Perry Street Software

Perry Street Software, owners of two of the worlds largest gay social dating apps, SCRUFF and Jack’d, is hiring a VP of Engineering. Ideal candidates have a minimum of 7 years of professional software development experience, 3+ years managing development teams, and have shipped major software projects. You will be responsible for managing projects distributed across a team of 15 engineers, some based in NYC and others based in remote home offices. There are myriad skills our VP of Engineering must possess and cultivate, but the most important are sincere empathy, crystal clear communication, and technical excellence. These skills are equally weighted. The VP of Engineering is a hybrid role with one foot in management and the other in engineering, and acts as a liaison between project expectations and development tasks.
