Engineering Manager

<strong>Engineering Manager</strong><br /> <br /> <strong>The Company</strong><br /> They are the first and largest peer-to-peer marketplace for laundry. Their customers tap the app and outsource their laundry. For them, it’s life without laundry, because we hacked it out of existence. They have solved a second problem too, which is that more and more people of varying backgrounds want to work from home. Luckily most people have an underutilized washer/dryer, which when combined with our Pro app, provides the first-ever manual labor work-from-home gig in the world.<br /> For all users, they are the marketplace for a better life.<br /> <br /> <strong>The Role</strong><br /> You won’t just be the liaison between Product and Engineering—you’ll orchestrate the entire tech symphony that propels their growth.

You know your way around modern web/mobile stacks and track it all with tools like Jira.<br /> ● Product Intuition<br /> You’ve got a knack for understanding UX and product roadmaps. You can translate a PRD into crystal-clear, effective tickets that keep engineers humming.<br /> ● Organizational Superpowers<br /> You don’t just keep your house in order—you keep the entire team aligned, planned, and ready to execute without a hitch.<br /> <br /> ● People Whisperer<br /> Coaching, mentoring, performance reviews—you do it all.
