Head of Product Engineering
Plaud, San Francisco, CA +1
What you will do
- Define and drive the engineering strategy for Plaud's core product: device connection and recording, AI transcription and summaries, shared workspaces and collaboration, admin tools for business customers, and later growth. Each team builds for every customer, from free users to large enterprises.
- Lead, mentor and grow the engineering leads of every product team across the US and Asia, through hiring, coaching and a high bar for craft and delivery.
- Own engineering velocity and quality across the product teams, shortening the path from idea to shipped feature on mobile, web, desktop and the device handoff.
- Partner closely with Product, Design, Platform and Infrastructure to turn priorities into a single roadmap and dated commitments.
- Establish clear end-to-end ownership, so every service, handoff and on-call rotation has one owning team, and teams run what they build.
- Build an operating model for teams that span time zones, with written specs and a fixed daily overlap, and move each team toward a single time zone over time.
- Drive AI-native engineering across every team, including evals in CI/CD, AI-assisted development and fast experiments on AI features.
