Identify technical debt, advocate for sustainable engineering, and maintain code quality, performance, and operational health, including on-call and incident response.
Build growth paths for engineers towards higher IC levels or future TLM roles.
Contribute to broader AAX and Chime engineering initiatives as a member of the engineering leadership team.

AI-native fluency, building with LLMs and AI tooling and fostering this practice across the team.
Familiarity with challenges of shipping LLM-powered products (agents, evals, prompt strategies, guardrails, observability) or a strong drive to learn quickly.
Experience supporting and coaching team members on project execution, skill development, and career progression.
Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, with a history of partnering with Product, Design, Data Science, and other partners.
