  • Set and support a metrics-driven culture, with efficient processes and strong transparency.

  • Work with feature teams across the company to follow the best practices and to deliver high quality code for Reddit’s Web applications.

 

Who You Might Be:

  • Preferred: 4-8 years experience of leading a team of software engineers, as a people manager.

  • 8+ years of experience developing internet-scale software, preferably in platform development roles.

  • Strong experience in setting the goals, execution, and accountability.

  • Strong organizational skills, Influential skills, the ability to prioritize tasks and keep projects on schedule.

  • Excellent communication, planning & collaboration skills
