Director of Engineer
Recast is looking for a highly motivated and entrepreneurial Director of Engineering to help us accelerate our engineering and product development practice.
What you'll do in your first 6 months:
• Improve upon our culture of shipping and accountability on the engineering team
• Continue to drive adoption of AI tools for development and integration of AI-first workflows into the product
• Hire a lot. We need to rapidly grow our software engineering team while still keeping the quality bar high and maintaining a culture of product and engineering excellence.
• Own our tech security practice and SOC 2 certification and compliance program
Things that should excite you that might scare off other folks:
• Working across a range of technologies – from Rails to AWS & k8s infrastructure, to running #rlang in production
• Working with a fully-remote and globally distributed engineering team across a variety of timezones
• Working with a large number of direct reports – we’re a flat organization and we plan to keep it that way
Familiarity with the following would be nice to have, but aren’t required:
• Ruby on rails
• AWS and/or cloud-first architectures
• Kubernetes and distributed compute generally
• Building products with data science / machine learning / algorithmic components
What we offer you:
• Work wherever you’re happiest. We're fully remote
• Competitive remote salary along with early-stage equity
• Highly skilled coworkers you can learn from and who are eager to learn from you
• An async-first culture with a focus on documentation over standing meetings
• Autonomy and support to do your best work in your own time
• Your local holidays plus unmetered PTO (minimum 2 weeks mandatory PTO!)
As our Director of Engineering you’ll be leading our full engineering organization made up of three subteams: app developers, R developers, and infrastructure / platform engineers. The Recast product and delivery model is very complex so shipping features often requires fairly intense inter-team collaboration to provision compute, develop algorithms, and then present something human-usable to our end customers.
Note: Recast is committed to building a diverse team so if you are from an under-represented background in tech (e.g., women, BIPOC, etc.) please apply even if you don’t necessarily check all of the boxes here.
While Recast is officially based in the US, we're a fully remote team (one founder lives in Brooklyn, the other in Mexico City and team members in 6+ countries around the world).
If this sounds interesting to you, we'd love to learn more about you! If you have examples of contributions to publicly available and widely used R packages, we highly value that so please make sure to include it in your application!
