Director of Engineering (Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Area)

About Prometheus Group

Prometheus Group builds enterprise asset management and operations software for the world's most asset-intensive industries. We ship software that plant managers, schedulers, and technicians rely on every day, integrated deep into the systems our customers already run. We are a commercially driven engineering culture where leaders stay close to the work and to the customer.

About the Role

We are hiring a Director of Engineering to lead our EH&S (Environment, Health & Safety) product line. This is a player-coach role: you run delivery and you do the work. You will lead a team building web applications that asset-intensive operators depend on for safety and compliance, stay hands-on with the code, join customers on calls with your developers, and keep engineering commercially honest. This is not a manage-from-above seat.

What You'll Do

• Lead the EH&S engineering team as a true player-coach, staying hands-on with the code and the delivery.
• Own end-to-end delivery for the EH&S product line: quality, schedule, and customer outcomes.
• Join customer calls alongside your developers and live the customer experience firsthand.
• Bridge engineering to non-technical stakeholders across the business, translating technical work into commercial terms.
• Step into the trenches when the situation calls for it: pick up a ticket, review code, unblock the team.
• Own integrations with customer-owned systems such as document systems and ERPs.
• Keep the team commercially grounded and aware of budget, timeline, and business impact.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years in a player-coach engineering leadership role.
• 2+ years managing a team of 15 or more.
• Proven enterprise software delivery experience.
• Hands-on experience integrating with customer-owned systems (ERPs, document systems, and similar).
• Willing and able to write and review code yourself when the team needs it.
• Strong commercial awareness. You build for outcomes, not for its own sake.
• A track record of cross-functional work with non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience deploying to the cloud and to customers.
• Computer Science degree preferred, or equivalent hands-on experience. We value people who got here by doing.

Tech You'll Work With

• Frontend: React.
• Backend: C#.
• Database: PostgreSQL.
• Cloud: deployed to the cloud and orchestrated with Kubernetes, our standard web app stack.

Nice to Have

• TypeScript and .NET.
• Experience across a broader enterprise web application stack.
• Experience with cloud-native, containerized delivery at scale.
• Comfort spending roughly a quarter of your time partnering with stakeholders outside of engineering.
• Experience as the front person bridging technology to the business.

How We Work

This is a hands-on leadership role. You lead from the front, stay close to the code, and are on customer calls alongside your team. We are looking for a builder-leader who owns delivery outcomes and the customer experience, not a manager who directs from a distance. We solve delivery challenges with ownership and ingenuity first, and we build for real commercial impact. It is a demanding, high-accountability environment, and the people who do their best work here are energized by that.
