How You Fit In:

You’re an experienced engineering leader who knows how to support and grow a team of skilled Engineers. You understand the nuances of leading individuals at different career stages, helping them navigate challenges and ensuring they have what they need to succeed.

You know your craft — you’ve been a senior developer yourself, so you understand the technical challenges your team faces. You don’t mind getting your hands dirty, whether it’s reviewing code, solving complex technical blockers or jumping in to support a project when needed.

You lead by example, setting a high bar for quality, ownership and collaboration. You’re hands-on when it counts. When challenges arise — whether technical, procedural or team-related — you step in to keep things on track. Your focus is on delivering exceptional digital products while building a motivated, engaged team.

You’re a strong communicator who collaborates closely with leadership, ensuring alignment with department and company goals. You know how to represent engineers’ interests, encourage a great team culture and contribute to STRV’s engineering vision.

In short: We’re looking for someone who embodies our principles, takes ownership and helps build beautiful, high-quality products — and that’s where you come in.

STRV is a software design and engineering team. We’ve earned the trust of industry leaders and bold dreamers the likes of ClassDojo, Barnes & Noble, Minted, Barry’s, MedMen, Autodesk, The Athletic and more.

Here since 2004, we believe in taking on challenges. In turn, we challenge ourselves and our partners, molding every idea into something exceptional.

Our vision is not a convoluted puzzle. It’s simple and honest: We want to do top work. Every design, every line of code, is something STRV proudly stands behind. And this is possible only thanks to our biggest asset — the team.

We are curious individuals that stay busy, and we like it that way. Transform a crazy idea into a product impossible to ignore? We're in. Provide guidance and structure while we're at it? That's what we do.

Fearlessly going all in is what STRV was built on. Our feet may be firmly on the ground today, but our restless resolve isn't going anywhere.
