- Meet with customers to understand their science & what they need from Benchling.
- Contribute to engineering-wide organizational improvements as part of the management team.

QUALIFICATIONS

- 3+ years of experience managing high-performing engineering teams.
- 5+ years of experience as a software engineer, with experience as a technical lead on projects that involve multiple engineers across multiple quarters.
- Managed engineering teams that were responsible for a customer-focused product.
