Description
At Tatum, we're looking for a Head of Engineering & Operations – a hands-on leader who likes working closely with engineers and helping them do good work. At its core, the job is about people: supporting the team, removing the blockers in their way, keeping priorities clear, and making sure what we ship is reliable and useful to our customers. The role spans a few areas – infrastructure, engineering, blockchain operations, and quality management. It's broad, and you'll be close to the work rather than managing from a distance: you'll be leading engineers directly and shaping how it all fits together. At Tatum, we value ownership, flexibility, respect, and practical execution. We work in a fast-paced blockchain environment with flat hierarchies, informal communication, and a strong focus on individual contribution and autonomy. What we need help with Leading the team Run team planning, prioritization, estimates, backlog, and delivery. Support people management, coordination, and day-to-day operational decisions. Improve collaboration across Product, Engineering, Support, and Security. Infrastructure & platform Own infrastructure reliability, observability, monitoring, and on-call. Find and fix reliability, performance, and operational issues before they reach customers. Research, integrate, and operate blockchain networks in the Tatum ecosystem. Support work on Tatum's Dashboard, API platform, backend services, and internal tools. Handle production operations, debugging, and incident resolution. Standards & quality Set technical standards and improve documentation and engineering processes. Define and improve quality and release quality. Cost & commercial Keep an eye on infrastructure and vendor costs, and their impact on COGS and margins. Assess technical feasibility and cost impact for new deals, trials, and commitments. Guide vendor decisions – reliability, SLAs, pricing, and operational fit.
