Compensation
Where you fall within the compensation range is based on how you demonstrate the attributes and competencies required for the role. We mostly reserve the upper half of our compensation bands for internal growth. During your call with one of our recruiters, they can further clarify the salary range and our total compensation.
Overview
The Problem
Flock's device fleet is scaling fast, and Fleet is the core engineering team keeping it all running. You’ll lead a team building and maintaining the internal tools, web services, alarms, and status-tracking platforms that monitor the health of our live device network nationwide. No exaggeration: this work is mission-critical. If a device goes down, our customers feel it immediately, making this team our first line of defense.
This is a player-coach role (60% people management / 40% individual contribution). You’ll split your time between mentoring engineers, driving technical strategy, and staying directly in the codebase so you're never too far removed from what your team ships. If you want to grow a high-performing engineering team while writing software that directly impacts public safety outcomes, this is the seat.
What You'll Own
Lead a team of software engineers, supporting their career growth, managing sprint execution, and driving high-performing team dynamics.
Drive technical strategy, roadmap planning, and microservices design across device monitoring, alerting, and internal health tools.
Write full-stack code using TypeScript, Node.js, and React to deliver real-time dashboards, web services, and robust APIs.
Build and manage containerized applications using Docker, Kubernetes (via Helm), and AWS managed services (S3, API Gateway, SQS).
Leverage modern AI-assisted development tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor, etc.) to streamline workflows and boost team delivery speed.
What This Role Is Not
This isn't a hands-off, purely administrative management job. You will actively review code, contribute to the stack, and solve complex architectural challenges alongside your team.
This is not an RF hardware or field service management position. You will build the software platform, metric engines, and real-time monitoring infrastructure that power physical device operations.
This isn't an isolated feature-building role. You will work cross-functionally across multiple engineering and operations teams to solve high-visibility, mission-critical scaling problems.
