Job Description
The Business Operations group is fanatically focused on building systems to accelerate business growth and drive enterprise value. Our portfolio includes CRM and its peripherals, billing, subscription management, finance & accounting, recruiting, business intelligence systems, and more.

- Manage the professional growth, performance reviews, onboarding, offboarding, and resource planning for your entire team
- Directly manage all Tech Leads and individual contributors
- Implement sound engineering practices and processes to deliver roadmap milestones
- Work with Product Managers to determine the proper definition of “done” and push your team to hit goals
