Fremont, California, United States Harnham Full time

DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING

$200,000 - $230,000 BASE + EQUITY

HYBRID (SAN FRANCISCO)

ABOUT THE COMPANY

This rapidly growing biotech company is at the forefront of advancing genetic health insights. By leveraging cutting-edge technology, they provide individuals with secure and actionable genomic data to support long-term health decisions.

The company has recently launched new products, gained a growing customer base, and is positioned for significant expansion in the coming year. This is an opportunity to lead and scale an engineering team in a high-impact environment.

THE ROLE

The Director of Engineering will take on a leadership role within a small but expanding engineering team (currently 10 members). As the current engineering lead transitions into a CTO role, this position will be responsible for overseeing team growth, driving technical strategy, and ensuring scalable development practices.

While primarily a leadership role, this position will involve some hands-on work (approximately 10 percent of the time). The ideal candidate has experience managing small teams and scaling them into larger, high-performing organizations.

ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Lead and mentor a growing engineering team, establishing best practices and fostering a collaborative culture.
  • Define and execute technical strategies to support company expansion.
  • Maintain a hands-on approach when necessary to guide development efforts.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams, including data science and product, to build scalable solutions.
  • Develop and implement systems to enhance the company's genetic data platform.

SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

Must-Have:

  • Proven experience in an engineering leadership role, ideally at the director level.
  • Strong background in Python development.
  • At least 8 years of industry experience, with a preference for candidates from biotech, genomics, or other scientific fields.
  • Experience leading small engineering teams and scaling them as the company grows.

Nice-to-Have:

  • Background in genetic testing or related industries.
  • Experience working across multiple organizations, bringing diverse engineering perspectives.
  • Familiarity with frontend technologies, even if primarily focused on backend development.

BENEFITS

  • Compensation: $200,000 - $230,000 base salary + equity.
  • Work Arrangement: Hybrid schedule

This is a unique opportunity to shape the engineering function within a growing biotech company. If you have a passion for leading technical teams and building scalable solutions in the genomics space, we would love to hear from you.
