Gametime United - Director of Engineering, Fan Experience
Requirements
• A hands-on engineering manager — comfortable spending real time writing and reviewing code alongside your team, not just directing from above • Direct experience using frontier models, AI coding agents/harnesses, and modern tooling to meaningfully improve engineering velocity and quality, and a point of view on where this is headed • A track record of shipping consumer-facing product features that moved measurable business outcomes • Strong cross-functional partnership skills — comfortable operating as a true peer to Product and Design, with your own opinions on what should be built, not just executing their specs • Experience managing full-stack and/or front-end engineering teams, with meaningfulpeople-management experience (typically 5+ years in engineering, including several as a manager) • Familiarity with SQL/analytics to diagnose funnel and feature performance • Experience leading full-stack teams with end-to-end ownership of consumer-facing web and mobile products, backend services, and APIs in a high-traffic marketplace or e-commerce environment. • Strong understanding of modern front-end stacks (e.g., React and React Native), backend services, APIs, and full-stack architecture, with the technical depth to lead teams across the stack. • Experience partnering with Product and Design in a fast-moving, iterative environment (feature flags, A/B testing, rapid experimentation) • A data-driven approach to prioritization and technical trade-offs • Experience in consumer marketplaces or high-intent, high-conversion consumer apps • A track record of building or championing internal tooling/platform investments that compoundedteam velocity over time
Responsibilities
• Hands-on leadership: spend a meaningful share of your time actually coding alongside the team — you lead from the front, not just from the roadmap • AI-forward engineering: set the standard for how your team uses frontier models, AI coding agents/harnesses, and new tooling to generate, review, test, and monitor code — the primary lever for increasing velocity and quality (i.e. fewer bugs, more stable services, cohesive system architecture) together, not as a trade-off • Cross-functional partnership: partner closely, day-to-day, with a dedicated PM and Designer as a trio; bring a real point of view on what the product and features should be, not just how to build them • Velocity investment: partner with product to identify and invest in what will let the team move faster over time — tooling, domain foundation design, tech debt paydown, and better use of AI in the development loop • Risk partnership: partner with product to surface the risks in what’s being proposed, and bring concrete recommendations and proposals for how to mitigate and eliminate those risks over time • Delivery: own the engineering roadmap and execution plan for your area, balancing speed, quality, and technical debt • Mentorship and talent bar: mentor engineers toward their next career level, hold a high talent bar for hiring and performance on your team, and help level up talent on other teams too • Cross-team technical leadership: partner with engineering leads and counterparts on other teams to improve the marketplace more broadly, technically, over time • A team and roadmap tied directly to fan-facing feature velocity, quality, and business outcomes on the demand side of our marketplace
