Director of Software Engineering
Full-time
hireVouch
Role Description
We are looking for a self-driven, strategic, and collaborative leader to serve as the Director/VP of Software. As the CTO’s right hand, you will own product development across the full stack—from the Go back-end and Rust parsing layer to the Vue/TypeScript front-end. This is a genuine hands-on role; you are expected to operate as an individual contributor approximately 40% of the time, participating in code reviews, subbing in for engineers, and driving architecture discussions.
Key Responsibilities
- Strategic Leadership & Architecture:
- Own the product development roadmap in partnership with the CTO and Product Management.
- Translate business goals and customer needs into clear technical plans.
- Balance speed, scalability, and technical quality through strategic build-vs-buy decisions.
- People Management & Team Building:
- Oversee and mentor ~5 technical team leads, fostering a culture of ownership.
- Manage the hiring, development, and retention of engineering talent as the org scales.
- Create growth paths for both individual contributors and managers.
- Hands-on Engineering (40% of time):
- Engage in code reviews, prototyping, and debugging complex problems.
- Drive end-to-end web performance analysis (e.g., rendering complex CAD documents with 100k+ elements).
- Lead the development of specialized projects like a 3D rendering engine for PCBs.
Qualifications
- 8+ years in software engineering with 3+ years managing engineering teams.
- Ideally has experience leading organizations of 15+ engineers total.
- Deep experience with Go, Rust, and Vue/TypeScript.
- Experience at a growth-stage startup (Series A–B) is preferred over exclusive enterprise backgrounds.
- Bachelor’s degree or higher in C.S. or an equivalent technical field.
- Background in DevOps, developer infra, or hardware-adjacent domains (IoT/Embedded) is a plus.
- US/Canada residency and authorization required; US citizenship is a plus due to ITAR-regulated customers.
Tech Stack
- Languages: Go, Rust, TypeScript.
- Front-end: Vue, SVG, CSS Selectors.
- Infrastructure: AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, CI/CD pipelines.
