Director of Engineering

United States

Prismatic is the integration platform that helps B2B software companies build integrations fast and deliver them at scale. We're turning integrations from a bottleneck into a growth driver for hundreds of companies, from high-growth startups to Fortune 500s.

Our platform handles everything that breaks at scale, so teams can ship integrations, not infrastructure. It provides flexible, AI-enabled build experiences through code-native, low-code, and an embedded workflow builder, plus self-service configuration and an embedded marketplace.

Prismatic is well-funded with strong product-market fit and a high-agency, driven, collaborative culture.

About the role:

We're hiring a Director of Engineering to lead the Engineering organization. This role reports directly to the CTO and is the single engineering leader across two teams currently totaling 8 engineers, with a plan towards ~12. This is not a manager-of-managers role today, you’ll be directly managing the team. The ideal candidate is someone excited to directly lead a team of high performing Senior+ Engineers. Beyond the people management side, you'll own the full scope of execution: process, feature delivery, quality, while maintaining a highly engaged group of people.

Prismatic is built primarily in TypeScript (both frontend and backend), with some Python and Django on the backend and React on the frontend. We build a sophisticated low-code integration builder, an SDK and tools for building integrations fully in TypeScript, and features powering our customers' AI agent functionality. All of this on top of a high-scale, performance critical platform. While this is not a hands-on building role, being confident in the technology, and the challenges of a scaling a developer facing SaaS platform will be crucial to high quality decision making.

What will you do:

  • Partner with Product to drive execution across all initiatives; on-time delivery, quality and consistency.
  • Manage, coach, and grow all engineers directly, regular 1:1s, high-quality feedback, and growth conversations.
  • Staff each initiative and pair it with the right Tech Lead; develop the Tech Lead bench so ownership keeps spreading.
  • Surface and resolve cross-initiative risks: staffing gaps, priority collisions, delivery delays.
  • Contribute to hiring: help us find, close, and ramp the next several engineers.
  • Contribute technically where it helps, this isn't day-to-day code, but helping with architecture review, tech-debt analysis, scaling challenges, etc.

About you:

  • Demonstrated progression from a technical role to a leadership role, with demonstrated experience managing multiple teams of Engineers in a fully remote environment.
  • You've operated as the senior-most engineering leader in a group, or close to it; comfortable being the only manager, without a layer beneath you.
  • Significant technical experience in at least one area of our stack; able to speak credibly in architecture and scoping conversations.
  • Proven partner to Product on scope, estimation, and delivery commitments.
  • Experience managing remote teams; excellent written communication
  • Thrives on accountability, bias to action, strong desire to empower individuals and win as a team.
  • Experience at a scaling SaaS startup in varying roles.

Bonus if you have experience with/in:

  • AI-enabled software development
  • Developer-facing products
  • High scale SaaS platforms

Our tech stack:

  • Cloud - AWS
  • Databases - Postgres, Redis
  • Backend API - Python & Django
  • Backend Integration Platform - Typescript
  • Frontend - Typescript & React
  • SDKs - Typescript

Pay range:

  • The pay range for this role is $220,000 - $250,000/yr, plus equity 
  • Most new hires start near the midpoint based on their relevant experience, skills, and qualifications, with room to grow within the range over time.

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
