About the role
This is a high-impact role that comes with significant autonomy and requires a self-driven, strategic, and collaborative leader. You will own product development across the full stack — from our Go back-end and Rust parsing layer to our Vue/TypeScript front-end.
What you'll do
Strategic leadership and architecture
- Own AllSpice's product development roadmap in close partnership with the CTO and Product Management
- Make architectural decisions that balance speed, scalability, and technical quality across multiple teams
- Align engineering priorities with business goals and customer needs, translating product requirements into clear technical plans
- Evaluate build-vs-buy decisions and manage technical debt strategically
People management and team building
- Oversee and mentor ~5 technical team leads, fostering a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement
- Hire, develop, and retain top engineering talent as the organization scales
- Set team goals, define development processes, and drive operational cadence (sprints, standups, retrospectives)
- Create growth paths for individual contributors and managers alike
- Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and incident response when needed
Cross-functional communication
- Serve as the primary connector between technical teams (Platform, Parsing, GenAI, Front-end), facilitating alignment and removing blockers
- Partner closely with Infrastructure to ensure smooth deployments, performance, and reliability of production systems
- Work with Customer Success and Sales to understand customer pain points and feed insights back into the development process
