I created this sub-publication to share roles that might be interesting to my coaching and workshop clients. Mostly one job a day, mostly remote, mostly hiring for other roles as well, and always interesting.
Excerpt:
Bond is a fast-growing startup that is on a mission to unlock a world where communication knows no boundaries. We leverage cutting-edge technology to make personalized, high-quality sign language interpretation effortlessly accessible to everyone, anywhere.
We are growing quickly, raising a new round of funding, and are seeking an experienced Head of Engineering to help us scale. This technical leader will be a ‘player-coach’, a perfect role for an established engineering leader who has a very strong software development background also as an individual contributor and still loves to build.
You will be responsible for leading our overall engineering function, which includes managing our current outsourced engineering teams, as well as building our future in-house team. You will partner closely with subject matter experts on foundational architectural decisions and with Product and Operations leadership to deliver a world-class user experience. This is a unique opportunity to leverage your leadership experience to shape our technology, our team, and our engineering culture.
As a team of Deaf and hearing individuals – including top-tier ASL interpreters – it is incredibly important that this person comes into the role with the right mindset to build a product that meets the requirements for a wide set of user needs and experiences. Your work will directly impact the pace of innovation in the VRS industry and enhance how hundreds of thousands of Deaf individuals access communication.
Responsibilities:
-
Lead, Manage, and Coach: Lead the growth of Engineering at Bond by managing and coaching our current off-shore engineering teams, while planning for and hiring a talented team of in-house engineers.
-
Ensure Quality and Scalability: Establish and enforce coding standards, review processes, and engineering best practices. You’ll be accountable for system reliability and performance, ensuring that the codebase remains clean, testable, and ready for scale.
-
Be Hands-On: All leaders at Bond are hands-on within their domains; in part because understanding the details empowers leaders to make better decisions and in part because we are a small early stage startup and it’s all hands on deck! The ideal candidate is a systems thinker and a detail-driven doer. You will be working side-by-side with your team to design, write, review and deploy code.
-
Shape a Purpose-Driven, User-Centered Culture: At Bond, we obsess over serving our customers – and exceeding their expectations. You will need to dive deep into the ‘why’ before tackling the ‘how’, foster continuous improvement, and ensure everyone connects their contributions to our broader mission of improving access and communication for the Deaf community.
-
Partner on Technical & Product Vision: Collaborate with the CEO and Product Management to define – and execute – a roadmap that is both ambitious and achievable.
