About the Role:

    We are seeking an entrepreneurial and technically strong Director of Engineering - Marketplace to own and scale HighLevel's Marketplace and Developer Ecosystem.
    This is not a traditional engineering leadership role. You will own the entire product lifecycle - strategy, product management, design, engineering, quality, delivery, and operations, with direct accountability for business outcomes.
    You will lead our API Governance, App Marketplace, Developer Platform, Monetization, and Integrations portfolio while building a high-performing organization of Full Stack Builders (FSBs) - autonomous, AI-native engineers capable of taking products from idea to production with minimal dependencies.
    You will operate with the mindset of a product founder, combining deep technical expertise, customer obsession, business ownership, and organizational leadership.

Key Responsibilities:

    1. End-to-End Product & Business Ownership

  • Own product vision, strategy, roadmap, prioritization, and execution across the Marketplace ecosystem.
  • Drive measurable business outcomes, including developer adoption, marketplace revenue, app growth, customer experience, and platform reliability.
  • Own product discovery, UX/design, engineering, QA, releases, and post-launch performance, ensuring accountability from idea to impact.
  • Make strategic decisions on product investments, resource allocation, and trade-offs between growth, quality, speed, and scalability.
  • 2. Build & Scale an FSB Organization

  • Build and lead an organization of Full Stack Builders capable of independently designing, building, testing, shipping, and operating complete product experiences.
  • Hire, mentor, and develop entrepreneurial engineers and engineering leaders with strong product instincts, technical depth, and business acumen.
  • Champion AI-native development practices, leveraging AI tools, agents, and automation to accelerate product development and quality.
  • Establish a culture of high ownership, rapid experimentation, continuous delivery, and minimal organizational handoffs.
  • 3. Marketplace & Platform Leadership

  • Own the evolution of Public APIs, developer tooling, SDKs, App Marketplace, App Studio, monetization infrastructure, and marketplace extensibility.
  • Scale marketplace payments, subscriptions, usage-based billing, rebilling, and payouts with high financial accuracy and reliability.
  • Ensure security, architectural scalability, API governance, developer experience, and operational excellence across the platform.
  • 4. Strategic Execution & Organizational Accountability

  • Translate company objectives and customer insights into product strategies with measurable business impact.
  • Establish clear ownership, success metrics, quality standards, and accountability across the organization.
  • Drive fast, iterative product development without compromising customer experience, security, or reliability.
  • Partner with company leadership on ecosystem growth, commercial opportunities, and long-term platform investments.

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of engineering experience, including 5+ years in engineering leadership, with experience leading multiple teams or engineering managers.
  • Proven experience owning products end-to-end, including product strategy, technical architecture, execution, and business outcomes.
  • Demonstrated ability to build high-performing, autonomous teams and develop strong engineering leaders.
  • Background in SaaS platforms, Public APIs, Developer Ecosystems, Marketplaces, or Integration Platforms preferred
  • Deep technical expertise in distributed systems, API architecture, security, and scalable cloud infrastructure.
  • Strong product thinking, UX sensibility, customer empathy, and commercial judgment.
  • Hands-on experience with modern development stacks, preferably Node.js and Vue.js (or React/Angular).
  • Experience leveraging AI-assisted engineering workflows and automation to improve development velocity.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset, strong ownership, and the ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
