About the role
About
As VP of Engineering at evermore, you’ll lead the engineering organization responsible for building and scaling our proprietary software platform, the technical backbone of a business operating at the intersection of healthcare, retail, and financial technology.
You are a strategic partner to our CTO, Director of Product, and Leadership Team, shaping not just how software is built, but how engineering capability itself evolves as a competitive advantage.
You bring a rare combination: the technical depth to credibly lead architects and staff engineers, the business fluency to influence executive decisions, and the organizational instincts to build and sustain high-performing teams — including distributed and globally blended ones.
Your work will directly and positively impact the lives of everyday people who are older and/or have lower incomes, making healthcare more accessible and personalized for underserved populations — our products make a tangible difference in people’s lives.
Working within an organization created at the intersection of health care, retail and financial technology, no two days will look the same.
Responsibilities
- Own the long-term technical vision for the product engineering organization, ensuring alignment between architectural decisions and business strategy
- Guide teams on system design and architecture, knowing when to build, buy, or partner, and when to invest in foundational platform work versus move fast on delivery
- Introduce and mature ML/AI-informed capabilities within the platform, partnering with data and product teams to identify where intelligent automation and predictive features can drive outsized user value
- Drive the engineering organization’s approach to data, both as a product input and as a tool for measuring the health and performance of the systems you build
- Set and uphold a high bar for delivery quality, velocity, and reliability across multiple concurrent product workstreams
- Establish a mature approach to estimation, technical debt management, and build/buy tradeoffs at an organizational level — not just at the team level
- Benchmark software delivery performance against comparable organizations and use that data to set credible, ambitious targets
- Lead and continuously improve practices across a geographically distributed engineering organization, including teams working across time zones, ensuring consistency in standards, culture, and output quality without friction for your domestic teams
- Lead a multi-layered engineering organization including engineering managers, staff engineers, and individual contributors; you are a builder and developer of leaders
- Partner with recruiting and HR to maintain a staffing plan aligned to product priorities — including proactively identifying capability gaps, succession risks, and opportunities to deepen the bench
- Set the tone: high expectations, fast pace, psychological safety, and a genuine commitment to making Evermore the career highlight for every engineer here
- Coach and sponsor emerging managers and technical leaders, with a demonstrated track record of developing people into bigger roles
- Serve as a trusted technical advisor to the CTO and business leadership, translating complex engineering tradeoffs into clear business terms
- Gather and analyze engineering performance data to drive organizational decisions, surface risks early, and demonstrate impact
- Present and demo work compellingly — to executives, to the board, and across the business — making engineering legible and exciting to non-technical audiences
