[Hiring] Engineering Lead @Flashpoint

Role Description

Are you an engineering leader who never stopped being an engineer? Flashpoint is looking for an Engineering Lead II to take technical ownership of Echosec, Strategic Entity Data and Identify. This team is small, senior, and productive: it ships fast, and it does it across a Laravel platform, a Python AI service, and a data pipeline that ingests some of the most sensitive breach and leak data in the industry. If you enjoy owning the architecture as well as the roadmap, being in the code often enough to earn your team's trust, and making hard sequencing calls, we have a role for you.

You will be the engineering half of a partnership with a Product Manager who knows this domain cold, and you will be accountable for the technical direction that partnership depends on. Flashpoint customers use these products to find the threat before it reaches them. The systems you will own are how they do it.

Qualifications

• Led a team of five to eight engineers that owned a customer-facing product end to end.
• Accountable for the roadmap, the architecture, and the on-call rotation.
• Run production workloads on AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Inherited a mature application and made it measurably safer to change.
• Owned a quarterly commitment cycle end to end.
• Treat growth and retention as part of the job.
• Close enough to the code to have credibility with your team.
• Disciplined enough not to become the bottleneck in the code.

Requirements

• Own the technical direction of three product surfaces: Echosec, SED, and Identify.
• Lead the Echosec platform, a mature Laravel application running on Kubernetes.
• Take the AI layer further with a Python service powering natural-language search, summarisation, and agentic reporting over threat data.
• Own the Strategic Entity Data API and ingestion pipeline.
• Partner directly with the Product Manager and other engineering teams across Flashpoint.
• Grow a team of senior engineers and own their career paths, promotions, and performance.
• Represent this team in KPI reviews, commitment reviews, and cross-team architecture forums.

What you will achieve

• Within 30 days: Know the team, understand customer request processes, and share initial feedback.
• Within 60 days: Establish the team's operating rhythm and clarify decision-making with the Product Manager.
• By 90 days: Shape the technical direction for Echosec, SED, and Identify, and run the quarterly commitment cycle.

Benefits

• Base Pay Range: $145,800-$180,000 per year, plus target bonus.
• Diversity: Commitment to fostering a culture of diversity, inclusion, belonging, and equity.
• Culture and Belonging: Opportunities to connect with coworkers through various communication channels and company-funded virtual events.
• Perks: Health and wellness perks like gym reimbursements, expensed lunches, and inclusive employee events.
• Career Growth: Regular one-on-ones, performance reviews, learning opportunities, and formalized career paths.
