The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Lead and grow an engineering team that is building a brand-new service from scratch. The role blends hands-on technical guidance with people leadership, and involves working closely with cross-functional partners to turn plans into delivered work.

What you'll do

- Recruit, organize and lead engineers through the design, build and release of a new data storage service.

- Guide technical direction and architecture choices, weighing the tradeoffs that come with stateful distributed systems.

- Collaborate with product, design and infrastructure colleagues to shape a roadmap and deliver features.

- Coach engineers through hiring, ongoing feedback and performance reviews.

- Encourage accountability and steady improvement on the team while keeping delivery pace in balance with stability and quality.


Requirements

What we're looking for

- At least 8 years as a practicing software engineer who has delivered products, ideally with exposure to stateful or distributed systems.

- At least 2 years managing engineers, including recruiting, coaching and handling performance.

- Enough technical depth to contribute to architecture and design discussions, acting as a player-coach instead of a purely administrative manager.

- A product mindset and a track record of shaping engineering plans around user and company priorities.

Bonus points

- Background working on developer-facing tools, cloud services or large-scale distributed systems.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
