This position reports to Rewiring America’s Head of Engineering.</p><p><strong>Requirements</strong></p><h3>What You’ll Do</h3><p>You will be a founding member and leader of a new engineering team that works closely with our Community Implementation, Product, Data Science, and Finance teams to integrate financing opportunities into new and existing electrification products and programs. You’ll work closely with multiple lending partners, find common patterns, and solve for those common and one-off needs across the web services, APIs, and applications you build.</p><p></p><p>You’ll work on a once in a lifetime opportunity to align government incentives, philanthropic dollars, world class data science, corporate commitments, and private finance to decarbonize residential buildings in low income and disadvantaged communities. As part of a new and growing team you’ll be flexible about how you spend your time: you may find yourself prioritizing hiring, writing or evaluating technical designs and documentation, rolling up your sleeves to build a demo, meeting with partners, or wearing the “product hat” to build the first roadmap for your team. And you may ask yourself: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/heat-pump-halloween-rewiring-america-1uwyc/">how did I get here?</a></p><p></p><h3>You will:</h3><ul> <li>Develop a clear understanding of where your team’s work fits into the household electrification ecosystem, and uphold the key tenet of an integrated, “joined up” customer experience throughout.</li> <li>Consult with the Community Implementation, Product, Data Science, and Finance teams from the earliest stage of project explorations.</li> <li>Work closely across disciplines to prioritize and deliver a roadmap that meets the needs of households and the programs that serve them.</li> <li>Manage and grow the team and its members, offering timely feedback and being a trusted coach and mentor.</li> <li>Guide the team toward robust and scalable engineering designs that meet financial expectations for accuracy, timeliness and completeness.</li> <li>Find the right balance across optimizing developer experience and tooling, improving low level infrastructure, and sustained delivery of the product roadmap.</li> <li>Proactively mitigate issues through automated testing, continuous deployment, thoughtful monitoring and alerting, and a healthy postmortem culture.</li> </ul><h3>Who You Are</h3><p>As an experienced Engineering Manager you have a track record of running teams and delivering projects that make a meaningful difference to the customers they serve. As a <a href="https://blog.pragmaticengineer.com/the-product-minded-engineer/">product-minded engineer</a> you consistently focus on the “why” of your work, meeting the needs of the real people behind the project requirements. You are driven by a commitment to Rewiring America’s <a href="https://www.rewiringamerica.org/about">values, vision, and mission</a>.</p><p></p><p>You’re capable yet humble about build-vs-buy decisions: both willing and able to create software that meets our objectives, but equally comfortable driving the evaluation and implementation of SaaS or open source options where those are a better fit for our needs. You are both a people manager and a technical leader responsible for the growth and success of your team, and its members. As an experienced people manager you will have the ability to guide, coach, and mentor junior and senior engineers. As a technical leader you can create and evaluate engineering designs, or facilitate discussions to resolve complex tradeoffs.</p><p></p><p>Your work will have an immense impact on historically disadvantaged communities and our ability to reach our climate goals.
