Director - Engineering

Send Cut Send  is the fastest-growing custom manufacturing company in America. We're looking for a hands-on technical leader who's seen what excellence looks like at scale and wants to direct a critical part of the business as we continue to grow.

This leader should be as comfortable on the shop floor as they are writing quality production code. They will report directly to the VP of Product, Growth and Engineering and work closely with teams across the business to make sure we’re building great software that supports our customers, our team and our growth.

Applicants must qualify as a U.S. Person (such as a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident) to be eligible for this position.

Our business is built on reliability, accountability, quality, and constant improvement. Everyone here plays a real role in our success. We value people who are collaborative, innovative, and committed to detailed high-quality work. We're scaling fast and building the future of manufacturing. If you're excited to join the team and grow with us, we want to hear from you!
