Director of Engineering

We're looking for an Engineering Director to lead multiple product engineering teams responsible for building and evolving Linktree's core user-facing experiences. The role involves leading engineering execution, setting technical direction, and ensuring delivery excellence. The ideal candidate has a strong technical foundation, experience leading product engineering teams, and a collaborative leadership style.

Requirements

• Proven experience leading multiple product engineering teams in a product-led, consumer-facing environment.
• Strong technical foundation in modern web development and architecture (TypeScript, React, GraphQL, AWS).
• Deep understanding of how to ship and scale user-facing products with a high bar for UX, performance, and polish.
• Comfortable operating across levels — from org design and strategy to critical technical and delivery decisions.
• Strong instinct for connecting engineering execution to business metrics — you think in terms of conversion, retention, and revenue impact, not just shipping features.
• A collaborative, empathetic leader with strong cross-functional communication skills.
• Delivery-oriented with excellent instincts for prioritization, sequencing, and tradeoff management.
• Thrives in ambiguous, high-opportunity spaces where the strategy is still being shaped.
• Curious and AI-forward, actively using automation and LLM tools to boost team effectiveness.

• Employer contribution towards your retirement
• Generous time off for vacation, holidays, parental leave, volunteer time, and other categories.
• Employee stock option program
