O pozici
Only the best engineers are being built here.
At Productboard, we're building the place where AI-first engineering gets defined. Removing every bottleneck as it surfaces, we are fundamentally reimagining what's possible when AI becomes a first-class partner, not a tool. This is where product engineers learn to operate at their highest level in the AI era. Our target is one number: turn an idea into validated learning twice as fast as we do today.
You would lead the architecture work that makes that possible.
Co budeš dělat
- Work with your Product Manager and Designer to align on the most valuable work to be done.
- Drive high-impact cross-functional initiatives from first principles, making decisive calls based on evolving evidence.
- Provide clarity in their execution model, optimizing for your team to be in the flow, getting rid of blockers, identifying risks in advance.
- Own your team's product surface end-to-end — architecture, on-call, runbooks, debt rhythm — and keep domain health solid even while driving initiatives.
- Drive at least one product or technical initiative with full ownership of outcome — pick the right problem, cut scope before deadlines slip, and kill work that isn't working.
- Bring problems to leadership with two or three options and a clear recommendation; be honest about uncertainty and what would change your mind.
- Collaborate with other Engineering managers to optimize inter-dependencies.
- Work closely with senior ICs on technical direction — attend design reviews, run incidents, explain how your domain is built without scheduling a meeting.
- Own the team's AI-first system: machine-readable contracts, maintained context, executable runbooks, and AI used across planning, coding, review, debugging, and on-call.
- Hire, onboard, mentor and coach your engineers, guiding their career development.
- Make the success of your team visible and create a sense of pride for the achievement done.
- Actively drive the hiring process, with support from TA to ensure your team is well-staffed.
- Act as a knowledge multiplier, sharing what you learn across and beyond your team to raise the bar for everyone.
