We mostly reserve the upper half of our compensation bands for internal growth. During your call with one of our recruiters, they can further clarify the salary range and our total compensation.\nOverview\nThe Problem\nFlock's device fleet is scaling fast, and Fleet is the core engineering team keeping it all running. You’ll lead a team building and maintaining the internal tools, web services, alarms, and status-tracking platforms that monitor the health of our live device network nationwide. No exaggeration: this work is mission-critical. If a device goes down, our customers feel it immediately, making this team our first line of defense.\nThis is a player-coach role (60% people management / 40% individual contribution). You’ll split your time between mentoring engineers, driving technical strategy, and staying directly in the codebase so you're never too far removed from what your team ships. If you want to grow a high-performing engineering team while writing software that directly impacts public safety outcomes, this is the seat.\nWhat You'll Own\nLead a team of software engineers, supporting their career growth, managing sprint execution, and driving high-performing team dynamics.\nDrive technical strategy, roadmap planning, and microservices design across device monitoring, alerting, and internal health tools.\nWrite full-stack code using TypeScript, Node.js, and React to deliver real-time dashboards, web services, and robust APIs.\nBuild and manage containerized applications using Docker, Kubernetes (via Helm), and AWS managed services (S3, API Gateway, SQS).\nLeverage modern AI-assisted development tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor, etc.) to streamline workflows and boost team delivery speed.\nWhat This Role Is Not\nThis isn't a hands-off, purely administrative management job. You will actively review code, contribute to the stack, and solve complex architectural challenges alongside your team.\nThis is not an RF hardware or field service management position. You will build the software platform, metric engines, and real-time monitoring infrastructure that power physical device operations.\nThis isn't an isolated feature-building role. You will work cross-functionally across multiple engineering and operations teams to solve high-visibility, mission-critical scaling problems.\nWhat You Bring\nProven track record leading, managing, or mentoring software engineers with a strong focus on team growth and constructive feedback.\nStrong hands-on coding ability with TypeScript / Node.js for backend web services and modern frontend frameworks like React.\nSolid SQL database experience and hands-on familiarity with cloud environments (AWS S3, API Gateway, SQS) and container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, Helm).\nStrategic mindset with experience designing microservices, managing dependencies, and turning complex unknowns into actionable plans.\nPractical comfort using modern AI-assisted engineering tools to optimize team velocity and personal development output.\nCompensation\nIn this role, you'll receive a starting salary between $200,000 – $220,000 + Flock Stock Options. (Base salary is determined by job-related experience, education/training, and market indicators). Your recruiter will discuss this in depth with you during our first chat.\n\nWhy Flock\nEvery community deserves to be safe. Flock builds the technology that makes that real: last year we supported over 1 million criminal investigations and helped locate more than 10,000 missing people. We're 1,700 people building the impossible with over $1B in funding, and the expectations are high on purpose. If you want a role where the stakes are real and the pace matches, this is it.\nSome problems get solved faster in the same room, so we prioritize candidates in Atlanta and Boston. Hub-based roles mean real in-person time with your coworkers. Remote roles exist, and when a posting is open to remote work, it says so.\nthe impossible takes every kind of mind. Flock is an equal opportunity employer, and we know the best solutions come from diverse perspectives, experiences, and skills working together with mutual respect. Everyone is welcome to apply. If you need assistance or an accommodation due to a disability, email recruiting@flocksafety.com; your information stays confidential and is used only to arrange the right accommodation for your interviews.\nOn compensation: we pay fairly for the work. Base salary is determined by job-related experience, education, training, and market indicators. The range in this posting covers base salary only and doesn't include equity, sales bonus plans where applicable, or benefits. The range may be adjusted over time, and this posting may span more than one career level.\nOne last thing: all legitimate communication from Flock comes from an email ending in @flocksafety.com or noreply@ashbyhq.com. We never make offers through messaging apps or third parties, and we never request payment or sensitive personal information during hiring.
