My client, a SaaS and mobile product company, is currently looking for a VP of Engineering to join their team. They are looking for someone to help keep best practices in place and implement new policies as they continue to grow and build out their team. This person will be responsible for managing the development teams across multiple offices while helping to maintain their culture, efficiency, and drive as they continue to bring on new projects.

Your daily responsibilities will consist mostly of people management while remaining hands on by owning architecture, design, execution, quality assurance and working with product teams on delivery of their software as a service and mobile products. You will report directly to the CTO, with 2-5 direct reports and about 50 total reports. There will be a focus on process leadership for these product teams while working with them to improve and standardize their development, testing, and release processes.
