As a successful engineering director at Beacon, you'll...

• Manage 6-10 engineers (and eventually managers) on Beacon's Analytics Systems Team, coaching them to pursue opportunities to grow their impact at Beacon, and guiding them to overcome challenges along their journey.
• Develop and share a deep understanding of the Analytics Systems Team's activity and products to facilitate continuous improvement of the team's internal processes and integration with Beacon as a whole.
• Act as a steward of Beacon's engineering practices and maintain high bars for engineering quality, productivity, and accountability while motivating the team to continuously raise those bars over time.

• Ensure your team's longer-term development roadmap is outcome-oriented, up-to-date, aligned with the company's objectives and other teams' priorities, and communicated effectively to other stakeholders within Beacon.
• Own project management responsibilities for team initiatives, including defining scope, managing timelines, and ensuring expectations are set both internally and externally.
• Drive product direction and discovery for the Analytics Systems Team, establishing the processes, venues, and cross-functional connections that build deep product intuition across the team, and owning prioritization decisions that ensure the team is consistently working on the highest-impact problems for Beacon's customers and business.
• Craft, iterate, and execute on a forward-looking strategic vision for how Analytics Systems can reshape how Beacon tackles Life Science projects, supports diagnostic workflows, and enables rapid biomarker discovery using real world data.
