Job description:
We are looking for a Director of Engineering to lead the Frontend Technologies domain within Marketplace. In this role, your mission will be two-fold:
1. Pivot our frontend setup for bigger efficiency: we have been operating in mostly the same frontend setup for at least 6 years, and recognize that change is imminent.
2. Drive strategic engineering initiatives: architect and implement platform-specific changes that enhance modularity, autonomy, resilience, and performance across Android, iOS, and Web.
You will have to balance and prioritize foundational capabilities - such as Design Systems, CI/CD, Modularization, App Releases, Performance, and Global UI quality - to optimize both frontend developer velocity and user satisfaction.
You will lead 4 Engineering Managers and 3 Staff Engineers and set and implement the FE strategy, which will impact the roadmaps of 9 Product domains within the Marketplace.
Strategically:
Ensure the most effective frontend setup for the Marketplace. We have 40+ teams, each with 3 frontend engineers (iOS, Android, and Web) in the Marketplace unit. We know this will look different in two years. Deciding what different means, and getting 9 product domains to fund it, is the job
Drive Technology Strategy: Set and drive the future technology strategy for frontends, establishing a modular, scalable architecture that enables rapid development and strategic growth. Basically - raise the technological bar for all Marketplace unit.
Refine the domain's identity:Take sole ownership of shaping its future, successfully integrating Design Systems and engineering to treat our frontend platforms as a cohesive product.
Tactically:
Lead frontends: Lead a horizontal, platform-focused domain containing Android, iOS, Web, and Design System teams.
Lead Initiatives: Oversee Marketplace-wide technical tooling, core libraries, and frameworks. Lead strategic projects, i.e., frontend modularization and modernization (SwiftUI/Jetpack Compose), native automated testing.
Elevate global UI quality: Integrate design systems and accessibility into the frontend ecosystem to consolidate technical, visual and interaction quality standards. Support UI experimentation.
Ensure Resilience & Reliability: Maintain robust release processes, Marketplace frontend quality, and performance monitoring to reduce downtime and ensure a consistent member experience.
Innovate & Optimize: Drive AI-efficiency enablement in frontend development and explore cross-platform frontend development opportunities to increase engineering speed and productivity.
A lot of this work will be influencing without formal authority: Champion the frontend technical vision among your director peers, influencing the leaders of 9 Product domains to accommodate and prioritize platform-wide changes across 40+ teams.
How much of a technical acumen? Enough to have in depth conversations with our direct reports. You will have 4 strong technical EMs reporting to you, as well as 3…
