Sobre
Teams at Ghost are typically made up of 2-4 engineers, often collaborating with designers and infrastructure engineers. The role we're hiring for here will be responsible for managing the engineers on one or more of our teams, helping to plan work in collaboration with our product colleagues, and working directly with our engineers on the day-to-day challenges of delivering working software to production.
Ghost is a full-stack, open source JavaScript web application. The primary technologies on the backend are Node.js/MySQL8, while our front-end stack is a mixture of Ember.js and an increasing amount of React. Any familiarity with our stack will be a big advantage for someone applying for this position.
What you’ll be doing:
- Chatting regularly 1:1 with engineers, listening to their concerns, making sure they’re feeling engaged and productive, and providing specific feedback on performance – both the good and the not-so-good
- Mentoring engineers to help them in their growth to become the best engineers they’re capable of becoming. We’re always looking for opportunities to become better at shipping the right software, confidently and safely
- Running retrospectives to reflect back and using it as an opportunity to celebrate achievements, discover ways to improve as a team, and to identify and remove roadblocks
- Coordinating internal documentation and guides to make sure that our bus factor is healthy, and new team members can be onboarded easily
- Working with support and product leadership to determine our appetite for addressing our prioritized bugs and issues, always staying in touch with whether our publishers are satisfied and advocating for taking the necessary action when they're not
- Participating in the planning process by soliciting context for your teams and surfacing relevant information to the rest of the company
- Identifying coordination/collaboration challenges with other teams and working with peers and leadership to continuously improve how we work as a company
- Participating in our incident response process as a coordinator of major product issues, following up on actions and ensuring they’re seen through to resolution
- Alongside our leadership team, hire and onboard new JavaScript developers: filtering resumes, conducting interviews, evolving our hiring process
- Fostering an environment that feels fun, creative, and joyful — as that is how the best ideas become a reality.
Ideally, we're looking for someone who is...
- A people-leader with lots of experience managing software developers in a remote context
- You've got a background in software development and you're comfortable guiding engineers on how to approach complex technical challenges
- You're familiar with how high-performing teams use cloud native practices, observability tools, Twelve-Factor apps and similar methodologies
- You understand the difference between a highly effective process and one that gets in our way, and you're always advocating for ways in which to improve how we work
- You're comfortable working independently and have a keen sense for when to escalate and ask for help
- You're a life-long learner and experienced in helping others grow to reach their potential
- You’re a clear communicator. As a remote team, concise written communication is absolutely essential
- Total comfort working in a 100% remote environment, at a small company. Ghost is around 35 people, and we intend to stay small
- A location in a timezone between UTC-0 to UTC+3
