At InventoryLab we are redefining the workflow of thousands of Amazon sellers. We are currently focused on growing our customer-driven team to meet increased demand; adding development, consulting and support staff. We’re currently working on a large iteration (dubbed Optimus Prime as a naming convention), finalizing product and technical documentation, and refactoring code in order to better our architecture. We are searching for a Director of Technology that can help grow our SaaS business by leading our technical team as they expand their skill sets (don’t worry, you’ll be expanding yours).
Though we’re growing, InventoryLab is a small company where each is highly visible within the company. Our Director of Technology is the directly responsible individual for all of our software and web development projects, making sure that the end product matches the desired expectations by working closely with our developers, product manager, and other teammates.
As our Director of Technology, you will be responsible for the design, implementation, and testing of various parts of InventoryLab’s platforms and evaluate (or build) APIs and technology that can be incorporated. You will lead sprint meetings and help write, estimate, prioritize and assign stories while keeping up with app maintenance. You will learn to “think like a user” to see the big picture to understand and implement our product vision. Bringing a new perspective to discussions is expected. You will be expected to write clean, maintainable code, develop and enforce standards for code management and DevOps, and for leading other team members to ensure the output will pass quality assurance tests and deadlines are met.
