How you can help make a better world of work

Culture Amp is a rapidly growing company empowering our customers to build Culture First companies. Our market-leading, category-defining Engagement product has been the engine of our success. In 2019 we added an award winning performance management solution to our portfolio. These two products together enable us to deliver highly differentiated, powerful and industry-leading capabilities to our customers.

We are looking for an experienced Team Lead to lead our Data Services team in our Engage Product Camp (Camp's are what we call our product teams). The Engage Data Services team is responsible for building and supporting a stable, scalable and future proof backbone of data that will help connect and grow the Engage platform. This role is a key part of enabling us to scale from helping improve the world of work for 25 million to 100 million people.

This new team will own the design and execution of building out a new data publishing platform. Taking learnings from our past endeavors you will help shape the future of how we publish and deliver survey data to the rest of our Engage and the Culture Amp platform.

As part of the Engage Camp, you will have the support of a group of experienced technical leaders who are already leveraging areas such as serverless, event sourcing and distributed event-driven microservices to evolve our overall technical architecture.

This is a Team Lead role that consists of three key areas: People Leadership, Technical Leadership and Delivery. You will lead your engineers by helping to solve complex problems and remove blockers so they can do their best work
