Reporting to the Director of Engineering, you will lead a cross‑functional team of engineers; how visits are captured and verified (mobile, web, IVR), how verified visits are transformed into compliant EVV data for states and payers and the reliability and performance of these flows at scale.

Provide clear expectations, regular feedback, and career development aligned with our engineering career framework.
Cultivate a team culture grounded in ownership, growth, and mutual trust.
Performance & Delivery
Drive planning, execution, and risk management for multiple workstreams in parallel (e.g., state integrations, EVV platform improvements, performance work).
Maintain a single, coherent view of priorities, scope, and timelines , and keep stakeholders informed.

Visit Verification performance (query patterns, background jobs, pagination, caching).
IVR call flows and their integration with the rest of the platform.
Review key designs and pull requests (without being the primary coder) to highlight risks and align work with longer‑term goals.
Champion end‑to‑end visibility for visits: from capture, through verification, into EVV exports, and on to payers and aggregators.
Sponsor “safety net” work (e.g., repor
