About the Role
The Company is seeking a VP of Software Engineering to lead a large team of engineers in the development of digital learning products. The successful candidate will be responsible for defining and driving the engineering strategy, leading and developing experienced engineering leaders, and building systems that foster the growth and success of the engineering organization. This role requires a leader with a strong technical background, superior financial acumen, and a proven track record of delivering scaled software products.
