Director Of Engineering (Head Of CMB US Engineering)

Coffee Meets Bagel (CMB) is a women-founded company created to give everyone a chance at love. Instead of asking daters to swipe through infinite profiles, our sophisticated algorithm curates only a dater's best matches in a limited, daily batch of profiles. Our "slow dating" design in our mobile app emphasizes savoring each real connection, and has sparked thousands of lasting relationships. We're a collaborative bunch who care for our daters and our coworkers, and seek empathetic individuals to join us on this journey.

Responsibilities :

• Help set the direction of the company's product strategy in the U.S. and Canada, drive growth through innovation and optimization, and ensure our strategy is executed with the right velocity, quality, and cost effectiveness.
• Drive CMB's generative AI product and technology vision and strategy, both to improve internal engineering productivity and external customer-facing mobile app features.
• Manage the Engineering workforce budget as well as its overall operational costs. Tap your existing network of engineers that can be hired cost-effectively to achieve our longer-term profit margin goals.
• Travel at least once per quarter to collaborate with the Engineering team in Toronto, potential new engineering hubs, and the CMB executive team. At least one annual trip to Asia to meet our CMB Worldwide partners will be required.
• Responsible for engineering team effectiveness - creating business impact at a sustainable pace while maintaining quality and team health.
• Serve as an empathetic people manager and leader of the engineering team, providing mentorship, feedback, and a clear job leveling framework for the team to grow.
