Description

Fleetio is looking for a Director to lead our Leverage Engineering Pod, a Division within Engineering whose mission is to multiply the delivery capacity of all of Product & Engineering. You will lead and be accountable for the Pod's strategy and execution through three Squads: Foundations Engineering, which builds the shared frameworks and services every Product Squad builds on; Builder Experience, which exists to modernize our Product Development Lifecycle, pursuing step changes in our ability to deliver software rather than incremental gains, with AI-assisted and agentic development as its current focus; and Solutions Engineering, a new Squad chartered to accelerate the roadmap commitments that win and retain key accounts, extending our capacity through vetted agency partners.

Your customers are mostly internal: the Product and Platform Pods whose speed and quality your Squads exist to raise. You will set the strategy for how leverage is measured across Product & Engineering: the cadence, the expectations, and the evidence that your Squads are making every other Pod faster. The role carries a commercial edge as well: through Solutions Engineering you will select and manage agency partners, oversee statements of work, and make sure contracted work lands as first-class Fleetio code with a clean handoff to a long-term owner.

You will report directly to the VP of Engineering and sit on the Product & Engineering Senior Leadership Team. You will own the Pod's vision, roadmap, and investment case end to end, which means bringing product judgment as well as engineering leadership: discovering what your internal customers need, prioritizing a portfolio across three very different Squads, and making the case for the investment each deserves.
