Role: Director of Engineering
Are you passionate about new technologies to build innovative solutions? Catchlight is seeking a dynamic Director of Engineering to lead our team in developing products using machine learning, large language models (LLMs), modern web applications, APIs, microservices, and cloud-native architecture.
Created in Fidelity Labs, Catchlight helps financial advisors grow their business by focusing on two simple, yet crucial questions: which prospect should I call next and what might they be interested in. Catchlight can gather up to 2,000 data points on a prospect. These data points can lead to insights which highlight specific needs or interests of a prospect, making it simpler for the advisor to act, saving time and driving 2-3x improvement in conversion.
In this role, you will be a hands-on player/coach, responsible for the design, implementation, testing, and delivery of new Catchlight products and capabilities. Lead the engineering team in designing, developing, and deploying solutions applying modern web frameworks, machine learning solutions, data engineering technologies, microservices, and cloud-native architecture.
Drive the adoption of best practices in software engineering, including code quality, testing, and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD).
Mentor and develop engineering talent, ensuring the team is equipped with the skills and knowledge to excel in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, or a related field is required. Alternatively, substantial experience demonstrating a strong grasp of system design, technology adoption, data structures, algorithms, and a broad range of technologies is also acceptable.
~10+ years of experience in software engineering, with a focus on building B2B and enterprise applications.
~ Proven experience in leading and managing full stack teams in a dynamic startup like environment.
~ Extensive knowledge of modern JavaScript frameworks (e.g., js, Vue.js), Python, SQL, and RESTful APIs.
~ Proficiency in designing and implementing microservice architectures and code-first data pipelines.
~ Proven experience in building and deploying software solutions using AWS public cloud providers
~ Experience with Ruby on Rails is highly desirable.
~ We seek to craft the future of our industry by building new products and services to improve the lives of the diverse set of customers, businesses and financial institutions we serve.
Fidelity Labs is a dynamic workplace that combines the best parts of startup life—building from scratch, adapting quickly, and moon-shot ambition—with the scale and stability of an industry leader. We provide a safe space for startup teams to explore new business ideas, quickly test them with customers, and scale the most promising concepts within an existing business unit, or as a new venture.

We assist companies and non-profit organizations in delivering benefits to their employees. And we provide institutions and independent advisors with investment and technology solutions to help invest their own clients’ money.
