About the Role
We are seeking a Technical Director to take technical ownership of our core product Rentalscape. This role is for a seasoned leader who is highly experienced in Full Stack Architecture and possesses a genuine passion for Site Reliability Engineering (SRE). You will lead an existing, high-performing engineering team and act as the technical custodian of our most important product.
Your focus is the integrity and evolution of the Rentalscape application platform. You will own the "top half" of the stack: the frontend interfaces, the GraphQL services, and the serverless APIs. You will inherit an established group and focus on elevating their output, refining our platform architecture, and ensuring the long-term health of our flagship product.
While our central Ops team owns global infrastructure, you must be a vocal advocate for SRE within the Rentalscape team. We need someone who prioritizes building reliability into the code and driving the implementation of observability and performance standards as a core part of the product.
