Director of Software Engineering at Flosum leading a team to build Node.js and Salesforce-integrated products. Driving delivery, performance, and team growth with a focus on engineering excellence.
Responsibilities
Lead, coach, and grow a team of 10 full-stack developers across Node.js services and Salesforce customizations.
Drive measurable improvements in developer velocity using DORA metrics: lead time, deployment frequency, change failure rate, and MTTR.
Compress delivery schedules by breaking epics into small, independently shippable slices and challenging inflated estimates with data.
Own solution performance: latency, throughput, scalability, and cost—set SLOs and hold the team accountable to them.
Establish estimation, sprint, and release discipline; remove blockers; enforce accountability without burning the team out.
Partner with Product, QA, and Infrastructure to align roadmap, capacity, and dependencies.
Recruit, onboard, and performance-manage engineers; build a culture of ownership and speed.
Requirements
10+ years in software engineering with 5+ years leading development teams of 8–20 engineers.
Deep, current hands-on experience with **Node.js** (Express/Nest, async patterns, performance tuning, microservices).
Working knowledge of the **Salesforce** platform—Apex, Lightning Web Components, Flows, REST/Platform Events, and Node.js↔Salesforce integration patterns.
Proven **technical architect** background: designed distributed systems, API contracts, data models, and performance-critical solutions in production.
Track record of **schedule compression**—case studies where you measurably reduced cycle time or pulled in release dates without sacrificing quality.
Strong estimation and planning discipline in Agile/Scrum or Kanban environments.
