Engineering Director - Platform at GoMining
Worldwide
<p>We are looking for an Engineering Director to own the technology platform behind the GoMining ecosystem.</p><p>This is a senior leadership role for someone who combines deep engineering expertise with strong product and business thinking.</p><p>You will own the Platform end-to-end — technology strategy, architecture, engineering organization, roadmap, reliability, delivery, and its impact on the wider business.</p><p>The Platform powers multiple GoMining products and includes core application infrastructure, authentication and authorization, integrations, shared services, analytics infrastructure, user restrictions, native applications, reliability, and other foundational capabilities.</p><p>This is not a role where success is measured simply by uptime, delivery, or engineering output.</p><p>We expect the Engineering Director to understand where technology creates or limits business value, make trade-offs between long-term architecture and immediate commercial priorities, and build a platform that allows the entire company to move faster.</p><p></p><br />ResponsibilitiesPlatform Strategy & Architecture<ul><li>Own the technology strategy, architecture, and roadmap for
