Get introduced to vetted companies that are still hiring

WHY WE’RE LOOKING FOR YOU:

Retool is changing the way software is built. We’ve developed the fastest way to build internal tools, saving companies time, resources, and engineering bandwidth. We’re looking for the right people as we build a world-class team to support this mission.

Retool is quickly expanding and we’re looking for a leader on our Infrastructure team. You will lead a team of engineers responsible for building and automating foundational systems for reliability, security, performance, developer velocity and scale. Our Infrastructure function consists of a number of critical functions including cloud infrastructure, data infrastructure, security, developer experience/productivity, observability, internal tooling, and QA.

IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL:

• Hire and develop your leadership bench alongside the existing managers in the org. Inherit a large team with some management in place, with the opportunity to hire incremental and build toward the future.
• Directly contribute to Retool’s strategy through optimizing the latency of the product, maintaining a high-availability service across multiple deployment schemes, and accelerating our engineering team.
• Scale our platforms across teams, to all products, optimizing for latency and throughput.
• Understand internal and external customers from first principles, bringing insights back to your org to accelerate infra investment and maximize impact.
• Communicate and collaborate effectively with other engineering leaders, product managers, and cross-functionally (legal, sales, etc).
• Expertly manage and empower a diverse, talented team of engineers. Similarly, partner with recruiting to continue scaling our team.
• Introduce scalable, repeatable processes that help all Retool teams deliver product and infrastructure.

THE SKILLSET YOU'LL BRING:

• 5+ years of experience successfully leading and managing teams, with at least 2+ years managing managers.
• Champion for engineering through macro process changes
• Deep technical understanding; we don’t expect you to code, but you should be able to navigate our codebase and engage deeply on design and architecture.
• A history of orienting teams and setting strategy toward engineering goals, with a bias toward impact.
• Experience successfully recruiting, building, and scaling teams.
• Operating as a business-owner – caring deeply about our customers, product, and team
• Thoughtfulness around engineering culture, process, and identity
• The ability to navigate ambiguity, manage stakeholders, communicate in a structured manner, and drive maximal accountability and excellence.
• A collaborative skillset to partner effectively with product, design, and go-to-market teams.
