Job description

Our technology team is growing, and we want a VP of Engineering who can turn complex requirements into reliable, scalable software. Think $330,000 - $452,000, think full-time hours, think 13 years of Google Cloud turning into ownership you can actually feel at TechInnovate.

Key Responsibilities

• Translate technology compliance rules into MySQL guardrails baked into the build
• Build Team Leadership self-service tools so Hayward teams stop filing tickets for everything
• Contribute to sprint planning, estimation, and technology roadmap discussions
• Prototype rough Vue.js ideas fast, then decide which earn a place in TechInnovate's stack
• Spike a Google Cloud proof of concept fast when TechInnovate needs a yes-or-no answer
• Write the React integration tests that catch regressions before Hayward, CA ships them

What You'll Bring

• Comfort being the newest person in the room and the loudest in the notes
• Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team
• Professionalism, integrity, and discretion with sensitive information
• The kind of listening that makes the other person feel heard
• Comfort owning the unglamorous middle of a full-time project
• Proven PHP results, ideally seasoned in Hayward, CA

What sets TechInnovate apart isn't size but an endlessly-iterating Hayward culture that refuses to ship Django it wouldn't trust itself. We'd rather coach a team-oriented learner than babysit a brilliant jerk, every single time.

Take home $330,000 - $452,000, build your REST API under a mentor, lean on benefits, and shape a full-time week that finally fits.

This req breathes: refreshed hours ago and still very much alive.

We're looking for the person who reads technology job posts and thinks I could fix that.
