BUILD SOMETHING YOUR NEIGHBOURS WILL LOVE We’re building home management for GTA homeowners, and a better way for neighbours and the local Pros they trust to be useful to each other. Our focus is the GTA, and only the GTA for now. We grow one neighbourhood at a time. We’re a local tech company in every sense of the word, and we start with integrity and the belief that good work matters. We believe homeowners should have everything their home needs in one place, and that neighbourhoods work best when trust runs high and stays local. Commissions should be small and charged only on completed work, so the best Pros can actually say yes. Tech companies should go to work for the locally loved Pros of the GTA, rather than trying to get those Pros to effectively work for the tech company. If this resonates with you and you’re at a point in your career and your life where you want to do something uniquely difficult for a meaningful outcome, you’ve found your next home. ROLE OVERVIEW This role has three dimensions: leading engineers, working closely with a Product Manager and Designer as a “product trio", and collaborating with other engineering leaders on common needs and shared concerns. You will be deeply involved in the technical details of your team’s work
- to assist or unblock them, challenge them, and help them improve both individually and as a team. Your leadership responsibilities will generally require about two thirds of your time and attention; the remainder will be spent as a hands‑on contributor in development and/or testing. WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING Engineering leadership:
- Support and manage a team of 3-5 software engineers
- Guide architecture, design, data modelling, and implementation choices within your team
- Set them on a trajectory of continuous improvement
- in technical practices, delivery processes,



and systems thinking
- Create a healthy and cohesive team culture, with high engagement, a solid sense of shared ownership, and the ability to mostly self-organize without relying on your directives
- Involve engineers in discovery, and ensure they understand, internalize and apply the “why” of what they’re working on
- Help each of the engineers improve their craft and grow in their careers, keep them motivated, and provide frequent informal feedback and semi-annual reviews Work closely as part of a trio with the team’s Product Manager and Designer to …
- Discover and understand the needs of your customers
- Experiment with different ways to fulfill those needs to identify which are most effective and engaging
- and which make them want to come back for more
- Assess feasibility, costs, risks and technical challenges of different opportunities and solutions early in the process, and take them into account when deciding which ones to pursue
- Challenge ideas constructively, pushing back on opportunities and solutions that are too costly or risky
- and proposing simpler alternatives
- Break down large features and initiatives into smaller steps for incremental delivery of user value, fast feedback cycles, and adjusting or pivoting as we learn
- Maintain a healthy balance between building new capabilities/enhancements and maintaining the health of the existing product




- in both its functional and technical aspects
- Share accountability for outcomes, not just output Collaborate with other Tech Leads and Engineering Managers on:
- Technical choices, practices and processes which affect multiple teams
- Boundaries and dependencies between teams and their systems
- including domain modelling, API definitions, information flows, and composable UIs
- Improving the way we use infrastructure, CI/CD, test automation, AI assistants and agents, and other tools for development, testing, trouble‑shooting and security
- Hiring
- Engineering culture
- Ensuring that for each subsystem within the product, we have clarity on which team is responsible for maintaining it, supporting it, and serving as the stewards of its evolution and long‑term health WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE
- 7+ years of hands‑on experience in product engineering
- Strong fundamentals in software architecture, design, development, testing and production support
- Excellence in identifying trade‑offs and opportunities for improvement, and good judgment in navigating them
- both in products themselves and in the way your team works on them
- Experience with experimentation, incremental delivery and tight feedback loops, where user behaviour plays a major role in shaping the evolution of the product
- Ability to keep the big picture in mind while working in the weeds
- and pay close attention to low‑level details while working on the big picture
- Track record of fostering and facilitating collaboration, excellence and alignment with both engineers and cross‑functional peers; mentoring engineers; and giving constructive feedback
- Excellent communication, leadership, organizational and problem‑solving skills
