Director of Engineering

Career TEAM is a leading workforce development organization on a mission to transform lives. As the Director of Engineering, you'll be the technical leader who turns ambitious ideas into reliable, scalable systems, with a focus on cloud platform and infrastructure, application architecture, and team building.

Requirements

• Demonstrated experience hiring, growing, and leading engineering teams through a period of meaningful scale.
• Deep, hands-on expertise with AWS cloud services in production environments.
• Strong working knowledge of Kubernetes on AWS (EKS), container registries (ECR), and Docker-based build and deploy pipelines.
• Proven ownership of observability stacks in AWS — CloudWatch Logs, Metrics, Alarms, CloudTrail, X-Ray, and structured logging practices.
• Production experience with Node.js frameworks (e.g., Express, NestJS, Fastify) and modern JavaScript/TypeScript service design.
• Strong MongoDB experience — data modeling, indexing, performance tuning, and operating at scale (Atlas or self-managed).
• A track record of hands-on leadership on large, technically ambiguous projects — you've been the person teams look to when the stakes are highest.

Benefits

• Competitive compensation package commensurate with experience and aligned with current U.S. market standards for remote roles.
