on your team to improve their professional and technical skills.

What you’ll do:

• Work directly with engineers, product managers, UX designers, and stakeholders, to scope, plan, and deliver projects.
• Partner with senior technical leaders and business stakeholders to develop a technical strategy and product roadmap.
• Define and drive key performance and technical metrics, and communicate progress to a broad set of stakeholders across multiple disciplines.
• Build realistic and efficient agile project plans, align across partner teams, proactively identify risks, and develop risk mitigation strategies.
• Identify, define, and drive key investments in improving quality and development efficiency (i.e. quality, testing, engineering best practices, etc.).
• Build a strong engineering team through coaching, mentoring, hiring, performance management, and retaining and supporting our top talent.

What we’re looking for:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or similar discipline.
• 8+ years of relevant engineering experience.
• 3+ years of relevant management experience.
• Strong technical expertise in native and cross-platform mobile development (iOS, Android, React Native, etc.).
• Solid people management experience, including hiring, career development, mentoring, and performance management.
• Proven experience leading teams using agile methodologies like Scrum and Kanban.
• Experience leading remote and distributed teams.
• Excellent communication skills for both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Demonstrated ability to work with high independence in situations where business problems and technology strategies may not yet be defined.
• Experience with Git or similar distributed version control systems.
• Experience with Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) and automated testing frameworks.

Bonus points:

• Experience in experimentation and feature flag systems (e.g. Optimizely, Firebase, or similar).
• Experience with Kotlin Multiplatform.
• Interest in building solutions that support our engaged Zwift Community of cyclists, runners, and fitness enthusiasts.
